They beat off competition from Angelista Gunda and Simba Kudyiwa and Jasmine Muller and Kavan Murphy.
But viewers were quick to hit out on social media after the last episode of the series skipped the traditional final dates with the couples.
One fan wrote: “The final feels so rushed this year. No dates, no speeches, no real goodbye to the villa.”
Another said: “I genuinely thought the final was tomorrow bc of how we’ve had nothing, no final dates, no baby challenge, nothing.”

Someone else commented: “This is such an abomination of a final not one single date between the 3 of them.”
And a fourth added: “The final dates are literally one of my favourite episodes every year. Why would they get rid of them?”
Julia and Lorenzo and Jasmine and Kavan were the final two couples standing last night and, in usual tradition, chatted to presenter Maya Jama before the winners were announced.
But some fans insisted that Julia and Lorenzo’s win was ‘given away’ due to the fact they had ‘longer’ with Maya than the other two.
One said: “Based off that conversation Lorenzo had a longer chat & Javan a few seconds. They don’t even care to hide it.”
Another added: “Is it me or did the Maya interview just now confirm Julia and Lorenzo are the winners?”
