It’s time to wrap up the drama of Casa Amor with the ‘Love Island UK Season 13’ finale expected to release on July 27, 2026. With the surreal weeks, many fans saw high-profile bombshells on the show. Whether it was the love triangles or the Islanders’ behaviour, many viewers did not hesitate to speak their minds. As the last episode nears, here’s a look back at the controversial moments from the ‘Love Island UK Season 13’ diary.
Gabriel Garland – Removed
Gabriel Garland, the Bombshell of ‘Love Island UK Season 13,’ was removed from the renowned villa after being named in the court documents. The 24-year-old model was involved in a serious incident on New Year’s Eve 2019, where his acquaintance had an altercation with two victims before they were stabbed. Victor Mazzer was found guilty of two counts of causing grievous bodily harm with intent following a party in Casewick Road, London, according to The Sun.“There was an incident that happened at a party I was at when I was a teenager. This incident is obviously one that should not be taken lightly, and was very traumatic for everyone concerned,” the model said in his July 3, 2026, video on Instagram, per Deadline, before adding, “I just wanted to make it clear that the legal judge has found no wrongdoing against me, and I don’t have a criminal record. This has obviously resulted in me leaving Love Island, which is very disappointing, especially from a personal perspective.”
George Knight – Exits
George Knight, the professional footballer from Winchester, left the Casa Amor six days after the premiere. Citing the reason as ‘private family reasons,’ the athlete mentioned that he would be prioritising his close ones. “Villa was a decision made to be with my family. Out of respect for them, I’d prefer not to go into any further detail,” he wrote on his Instagram. According to The Sun, another reason for his exit was the usage of ‘unacceptable language’ in the villa. After the warning from the makers, he was sent home.
Finley Maddock – Love triangle
Finley Maddock, the Welsh builder, had a high-profile love triangle with his original partner, Ellie Chadwick, and the bombshell newcomer, Elicia Bailey. Despite an affirming gesture between Finley and Ellie, his head turned for Elicia – with all the fireworks and sparks in mind. After exploring the chemistry, Maddock backtracked, but the damage was done. The major twist? Ellie walked out of the villa, per Radio Times. “I’ve been through every emotion possible, made memories that will stay with me forever, and I truly wouldn’t change a single second of it,” she wrote in the Instagram caption.
Hosted by Maya Jama, ‘Love Island UK Season 13’ will conclude the drama of eight weeks by crowning the winning couple.
