During Sunday's episode, Laura introduced a touching eulogy for Caroline.
The 40-year-old former host passed away last Saturday at her home in London, and the Islanders were told about her death off-camera ahead of the final.
The Irish star was announced as Caroline's replacement shortly after she stepped down as host.
Fans have since taken to Twitter to praise Laura's hosting efforts - despite the difficult circumstances.

"We're thinking of her family and everyone who knew her at this time.
"Caroline loved Love Island, she loved love and that's why tonight's final is dedicated to her."

YOU'RE NOT ALONE
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide.
It doesn't discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society - from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It's the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it's rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You're Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let's all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others... You're Not Alone.
If you, or anyone you know, needs help dealing with mental health problems, the following organisations provide support:
