Season 3 of “Love Island”: Laurie and Hugo are crowned big winners

Laurie and Hugo, who make up one of the most endearing couples of Season 3 Love IslandThe big winners were crowned Thursday night during the final episode.

It was the public who chose them by voting on the L’île de l’amour app, preferring them to the pairs of Bianca & Cedric, Enya & Kevin, or even Skye & Raphaël.

Laurie and Hugo win the $50,000 grand prize.

“I am happy, but I have no words,” Laurie said in response to a question from host Olivier Dion seconds after she won the final with her lover.

Hugo, thanked the audience for believing in them. “They’re doing well because they’re not done hearing from us,” he said.

200 km…

Cosmetic technologist Laurie, 20, of San Felipe in Monterrey. Construction worker, Hugo, 26, from Shawinigan, Mauritius.

The two cities are separated by more or less 200 kilometers of highways, depending on whether you drive north or south of the St. Lawrence River. However, Laurie has already said that she wants to move into her new Tanner condo, so the lovebirds shouldn’t suffer from distance for long after they return to Quebec.

At first, Hugo only proposed for the girl who became his “princess,” and then the couple moved away, because Hugo’s heart fluctuated between Lori and Kim, among other things. Then they found each other never to leave each other again.

Loyalist During Casa Amor – the part where the island’s new residents try to seduce bachelors and couples to stay in the villa – Hugo assures Laurie she can trust him. We’ve seen their complicity and love grow by the day, and they both show themselves to be more honest and vulnerable to each other.

A heartbreaking departure for Mahyka and Gabriele

At the end of the final Torch Ceremony, introduced on Wednesday’s episode, Mahyka and Gabriele were eliminated by Bianca and Cedric, who had the exact task – and on top of that they couldn’t agree on which choice to make! — to expel the couple who, in their opinion, has the least romantic potential of the pair that received the fewest votes. Sky and Rafael heat up, but Mahika and Gabriel finally have 30 minutes to pack their bags and leave their gorgeous villa in Las Terrenas, in the Dominican Republic.

The four finalist couples have taken various trips over the course of the seven weeks, but they are all in love when the process ends, including Enya and Kevin, who have been together since the beginning. It will be necessary to see if a return to reality in Quebec will weld the four ties.

Note that the narrator Geneviève Schmidt – the first woman in this role out of all editions around the world – did a very good job, often smiling at us with her hilarious comments. Olivier Dion – the first man to take on this mandate – also did a good job, although we didn’t get to see him on screen as often as promised.
