It’s been two days since series seven of Love Island came to end when host Laura Whitmore declared that Millie Court and Liam Reardon had won the show and, while we’re still trying to work out what to do with our evenings now, ITV have released the official voting figures for the final.
After a whirlwind summer of love, Chloe Burrows and Toby Aromolaran finished as runners-up behind Millie and Liam, with Faye Winter and Teddy Soares finishing in third place and Kaz Kamwi and Tyler Cruickshank coming in fourth.
The results of the public vote to crown the winners reveal that Millie and Liam won by some margin, having received 42.02% of the vote.
Chloe and Toby were quite same way off in second place, with 30.85% of the vote.
Things were a bit tighter between third and fourth place, with Faye and Teddy receiving 14.85%, while Kaz and Tyler narrowly missed out on a higher position with 12.27%.
Millie and Liam had their ups and downs in the villa – namely, Liam’s head being turned by Lillie Haynes in Casa Amor – but managed to overcome their bump in the road and proved they were in it for love not money when Millie agreed to share half of the £50,000 prize money with her boyfriend.

Now that they’re out of the villa and back in the UK, Millie and Liam have revealed their plan to make their relationship work in the outside world – and it involves him moving to her native Essex.
Liam explained, “I love where I'm from but I would like to venture off and move to somewhere new and Essex seems like the perfect place really.
"I know some of the boys who were in the villa we got on so well and they mentioned moving in together and they’d like to move to Essex so that’s something I would definitely be considering and that’s my plan really, moving to Essex.”

Love Island fans spot Lillie's 'bitter' reaction to Millie and Liam win 👀
The couple, who made history as the first ever bombshell couple to win, won’t be living together straight away though as he continued, “Millie and I will move in together eventually. We’ve been living together in the villa together for the past 7/8 weeks. We don’t want to jump into living together straight away because we don’t want to add too much pressure.”
Millie added, “The one thing I want to make sure is that we still stay as strong as we are now.”
Liam won’t be leaving his homeland behind forever either as he revealed he wants to take Millie to see the sights of Wales. He said, “I'd like to take her to Pen y Fan – I love a good walk with my little dog. Get Millie some walking boots. And also take her to a few of the pubs down in town and definitely venture off to Cardiff as Cardiff's a cracking night out and Millie needs to experience it."
