With less than week to go until this year’s finale, bookmakers have revealed the couple are the frontrunners leading the way at 1/2.
Elsewhere, Tyrique and Ella are beginning to close the gap and now find themselves at 2/1, with every other couple being priced at 5/1 or bigger as things stand.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: ‘Lochan and Whitney have headed the betting for weeks now.
‘While they may have had their fair share of ups and downs earlier on in the series, it looks as though Tyrique and Ella are peaking at the perfect time… and we now have a two-horse race on our hands for this year’s crown.’
Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX on Wednesday at 9pm.
