Love Island fans accuse Dejon of 'planning to win £50k' as he asks Meg to be his girlfriend just weeks before the final
The couple have been through their fair share of rocky patches, with Dejon getting to know multiple girls throughout their relationship and in Casa Amor.
In recent weeks, the pair have gone from strength to strength after the personal trainer finally put his flirty antics behind him and stuck by 'his Meg'.
But some viewers still believe Dejon is not showing his true colours, going as far as accusing him of 'planning to win the £50,000 prize' if they're crowned the winners.
During the episode, Dejon bagged the prime opportunity to make things official with Meg as they were whisked off on on a romantic first date away from the villa.
Sitting against a perfect sunset backdrop, the footballer sealed the deal and asked her to be his girlfriend.
Viewers on X accused Dejon of plotting to win the show, having popped the question just weeks before the finale.
Comments read: 'They are acting like they've just announced an engagement',
'I'm sorry I DO NOT BUY IT. Dejon didn't give Meg a hug yesterday when she asked for one to cheer her up.
'He said he couldn't be arsed and now he's asked to be boyfriend/girlfriend?!?! #LoveIsland #LoveIslandUK',
'Toni and Shakira are speaking for all of us',
'Whatever Dejon and Meg are selling, I am not buying - this whole relationship is a scam',
'Meg announcing her & Dejon are official was giving this except no one likes Meg enough to tell her that Dejon is messing her about',
'Idk why people are calling toni and shakira mean girls. They just said they are happy for meg but all it is is that they can see through dejon's game. Asked to be exclusive 2 days ago nd now bf and gf. PLEASEEE #LoveIsland #LoveIslandUK',

Naked Attraction host Anna Richardson details her experience dating both men and women as she reveals which gender she finds easier to be in a relationship with
Naked Attraction host Anna Richardson has revealed which gender she finds easier to date as she reflected on dating both men and women. Anna split from former Bake Off host Sue Perkins, 53, in June 2021 after eight years together, with a source stating at the time that they were both 'devastated'. She has been dating charity boss Simon Perkins since October 2022 after they met through mutual friends - whom she says brought 'a huge injection of energy' to her love life. Reflecting on her time dating both men and women, Anna explained to The Sun that being with a man is 'less complicated and less emotional'. She explained that being with a man is a 'cliché' as she quipped that 'as long as you feed them and let them watch footie' then they are happy. Anna told the publication: 'Dating a guy is, in some ways, less complicated'. 'Dating a woman means you understand each other implicitly because you're both female. 'Both parties understand that they're emotional creatures. This can be very challenging and intense, but also very exciting.' Anna was previously with partner Charles Martin for 18 years prior to beginning a relationship with Sue in in 2013 after meeting at a Halloween party. At the time of her break-up with Sue, a source told The Sun: 'It's really sad. Both Anna and Sue are devastated. 'We're all hoping they can patch things up and sort out their differences but for now it appears to be all over.' Meanwhile, in May 2022, the TV star admitted that 'you never get used to heartbreak' following their split in a revealing interview. The presenter spoke to OK magazine about love as well as her fears of growing older, admitting she's 'filled with dread' at the prospect of what could happen in the future. She explained: 'I suppose I don't know whether you become more resilient as you get older, but heartbreak is still that mystery that needs to be solved, and how you get over it and become stronger'. The couple, who dated for eight years, allegedly parted ways after Sue's reluctance to start a family, with Anna previously revealing she had thought about adopting a child and felt that 'time is running out' for her to do so. Anna went on to reveal, 'it's a really fundamental and visceral realisation [if you haven't had children] that, 'Oh my God, I can't do that anymore.' Even if I wanted to.' She added that she feels 'slow, inexorable dread' when she thinks about the next 30 years of her life, saying: 'It seems to be a bit of a decline. And it's very, very difficult.' MailOnline exclusively revealed in June 2022 that nobody else was involved in Sue and Anna's decision to split, which the couple made with 'a heavy heart'. A source said: 'The split is as amicable as these things can ever be. After so long together it wasn't an easy decision to make and they both did so with heavy hearts. 'But Sue and Anna are determined to remain friends and keep in touch. Nobody else is involved and now the pair are throwing themselves into work.' It was reported Anna moved out of their shared £2million North London home to live in Staffordshire to be close to her mum, who is caring for her father who is suffering from dementia. Speaking to The Telegraph in 2015 about the start of her romance with Sue, Anna explained she had known Sue for years, but it was a meeting her at a party after her separation from Charles, that made her realise she felt something more than just friendship. She gushed: 'When I was invited to the party, I was told Sue would be going and I felt, what, a frisson? A spark of interest? And I thought: 'Hmm, that's interesting'. There was something in the air. 'It was an extraordinary night. I was dancing on the table. It felt like a defining moment in my life.' She wasn't keen on giving herself a label in regards her sexuality at the time, after she had previously spent almost two decades with a man. 'For me, it's just a case of I am who I am. I'm not interested in being labelled gay or straight, my sexuality is fluid. I just happen to have fallen in love with a woman - simple as that,' she explained.

Ella Toone's emotional tribute to late father moments after Euro 2025 final win
Ella Toone paid tribute to her late father Nick moments after England won Euro 2025, in what was the midfielder's first trophy since he passed away in September last year. Toone was in tears after England's shootout victory over Spain and looked towards the sky as she was hugged by Alessia Russo, Keira Walsh and Alex Greenwood. Toone later posted on Instagram that there happened to be a spare seat next to her mum during the final, adding: 'If that's not a sign I don't know what is'. The 25-year-old also uploaded a picture with Beth Mead, who lost her mother June to ovarian cancer 18 months ago, saying: 'We did it for our angels in the sky'. Toone and Mead have shared a special bond during the tournament by supporting each other through grief and posed with their Euro 2025 medals. 'My dad, I went up to see my family and my mum she said there was a spare seat next to her,' Toone later said. 'He was there and that was the sign I was looking for today. My family, my dad, everyone who has got me here today, they have been my support network from the very start.' Manchester United midfielder Toone is now a two-time European champion with England after starting the Euro 2025 final against Spain. 'The girls who have won twice, for the ones who've never won it before, I'm so happy for them,' captain Leah Williamson said. 'What an honour to be in this time. 'I believe it but I'm struggling. Everything we say, try and live by, we do, and every single person who shows up every time. We stuck to the game plan. 'So many players that have done so much, they give everything, before we even get to the football bit. 'I feel I should be saying something monumental, but I just don't have the words. I'm so proud, and I feel so lucky. Everyone turned up today, and that's what happens. It's staying home.'

Celebrate the Lionesses' win at Women's Euro 2025 with this England merch
Defending the title they secured in 2022, the Lionesses have won Euro 2025. The tournament concluded in Basel last night (Sunday 27 July) with a dramatic penalty shootout. Fresh from defeating Wales, Sweden and Italy, England came out on top against World Cup title holders Spain in a tense match that went into extra time. Dubbed the 'comeback queens' throughout the tournament, Alessia Russo equalised the game before penalties, where Chloe Kelly scored the winning goal. Managed by Sarina Wiegman, the side has once again secured their place in history as both the first senior England football team to win a major trophy on foreign soil and the first to win back-to-back titles. Defeating Germany 2-1 in the final match at Wembley Stadium in 2022, the team won England's first European Championship. Scenes of celebrations will take place across the country after another win, with an open-top bus parade scheduled as part of the homecoming event in London on Tuesday afternoon. Whether you're planning to show your support for the team in person, watch the celebrations from home or want a souvenir from the tournament, take a look at the best merch below. Inspired by vintage sportswear and various Lioness kits from tournaments past, this Nike shirt is designed with sweat-wicking technology to keep you comfortable while playing. The England 2025 home design uses a colourful red and blue ombre with blue panelling and the Nike and England logos. It's no surprise that Nineties bucket hats have returned this summer. The unisex style boasts a blue and red printed design with the England logo taking pride of place on the front. It could just as easily be worn to the Oasis Live tour – if you're one of the lucky masses that secured tickets. Another retro throwback, this windrunner nods to the original 80s design with an English twist. Made from 75% recycled fibres, it's great for evening kick-offs once the sun goes down. This Nike jacket for the Euros boasts a fun burgundy and navy all-over print, complete with a funnel neck and zip-up design. The English rose detailing pays homage to the football team, and an England and Nike logo are also featured on the front. The relaxed fit makes it perfect for year-round off-duty wear. This oversized T-shirt is a laidback way to show your support for the England team in the Women's Euro tournament 2025, whether at home or away. The black design features the signature Nike tick with 'Lioness' typography above.
