Brighton’s Love Island contestant has been eliminated from the villa.

Olivia Hawkins and Maxwell Samuda were dumped after a public vote during last night’s episode.

The couple discovered they were at risk of leaving the ITV2 reality show after landing in the bottom four following a public vote for the most compatible couple.

The contestants had been enjoying a day out at the beach club when presenter Maya Jama entered, revealing the couples with the fewest votes were at risk from being dumped from the island.

Shaq Muhammad and Tanya Manhenga, Claudia Fogarty and Keanan Brand, and Rosie Seabrook and Casey O’Gorman were all in the bottom four, but it was Olivia and Maxwell who were sent packing.

“Obviously it is sad to leave these guys but I found what I came looking for, so I’m happy to be leaving with him,” said Olivia, 27.

During Wednesday’s dramatic dumping, Jama also revealed that Olivia and Maxwell would be deciding which other couple from the bottom four would be exiting the villa with them.

She said: “Olivia and Maxwell are not the only ones leaving. Two more islanders will also be dumped tonight. That decision is not down to the public or your fellow islanders, it’s actually down to you, Olivia and Maxwell.”

Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX.
