Love Island fans 'work out real reason' Dejon dropped L-bomb as they spot 'major pattern'
It was a huge night in Love Island tonight, as Dejon told his girlfriend Meg he loved her after meeting the family, but some fans aren't convinced.
After making Meg his girlfriend in earlier episodes, tonight, Dejon took it one step further, telling her he loved her. Taking her up to the terrace, Dejon said: "My heart feels so safe with you. Speaking to my mum today, it was good reassurance to what I already knew.
"The past few days, probably even longer, I've had this feeling when I look at you. It's such a big thing, but honestly, I do love you," he said. Meg looked ecstatic as she exclaimed: "I love you too!"
Some fans grew suspicious of Dejon's declaration of love, after Meg's family told her they didn't see the pair expressing their love towards one another.
The parents later said the pair were "too serious" asking whether they have fun and crack jokes between each other. Elsewhere, Meg's family crucified Dejon's "flirty behaviour," and told her she let him get off too lightly.
Now, some fans the comments from last nights episode prompted him to drop the all important L-Bomb.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter one fan was convinced they'd spotted a pattern in Dejon's behaviour. "Something negative happens. Dejon: Lets go exclusive Something negative happens," the wrote.
"Dejon: Will you be my girlfriend Something negative happens. Dejon: I love you," as another agreed: "Because dejon was told again there's no visual spark he has to pull out the I love you bag!"
Another agreed: "dejon def abt to come in with the 'i love you' to try and seal him and meg as winners after the shambolic meet the parents LOOOOL nice try," with another writing: "Meg and Dejon's families said they need to see more intimacy and cute s**t and Dejon throws out the L bomb on the same night lmfaoooo."
However, despite this - Dejon had previously mentioned to Harry that he was falling in love with Megan, but couldn't yet find the words to say it. Others were all for the declaration of love, as one wrote: "Meg and Dejon are the most genuine couple to ever go on love island."
Elsewhere, The Islanders were back to their old ways during tonight's challenge, as tensions continued to rise during the Couple Goals challenge - putting a dampener on Meg and Dejon's news.
Despite being over the moon when Yas read the text: "Islanders. It's time to reveal what you really think of each other in today's challenge, couple goals! #SmilingButJudging #StandOnBusiness," things quickly went downhill.
The challenge, which was hosted by Meg and Dejon saw the pair read out questions which the Islanders will all answer in their couples as they select which couple they believe it applies to most.
Tensions continued to rise when the dreaded question 'Which couple is most fake?', was read out. Once again, things turned awkward, as Harry and Shakira chose Blu and Helena. When giving their reasons, Helena interjected, 'That's a cop out mate.'
They weren't the only ones with the fighting talk, as Meg and Dejon also chose Shakira and Harry, despite Harry being Dejon's best friend in the villa. 'I feel like Shakira, you've made some very hurtful comments to me that we're not very nice and I've always been there for you," Meg said.
Will the Islanders kiss and make up?

Love Island couple ordered to leave the villa just hours before ITV final
One Love Island couple are being voted out of the villa by their former islanders. As we gear up for the semi-final of one of the most explosive Love Island seasons yet, two more islanders are set to be ruthlessly dumped from the villa, as they are voted out by their former friends and rivals, who aren't holding back. One couple won't make it to the final of the show, as the latest teaser reveals a tense moment where all the previously dumped Islanders return to the villa for one last, game changing decision. The official Love Island account took to Instagram to share the short clip from Sunday evening's episode, alongside the caption: "First look! Ex-Islanders return for a savage dumping, and they're not holding back." Host Maya Jama appears to have returned to the villa one last time before she gets ready for the final, and is seen entering the villa to announce the latest twist. After a dramatic slow-motion walk into the villa, Maya shouts: "Hello, hello, hello. Are you alright my loves? How was the dates? Are you all loved up? Well I have some very important news. Can you come and join me on the lawn?" The remaining couples in the villa are Yas and Jamie, Cach and Toni, Harry and Shakira, Ty and Angel, and Meg and Dejon, the Mirror reports. Maya delivers the news: "Well today, one more couple will be dumped from the Love Island villa and that decision will be made by some very familiar faces." Among the returning islanders is Sophie Lee, who joined at the start of the series and became the first to be dumped on day two. Viewers will also see the return of Tommy who was once considered a frontrunner to win, before being dumped by Shakira. The teaser sent fans into a frenzy as they speculated which couple the dumped islanders would be giving the boot. One viewer wrote: "Sorry, but after Thursday and Friday, it's gotta be Meg and Dejon. Their time is up", while another simply stated: "Harry & Shakira.. your time is up!" A third shared their thoughts and penned: "For all the years of watching Love Island, it's my first time feeling this nervous about the finals. I swear my anxiety level is through the roof." A forth fan stated: "Do the right thing and only let Yas, Jamie, or Cach near that money for goodness sake," while another expressed: "I swear if Shakira, Toni, or Yaz go home, I might have to have some therapy sessions" Only time will tell who the dumped Islanders will vote for and which couple will say their goodbyes just a day before the final. Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX, and the final will air tomorrow (August 4) at 9pm.

Maura Higgins displays her toned physique in a summer minidress as she gives followers a glimpse of her lavish lifestyle
displays her toned physique in a summer minidress as she shared a glimpse of her lavish lifestyle in an Instagram post on Sunday. The former Love Island star, 34, stunned as she enjoyed a picnic in the sun while wearing an ivory and pink milkmaids dress. In a second image she looked happier than ever after pulling on a pair of thigh-skimming shorts and fedora hat for a bike ride. In another snap, Maura enjoyed a mint ice cream which posed with while wearing a ruffled dress in a similar colour. She also shared a glimpse of herself in more casual attire, including a bright pink T-shirt dress branded with the Love Island logo. The brunette later posed for a fun snap with her pals as they made funny faces for a photo collage. Alongside the snaps, she wrote: 'Previously on……' The post comes after Maura moved into her £1.25million five-bedroom 'dream house' in Essex. The TV personality, who has amassed an estimated £3.2million fortune from her TV appearances, took to Instagram earlier this month to share the news that she had finally moved in. Sharing the news she posted a picture of stunning black French doors looking on to a garden, with a huge bouquet of glowers in a vase, Ferrari sparkling wine and a Diptyque candle. 'After the busiest few months.... she's finally in,' the former Love Island star captioned the snap. Sharing another snap of the kitchen featuring her pal, celebrity hairdresser Carl Bembridge, she wrote: 'No chairs yet but he always finds something to sit on.' As a young woman in rural Ireland, Maura's future was set - stay in the town, marry her teenage boyfriend and open up a hair salon. 'But that's not what I wanted. That was not my dream. That was my father's and boyfriend's dream. I wanted to do more,' Maura previously defiantly declared. Maura also shared a glimpse of her in more casual wear as she wore a bright pink T-shirt dress which was branded with the Love Island logo The brunette beauty also posed for a fun snap with her pals as they made funny faces for a photo collage And leave Ireland she did, going on to star in two ITV reality shows, Love Island and most recently I'm A Celebrity, as well as taking on presenting duties. In her next big move, the girl from remote County Longford purchased her huge house in Essex. Her riches have allowed the presenter to upgrade from her previous one-bedroom property in Essex to one with an en-suite master bedroom with four further rooms. Overjoyed, Maura shared to her Instagram followers a picture of her new kitchen with a chandelier and grey floors, which she bought in October, with the caption 'Bought my dream house'. An expansive kitchen, with an island, leads out past the dining area, out bi-folding doors to a large walled garden with a neat lawn. Maura's previous home was raided by three-masked men and so the Love Island star has ensured her new home was in a gated development which provides privacy and security.

Tommy also shared a photo from the flight that showed Bambi on Molly-Mae's lap. He wrote: "Quality time incoming." Then over a photo of him and Bambi at an airport, he said: "Excited to be somewhere I haven't visited before." He's since shared updates from their hotel resort, including teasing that he was "staying on plan" when it came to meals. Tommy also uploaded a photo of himself in a gym, with the boxer seen smiling whilst posing for a selfie in a mirror. Following their arrival at the destination, Molly-Mae shared a photo of Tommy and Bambi cuddled up in bed together.

Molly-Mae also shared a photo of herself and Bambi at Aqualantis, with them seen on a slide together. Tommy later uploaded footage of the pair on a different slide, with them seen splashing into the water together in his video. The updates from the family's holiday comes after Molly-Mae was seen in tears in a recent vlog following a backlash. She addressed the suggestion that she's "out of touch" after complaining about struggling with parenting lately, including saying she was found a recent motorhome holiday challenging. She told fans in the video: "I feel like I need to keep my camera running all day so you guys like actually just see ... it's like every single thing is a huge problem. Like [Bambi is] screams and can't even get like socks and shoes on." Addressing potential critics of her vlogs, Molly-Mae added: "I don't care who tells me I'm out of touch with reality or like all this stuff that's going on on TikTok at the minute." She said: "I don't care like I'm not gonna not talk about it." The update came after she was met with criticism after complaining that she hadn't done anything "fun" over the summer. She said in a vlog uploaded last month: "I said to someone the other day, right, that I am gonna make it to the end of summer [having] not done one fun thing." She added: "I haven't socialised once. [...] I haven't done one social, fun thing. I haven't a life. I haven't a life. Oh, it's not good is it? Like I am literally ... summer will end and I won't have done one fun social thing." She gave an example as going out with a friend and their children for the day. Some people however pointed out that in recent weeks Molly had been to Wimbledon and on the motorhome holiday to the Isle of Man, for example.
