LOVE ISLAND TONIGHT: FULL RUNDOWN FOR TONIGHT'S EPISODE, SUNDAY 26 JULY 2026

Love Island continues tonight on ITV2 and ITVX, here's a full rundown of tonight's episode...

THE EX-ISLANDERS MAKE THEIR RETURN - AND HAVE THEIR SAY AS ONE COUPLE IS DUMPED

The remaining Islanders wake to a text that leaves the Villa stunned. Julia reads, “Islanders. It’s time to be reunited with some familiar faces. Please get ready and head to the Fire Pit. “

The dumped ex-Islanders make a dramatic entrance, gathering at the Fire Pit followed by the remaining couples who stand before them. 

Samraj then receives a text which reads, “Islanders. The fate of your Love Island journey is now in the hands of the ex-Islanders.” 

Followed by Yasmin who reads, “They have individually decided which couple doesn’t deserve to be in the Love Island Final.”

Simba then reads, “The couple with the most votes will be dumped from the Island immediately.”

One by one, the ex-Islanders stand to cast their vote, each choosing one couple they want to dump. But the vote soon becomes more than a decision, as old tensions resurface and unanswered questions are finally put on the table.

When it’s Lola’s turn, she says “I think everyone is prioritising their couple. And maybe the couple I am picking doesn’t always feel like they’re prioritising working on their own relationship, and sometimes get involved in other people’s relationships a little bit much and make me question the motives a little bit.” 

As the vote reaches Sam, he says “I’ll be honest - I think your intentions coming into this experience don’t align with how I think they should be. Morally, I don’t think you should end it with a girl to come on here.”

When Tina has her say, she says “Simba. I was so disappointed with you in Casa, so disappointed. It was the same with you Samraj and you Kav - I was a bit stunned.” 

Up next is Charleen who was left less than impressed with Mica and says, “The comments, Mica that you made, about me after the recoupling….” 

Soon, Elicia is ready to deliver her verdict and starts by saying “There was a comment that was made publicly that was job-shaming myself.”

Although Priya isn't there to address the drama herself, Elicia is left unimpressed by one Islander's reaction to her comments and wastes no time in seeking answers. 

Can the Islanders put their differences aside and move forward as their Love Island experience draws to a close?

And which couple has received the most votes from the ex-Islanders and will be dumped, narrowingly missing out on tomorrow’s Live Final?

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
