The Dublin singer “hasn’t stopped shaking” since the song featured in the Love Island final.

RuthAnne’s song ‘The Vow’ has re-entered the Irish iTunes Chart at #1, following its appearance on the final of Love Island earlier this week.

The song was played in full on the show, which had an audience of over 650,000 people in Ireland, according to reports.

Not only that, it is also in the Top #40 on the UK iTunes Chart and has been searched on Shazam over 12,000 times.

It also now has over a million streams on Spotify.

Speaking about the news, RuthAnne said I cannot believe that I have hit #1 in the Irish iTunes chart.

“I haven’t stopped shaking since I heard the song on Love Island on Monday night. It means so much to me as an Irish female artist.

“We have so much talent in Ireland and I am just over the moon to have achieved the #1 spot and I hope now that even more of my fellow Irish girls will get the same opportunity.”

The ballad played at an emotional moment in the show, as the Islanders all came together for the Love Island Summer Ball.

Between this and Limerick man Greg O’Shea winning a tidy £25,000 for himself, Love Island really has done wonders for this country.
