Love Island fans in shock as fan favourite couple are DUMPED in brutal eviction - before return of ex-Islanders is teased in dramatic twist
The couple became the latest Islanders to get axed just days ahead of the final on Monday as the final days in the villa get well and truly underway.
Their exit was announced while the remaining couples were still on their final dates in a savage twist, and viewers were left stunned by the verdict.
Megan and Conor's relationship was cut short when she was dumped however the couple got a second chance when she re-entered the villa last week.
That wasn't the only surprise of the night as a teaser at the end of the episode revealed that the dumped Islanders would be retuning.
Sunday night will seen previous contestants reenter the villa with 'big choices' to be made by the cast.
It comes following Thursday's brutal double dumping which saw Helena Ford and Blu Chegini booted out of the villa.
The couple were eliminated just days ahead of Monday's final and it marked the second time for returning Islander Blu, who was given a second chance at love.
However, not all viewers were shocked as it had been leaked after eager fans spotted the boys filming in the village of Sant Llorenç in Mallorca, with Blu notably absent.
Helena and Blu found themselves in a friendship couple after Harry Cooksley decided to rekindle things with Shakira Khan just days after going exclusive with Helena.
And things weren't meant to be as Helena and Blu got the fewest votes from the public and were brutally dumped via text just moments after the talent show.
Fans were quick to take to X - formerly known as Twitter - to comment on how savage it was for Helena to be dumped directly after being crowned the winner of the talent show.

I sold my UK house to buy my dream home in Spain, it comes with a massive pool and saved me £100k
A WOMAN has revealed why she ditched the UK for sunny Spain as she showed viewers her new home. Taking to social media, the mum-of-two and her husband left England to start a new life in Alicante. 3 The mum, who goes by gbfitnessuk2spain on TikTok, revealed she had a wake up call when her best friend sadly passed away. The mum, who was sick of 'just surviving' and 'working to pay the bills,' so decided to leave behind her life in the UK and hasn't looked back. She moved abroad with her partner, daughter and son, but her son soon decided he wanted to stay in the UK and live with his grandparents, visiting the family for regular holidays in their new home. In a recent clip, the mum showed her new house in Spain which was part of a gated community. The massive house had a huge driveway which took 'ten minutes to walk around.' To the side of the house was a massive private pool the family owned with plenty of space for sun loungers. At the back of the house was yet another seating area fenced in to keep her dog Poppy safe. There was also a smaller building to the side of the house which the mum planned to turn into a games room, Alongside the pool is a table tennis area, trampoline, outdoor shower and a bowls area. As if that wasn't enough, the family also had their own private trail leading from the house which was perfect for long dog walks. I ditched my retail job in the UK for island paradise…rent is just £225, dinner costs £2 & our poolside office has a spa To top it off, up at the highest point of the land, the family were building a fire pit area to make the most of the scenery. The family were loving their new life in the sun, and she revealed the house which was significantly bigger than her home in the UK cost them £100,000 less. The clip went viral with over 72k views and many people took to the comments in awe of their new home. One person wrote: "That's what you call living the dream. Any insights into the financial aspect?" "Houses out here are a lot cheaper than the UK and if you go inland you get a lot more for your money," she replied. "We sold our UK home and this was 100k less. I'll do a video of our UK home and you can see the comparison in size and what you get for your money." Moving house hacks 1. Declutter Before You Pack Sort through your belongings and get rid of anything you no longer need. Donate, sell, or recycle items to lighten your load. 2. Create an Inventory Make a list of all your items. This helps keep track of everything and ensures nothing gets lost in the move. 3. Use Quality Packing Materials Invest in sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, and packing tape. This will protect your belongings during the move. 4. Label Everything Clearly label each box with its contents and the room it belongs to. This makes unpacking much easier and more organized. 5. Pack a 'First Day' Box Include essentials like toiletries, a change of clothes, snacks, and important documents. This will keep you from rummaging through boxes on your first day. 6. Take Photos of Electronics Setup Before unplugging your electronics, take photos of the wiring setup. This will make it easier to reconnect everything at your new place. 7. Use Suitcases for Heavy Items Pack books and other heavy items in rolling suitcases. This makes them easier to transport and reduces the risk of injury. 8. Colour-Code Your Boxes Use different coloured stickers or markers for each room. This will help movers quickly identify where each box should go in your new home. "Sooo much property and land for your money over there. you can see why so many people do it," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "I'm tired just watching that, it's huge! Looks absolutely amazing." "What a beautiful plot it sits in, loads of land, good luck with everything,' claimed a fifth
