Love Island fans were raging after Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowacki finished in second place during the final.
On Monday (July 31), Jess Harding and Sammy Root were crowned winners of the hit ITV2 dating show, with the couple also beating third place Tyrique Hyde and Ella Thomas and fourth place Zachariah Noble and Molly Marsh to the top spot.
Delighted for their friends, the couple told host Maya Jama that Jess and Sammy were their deserved winners.

“They were our winners all along. We’re over the moon for them,” gushed Lochan as Whitney agreed.
Whitney, 25, has been coupled up with Lochan, 25, since Casa Amor and fans have watched their relationship blossom into something special.
They have become loved amongst fans and were even revealed as the public’s favourite couple.
After the winners were announced, seething fans headed straight to their keyboards to fume over the result.
One viewer shared: “Am I tweaking or didn’t Sammy literally say he wasn’t attracted to Jess. Whitney and lochan were robbed.”
“WTF WHITNEY didn’t WIN ?? How did Sammy and Jess win? WHIT & LOCAN YALL WERE ROBBED. WTF,” fumed a second person.
Another fan echoed: “Nah. I’m done with this show. Whit was robbed. She’s still a winner to me and wishing her the best with all what’s next to come for her.”
“MATTEEEEEEE IM LIVID. WHITNEY AND LOCHAN HAVE BEEN ROBBED,” exclaimed someone else.
While a fifth added: “Surely, they announced the wrong people being the winners, I mean there was error after error tonight. Someone fess up. The only possible winners was Whitney &Lochan. Anything other than that is wrong.”

During the Love Island ball, Whitney and Lochan stood in front of each other read out their letters of declaration in front of the villa.
Whitney said their journey was the “too good too be true” kind, before telling Lochan she couldn’t wait to continue things on the outside.
While Lochan admitted Whitney had made the experience the best of his life, later revealing he could see himself “truly falling” for her when they leave the villa.
