As the final episode of Love Island 2015 looms, the competing couples are pulling out all the stops to secure the £50,000 prize money.

However, Jon has taken that to the next level with his partner Hannah. During a mock wedding challenge, Jonathan decided to get down on one knee – for real.

Yes, Jon has proposed to Hannah, and not as a requirement of the show.

In a clip on the Love Island website, we see Jon apparently reading a set of vows to Hannah in a series of touching couplets:

“Love is mad, love is crazy. Love makes me feel like a daisy. Love is scary, love is cool though. Loving you makes me feel like a rainbow,” the modern day Shakespeare gushes.

Needless to say, reaction on Twitter reflects a nation divided by this latest shocking development.

Some are delighted by the news:
