A LOVE Island couple have been dumped from the villa just days before the final – missing out on the show’s bumper £50K cash prize.
The Sun can exclusively reveal how the duo, who have already made their relationship official, have left the ITV2 villa for good.
It came after a sweet moment for the pair in the Meet The Parents episode this week.
Yet they have already been sent packing – with the remainder of the Love Island couples left stunned by their swift exit.
During Monday’s episode, one lucky couple will be crowned the winners of the 11th series and take home the £50,000 cash prize.
Yet there will now only be three couples bidding for the life-changing amount of money – with the latest eviction to be aired on Sunday’s instalment.
On Fridays’ episode, sweet seller Sean Stone got a text that told stars to go off in their pairs and pick the two couples they believed wouldn’t last on the outside world.
Aside from Ciaran Davies and Nicole Samuel, who are the only official boyfriend and girlfriend in the villa, each pair received at least one vote.
This means of the remaining couples, either Sean and Matilda Draper, Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan, Ayo Odukoya and Jess S, and Joey Essex and Jessy Potts have been given the boot.
The Sun has gone to Love Island for comment.
Viewers have already been speculating on the outcome of the dumping – with fans already calling out an alleged “fix.”
They reckon Josh and Mimii will be hot on the heels of Grace Jackson and Reuben Collins, who were dumped from the villa earlier this week.
Loyal ITV2 fans think Joey and Sean will attempt to persuade their co-stars to persuade their partners to vote out the duo after their rocky start.
This is despite the fact they became exclusive days ago.
One fan took to social media to muse: “Producers making sure Mimi and Josh gets dumped.”
A third said: “The whole house will vote mimi Josh because mimi isn’t allowed to move for Ayo rejection! They are convinced she should be on the floor begging Ayo back.”
Love Island is back on the box with a batch of sexy islanders all looking for love this summer.

They also accused bosses of “stepping in” for Joey following a key scene.
Meanwhile, it was revealed the former dumped Islanders would make a shock return during Monday’s final episode.
The final instalment of the ITV2 series will air on July 29, starting at its regular time of 9pm.
Host Maya Jama will enter the villa and announce the winning couple.
Back in 2023, Jess Harding and Sammy Root were crowned winners on July 31.
