Love Island's Kai and Sanam and Ron and Lana get 'revenge' in final as old clips surface

Delighted Love Island fans have branded the result of Monday's final the perfect 'revenge' for winners Kai and Sanam and runners up Ron and Lana, after they were 'snubbed' by their fellow Islanders for weeks.

After two months of dumpings, squabbles, recouplings and romance, the latest series of the ITV dating show came to an end as Kai and Sanam, Ron and Lana and fellow couples Shaq and Tanya and Tom and Samie competed for the £50,000 prize. While the atmosphere in the villa in the last few days looked rather cheery, the reality is that things have been rather fraught to say the least over the last month.

It became apparent that Ron and Kai were very much 'shunned' by the other lads in the Love Island villa, including Will, before his exit alongside Jessie on Sunday, with Lana and Sanam also on the receiving end of harsh comments from other girls on the show this year.

However, while their fellow Islanders weren't their biggest fans, viewers loved Kai and Sanam and Ron and Lana and, in the end, it was those four who had the last laugh, as they were the last two couples left standing, before Maya Jama announced that Kai and Sanam had topped the final public vote of the series.

Ron and Lana seemed genuinely ecstatic for Kai and Sanam, quickly running up to them to give them a hug and celebrate with them. And the result went down well with many fans on Twitter, due to the way the winners and runners up had been treated by other Islanders.

One tweeted: "Ron & Lana and Kai & Sanam made it higher than the losers who wanted to do nasty cliques in the villa. Revenge is so so sweet!!" with a second reacting: "it’s just satisfying to know Kai + Sanam came 1st and Lana + Ron came 2nd...revenge is sweet."

Others posted videos from the last month of Love Island to prove their point that the final two couples were 'shunned' by others; including one where Kai and Ron were left standing in the kitchen as the other boys talked behind their backs and another where Tanya complained: "Once again it's kai and sanam and ron and lana."
