Your support makes all the difference.Amber and Greg have won Love Island 2019 in a shock final after favourites Tommy and Molly-Mae came in second.
The winning couple was voted for by the public, with runners-up Maura and Curtis, and Ovie and India coming 4th and 3rd, respectively.
In the live final, the couples attended a “ball” where they were able to dress up and read declarations of love to one another, with many viewers praising Greg and Ovie’s speeches for being particularly moving.
As presenter Caroline Flack announced the winning couple, Amber was shown with a shocked look on her face. As per tradition, one half of the couple was asked to choose whether to take the money for themselves or split it with their partner -- Greg chose to split the £50,000 winnings with Amber.

One Twitter viewer: "Love Island is s**t this last week, I only watch it for the drama not actual love. F**k off."
Why is Love Island trying to make see-through trousers happen. I know fashion sometimes takes inspiration from literature but the Emperors New Clothes is a bit much.
Now it's time for the lads to get dressed up... as waiters, apparently.
