In a final that saw the islanders tango with their partners, recite cringeworthy speeches and Caroline Flack multitasking like nobody in the history of television, the winners of Love Island 2018 were finally announced.
After two months, Dani and Jack became the 2018 winners of Love Island and, it's safe to say, nobody was shocked as the pair have the publics hearts in their sun kissed hands:
And the winners of Love Island 2018 is.....

The fact dani and jack have genuinely waited till they are in their own privacy and away from cameras to “Do bits” says a lot about how much they are down for one another ?? #LoveIslandfinal #Loveisland

The couple have been favourites to win the show since week one. In running order, Megan and Wes came in fourth place, Kaz and Josh came in third and Laura and Paul came in second place.

Dani and Jack couldn't take just walk away with 50k. The couple had to choose between splitting the 50k as a couple or keeping it for themselves. Jack had 50k and chose to share it with Dani, rather than keeping it for himself.
The biggest shock of the night came when Josh and Kaz came in third place behind Laura and Paul. The couple has been one of the favourites to win after Dani and Jack for the last two weeks and Twitter wasn't happy:

That being said, a lot of people were thrilled that Laura came second after her struggles finding love in the villa:
Why are people so shocked at Laura being top 2? She:
-Got her heart broke twice
-Forgave Megan and sat there doing her hair for her date with her EX
-Wiped new Laura’s tears over Jack
-Is there for everyone even when they fuck her over
-Is a babeSHE DESERVES IT ❤️ #LoveIsland

I am so so happy for classy Classic Laura. She’s a belter and she and Cool Hot Paul look great together. I have high hopes. #LoveIsland

Laura has been the Camilla of the series. Had a rough journey but ended up with the best looking guy. Even if she doesn't win, she's won coz Paul is gorgeous #LoveIsland

Laura is without a doubt the best thing to come from this series. Setting a standard of girl that everyone should aspire to be a little more like. Her personality and dignity throughout has astounded me. Diamond ? #loveisland
