Love Island first look: Jake and Liberty come clean on final date ahead of ‘quitting’

'The spark just faded'

Love Island has released its first look preview for tonight’s episode (August 20), but is it Jake Cornish and Liberty Poole’s final appearance?

The Islanders, who have reportedly quit the ITV2 series, went their separate ways during last night’s show.

But it appears the pair are still keen to make the most of their time in the villa.

After some deliberation, the pair go out on their date and take to the seas on a luxurious boat.

During the date, Jake says: “I didn’t think I’d be coming on a date with the one I thought was the one.”

Liberty adds: “I don’t know what happened along the way but the spark just faded.”

Jake replies: “On my behalf I felt the affection died out. That’s a big thing for me and that’s nothing against you as a person.”

Liberty says: “I’m not going to lie – I did fall in love with you.

“At one point, I thought I had found the one but once the honeymoon passes you start seeing the cracks.”

Following the date, Liberty and Jake head back to the villa where they ask the Islanders to gather around the firepit.
