Since day one, OG islander Ellie Chadwick has had a rocky Love Island journey, and after threatening to leave several times, many are worried she's actually left.

Ellie initially formed a connection with Aidan Murphy, but it quickly turned into a love triangle with Yasmin Hadlow. Despite having a spark with bombshell Tommy Murphy, the romance didn't progress much further when he kissed bombshell Halle Brown.

When Finley Maddock arrived, fans believed Ellie had finally found her Prince Charming and they quickly became a fan-favourite couple. However, his on-and-off interest in latest bombshell, Elicia Bailey, has tested his connection with Ellie.

With emotions reaching an all-time high, after Elicia and Finley shared a kiss, many are wondering whether Ellie has actually left the villa.

Has Ellie left Love Island?

Yes Ellie has quit the villa and walked out with less than two weeks until the final. On Wednesday (July 15), a source told The Sun said: “This is one where the time difference between show action and real life really matters.

“Viewers have seen Ellie threatening to leave across recent episodes, so the news of her now quitting won’t feel like a surprise."

They continued: “But in real time, her and Fin reconnected at the recoupling a few days ago so her decision to now leave is a shock. Viewers will see the dramatic action play out in an episode soon.”

In a previous episode, Ellie got emotional talking to Priya Jaswal about her three way love triangle with Finley and Elicia. She tearfully admitted: "I found what I came here for, and if that means I'll leave, then I'll leave. Do you know what I mean?

"I don't know what else I can do, I'm just f-----g tired."

In response, Priya told her she "hated" seeing her like this and she didn't deserve it.

Ellie has threatened to leave multiple times but in the most recent episode she said she was giving Finley another night to make things work...

We'll update the page if it's revealed that Ellie has walked out of the villa.
