‘Who is controlling the votes?’: Ex-Islanders react to the Love Island 2023 final

A flurry of ex-Islanders have shared their reactions to the Love Island 2023 final, which saw Jess and Sammy crowned the winners. While some people were overjoyed with the results, not everyone could say the same, especially those were once in the same position as the winners.

From Islanders from previous seasons to those dumped only weeks ago, here’s a rundown of what every ex-Islander has had to say about the Love Island 2023 final.

Andre Furtado

Andre was only in the villa for a matter of weeks, but he did have a journey like the rest of the Islanders. He was live tweeting during the final, sharing his thoughts about his co-stars, and shared a sentiment a lot of viewers held when Jess and Sammy were announced as the winners.

“QUEE? Ye. Who is controlling the voting monitor? I need to chat to you,” he tweeted once the winners were announced. However, he did later congratulate them in the comment section of Love Island’s Instagram post.

Yikes!
