Love Island Fans Say Voters 'Need To Be Locked Up' After Coupling Results

Love Island fans were given unprecedented control for the brand new series but some viewers are seriously upset with the results.

For the first time ever, fanatics were given the opportunity to vote for the islanders they wanted to see coupled up in the first episode.

Indiyah and Ikenna were paired together but if Twitter is anything to go by, fans want a do-over.

Reacting to Love Island 2022's first couple, one fan said: "U lot who voted for Indiya and Ikenna to be a couple need to be locked up tbh".

Another viewer shared: "You lot did Indiyah dirty".

While Love Island winner Amber Gill tweeted: "Indiyah: 'yeah. It was a set up'".

Someone else quipped: "How many episodes till ikenna gives indiyah the ick?".

Ikenna Okwana is a 23-year-old pharmaceutical sales worker who has only been in one relationship up to now.

He took his ex on holiday for her birthday to Barcelona which he describes as his most memorable dating experience. What will Ikenna bring to the villa you ask? “Hopefully, I’m going to bring spontaneity and excitement.

"I’m not really shy to speak to people and I don’t really care too much about what people think.”

Meanwhile, his new match is hotel waitress Indiyah Polack, 23, who feels she's now at a stage in her life where she's 'ready to meet new people and start dating properly.'

Although dating has been quite tough because of social media, she believes Love Island will be a great opportunity to meet her match because it's 'like a closed space'.

She said: "I think it is a great place to get to know someone one-on-one and build a real connection."

It turns out Indiyah doesn't have a specific type and all the guys she has dated so far have been completely different.

"Random," she said regarding her dating history so far. "Everyone I’ve dated have all been quite different. I don’t think I have ever been out with two guys who are quite the same."

We can't wait to see what happens with these two!

Love Island airs at 9pm on ITV 2.
