'NOT REAL'
Love Island fans claim show is ‘fixed’ after spotting love letters are TYPED out not handwritten
Viewers spotted this year’s stars had their speeches typed out for them, rather than writing them by hand
LOVE Island fans were calling the show “staged” again during tonight’s final after spotting something suspect.
They saw the love letters they read out to one another were typed out – despite the group not having access to computers.

Viewers went onto Twitter to complain after they believed the stars were writing the letters by hand.
At the start of the episode, Jack, Josh, Paul and Wes could be seen writing out their letters on pads of paper.
However when they went to read them out, the letters had been typed out for the stars.
One fan moaned: “Hang on a minute, I swear earlier we saw the finalists writing out they’re speeches on paper with pen yet when the camera films Dani’s speech on the paper it’s typed scripted?”

Another said: “HANG ON A MINUTE... Why are their speeches typed up? Can they not read their own handwriting? Did it need approval from the production team?”
While a third said: “So they were writing in books but somehow their words are typed...hmmmm who wrote these speeches for them???”
A fourth moaned: “They wrote their letter notes but dani is reading a note that’s been typed.”
One angry viewer asked: “Who typed up these speeches?”
