The couple with the most votes and were therefore axed from the show was Mica and Samraj – who received a whopping eight votes.

As Mica and Samraj said goodbye to their fellow islanders, they headed back to the bedroom to pack their belongings, where they were interrupted by a text.

Reflecting on her exit, Mica said: 'We got a text in the morning saying that we were going to see some familiar faces.

'Honestly, I was really excited to see everyone. I never had an issue with leaving and people voting us out. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions.

'As long as Samraj and I are good, we know what we have, I'm so obsessed and smitten with this man. I just feel so lucky that I have him while leaving as well.

'I don't think I'd be able to do this at all if I didn't have him. He is so supportive and he's been there for me throughout the entire journey.'

Samraj added: 'Every time me and Mica stood up there, and we stood up there a few times, I've always fought for us because it wasn't our time.

'Now that we're in love, she looked at me and said, 'If we go, are you okay to go?' I'm happy to go this time. This was the first time I was happy to go. What didn't sit right with me was some of the justifications people were using.

'People have mentioned friends-to-lovers as a reason. I don't get that. If anything, you have more of a solid foundation.

'I can't wait to prove people wrong. In five years' time, six years' time, Mica's got a big ring on her finger and she's expecting - ''Oh, friends-to-lovers doesn't work?'' I can't wait. Time will prove stuff.'
