Maura Higgins doesn’t think the right couple won Love Island 2019

Okay, shade.

So, on Monday night, Greg O’Shea and Amber Gill were named the winners of Love Island.

And obviously, the entire country cheered for the Limerick man.

In fairness, he did us very proud (as did QUEEN Maura Higgins, in fairness!)

During the final episode, Greg read a poem that he wrote for Amber: “I’m going to keep this short and sweet, just like when we first came to meet.””Up in the Hideaway sheltered from the trouble, we instantly connected and formed our own little bubble…”

Amber in turn told Greg: “It would be fair to say that I’ve had quite a journey in the villa this summer. There have been so many highs and then some lows, but then along came Greg.”

It was all very cute, and quite the surprise too, in fairness.

However, it seems as though Maura Higgins had a little bit of an issue with the winners.

Speaking about the face she made when the winners were announced, she told OK! Online:

“You know what, I’m not going to lie — I was shocked.”

“Obviously I love Greg and Amber to bits, but I mean, it’s Love Island. Molly and Tommy have found love, it’s genuine love, and I was without a doubt shocked.”

“I thought they had it in the bag.”

Maura was asked if she thought Tommy and Molly-Mae should have won, and responded:

“Yes. It is Love Island, and they have found love.”

Well, what do you think? Is she right?
