Although the third series of Love Island: All Stars got off to a slightly delayed start due to the wildfires in South Africa, it’s safe to say it has been one of the most entertaining seasons yet.
Over the last six weeks, the show has seen 26 former Islanders enter the villa, with six recouplings, 12 steals, 14 dumpings, and a whole load of drama between the iconic cast members.
When was the final?
The Love Island: All Stars series three final aired between 9pm-10.35pm on Monday 23rd February 2026 on ITV2/STV2 and ITVX and STV Player.
Who won Love Island: All Stars?
Following a public vote, Ciaran Davies and Samie Elishi were crowned the new winners of Love Island: All Stars.
Check out the final placings below:
WINNERS: Ciaran Davies and Samie Elishi
Another former winner to enter the show on Day One was Welsh hunk Ciaran Davies! Still only 23-years-old, Ciaran confessed he was keen to find love again following his split from ex-girlfriend Nicole Samuel in December 2024. On Day One, the public chose to pair Ciaran with Millie Court, something he seemed pleased about at the time.
However, Millie wasn't keen, leaving Ciaran single when she chose to recouple with Charlie during the second recoupling. It wasn't all bad news though, as bombshells AJ Bunker and Samie Elishi were waiting for him in the Secret Garden. After having a spark with Samie, the pair were getting on very well until the arrival of bombshell Lucinda Stafford, who chose to 'steal' Ciaran away from Samie.
Despite this, Ciaran and Samie were reunited during the fifth recoupling, with their romance growing stronger by the day, even making their romance exclusive. During their final chat with Maya, Samie confirmed she can't wait for a trip to Wales!
2ND PLACE: Zac Woodworth and Millie Court
Just months after her split from Liam Reardon, series 7 winner Millie Court was a welcomed edition to the Love Island: All stars cast! After entering on Day One, the public chose to couple her up with Welsh boy Ciaran Davies, but Millie was instantly put off by the six-year age gap. With a big attraction to Charlie Frederick, Millie chose to recouple with him, but in a huge shock just days later, she brutally dumped him from the villa - after he also wanted to get to know Jess Harding.
With Millie now single, dancer Curtis Pritchard arrived and was keen to sweep Mills off her feet, something she seemingly entertained for a number of days, until she confessed he made her 'cringe' a little, before cooling things off.
It wasn't until Millie headed over to the USA villa for a few days, where she met American bombshell Zac Woodworth, with the pair having an instant sexual spark. When the Islanders from the two villas reunited, Zac chose to recouple with Millie, and the pair have been smitten ever since - as well as not being able to keep their hands off each other.
After Zac told him mum to book a flight to the UK to meet Millie, the pair sailed into the final, with fans having very high hopes for them in the outside world. During their final chat with Maya, Zac confirmed he's heading to London for a month after the show, before Millie visits America!
3RD PLACE: Leanne Amaning and Scott van-der-Sluis
Series 6 Islander Leanne Amaning was one of the original Islanders during series three, with Love Island lothario Scott van-der-Sluis arriving just one day later as the first bombshell - making history in the process with his fourth stint on the franchise. Although the public voted Leanne to couple up with Shaq Muhammad on Day One, bombshell Scott had other ideas, and quickly expressed his interest in Leanne.
When the second recoupling arrived, Scott was given the opportunity to 'steal' the girl of his choice, picking Leanne and going on to stay in a couple with her during the third and fourth recoupling. However, it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows for these two, as the pair were split up when American bombshell Sher Suarez arrived, choosing to 'steal' Scott away from Leanne. However, after calling things off with Sher, Scott jumped out of one triangle straight into another, this time with Belle Hassan.
After Leanne told Scott she wasn't completely sure on their romance, this led Belle to step up her pursue of him, with flirty conversations had between the pair in the secret garden - which led to some FIERY arguments between the cast. Then, during the iconic Heart Rate challenge, Leanne seemingly changed her mind on Scott when he whispered: "We're not done until I say we're done" in her ear.
Cooling things off with Belle, much to her displeasure, Scott took Leanne for a chat in the Secret Garden, telling her: "Logically you make sense, emotionally you make sense, you're the only thing that makes sense to me. I want to come home." Clearing the air and making up with a kiss, the pair recoupled during the sixth and final recoupling, and despite some former Islanders questioning Scott's true feelings, the pair stuck together and made it all the way to the final.
During their interview with Maya in the final, Scott and Leanne admitted they are excited to meet each other's families, as well as making their romance official!
4TH PLACE: Lucinda Stafford and Sean Stone
Series 11 Islander Sean Stone (AKA - The Candyman), entered the All Stars villa on Day One, where he was paired with Belle Hassan following a public vote, and although the pair got on initially, it was clear there was no sexual spark between the two. Despite a brief coupling with Helena Ford, it was bombshell Lucinda Stafford who really got him giddy!
As the Islanders split across the two villas to meet the USA bombshells, Lucinda and Sean enjoyed flirty chats and enjoyed getting to know each other - much to the shock of their fellow Islanders. Despite seemingly being well-matched, the pair were continuously being accused of 'faking' their romance, leading to some HUGE arguments between Lucinda and some of the other girls.
Sean and Lucinda didn't let the drama stop them, with the couple actually being the first to become official boyfriend and girlfriend during the final week!
5TH PLACE: Whitney Adebayo and Yamen Sanders
Series 10 Islander Whitney Adebayo returned to the villa as an OG Islander on Day One of series three, with the public pairing her up with Ronan Keating's son Jack! Whitney and Jack were keen to get to know each other, but bombshell Konnor Ewudzi put an end to that when he arrived and chose to 'steal' Whitney.
Whitney attempted to find a connection with Konnor, but she admitted she was struggling, and it was then during her switch to villa USA where she finally found a spark - in the form of American bombshell Yamen Sanders. As they returned to the main villa, Yamen chose to couple up with Whitney, and the couple have been solid ever since.
The pair have discussed plans on how they attempt to make their romance work outside of the villa, and don't see the distance between UK and USA being an issue. IT'S GIVING... commitment!

What happened in the final?
With the villa’s garden transformed into a dazzling TV set for the live final, host Maya Jama opened the show by introducing this year’s finalists. The couples, freshly prepped from their salon visits and styled to perfection, stepped out looking every bit ready for the spotlight.
Following a quick group interview with Maya, it was time to see what the Islanders got up to in their final 24 hours in the villa. American boy Zac received an early morning text which read: 'Finalists, it’s time for a pool party BBQ. Boys, please get ready to leave the Villa to go shopping for supplies.'.
As the boys headed out of the villa to buy supplies for the BBQ, Yamen declared: “In LA it’s 24/7 barbecue, sun shining, chicken grilling. If you are trying to impress a bunch of women that you love…”
Later in the episode, the Islanders got the party started with games in the garden, before the five remaining couples shared more heartfelt conversations, with many of them reflecting on their journeys.
Lucinda told Sean: “I am so confident that we’re gonna work on the outside…”, with Sean replying: “To think that I’ve fallen in love… I would do my whole journey over again tomorrow, I have zero regrets.”
Speaking with Zac, Millie admitted: “When I met you, you had it all. I think that’s probably why I gun for you so hard.” Zac replied: “It’s very mutual, it always feels like home whenever you’re with me, which is weird because you’re from across the world.”
Scott and Leanne also had a catch up, as she told him: “Here we are at the final…I’m glad that I met you.”
Scott replied: “It’s been a while since I liked someone this much.”
Welsh boy Ciaran told Samie: “I wouldn’t change it at all” with Samie adding: “The whole point of us being here is to find someone and I feel like I've found that.”
Yamen then told Whitney: “You’ve made this experience for me…there’s a bond that can last across the pond!” Noticing the rhyme, Whitney replies: “That was kinda bar-y!” She then concurs of their pairing: “My experience has been amazing.”
Before announcing the results, Maya chatted live with this year’s dumped Islanders - and by the looks of it, the drama has continued outside the villa!
American girl Kyra called out Curtis for THAT Valentine’s Day post, while the beef between Jessy and Helena continued following Helena’s comments about Jessy during her exit interview.
Maya also delved deeper into Harrison’s ‘relationship’ with ex-girlfriend Lauren, showing him a clip from her recent podcast appearance, in which she claimed they were in a good place. Harrison was quick to shut down Lauren’s claims, clarifying that the romance ended in October, and went on to admit he wants to chat with her privately about the matter.
It wasn’t all bad news, though. Helena and Carrington confirmed that things have been going well since leaving the villa, with Carrington planning a trip to the UK next month. Imani and Konnor also revealed they’ve been FaceTiming every day since they left, while Shaq expressed his interest in Belle - much to the disbelief of Harrison… and Belle herself.
What did they win?
As well as all of the fame, magazine deals, and podcast appearances that goes with, the winning couple received a share of £50,000.
As the Islanders know, playing the game well can open the door to serious success - just look at Molly-Mae Hague, Maura Higgins and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, who turned their time in the villa into multi-million-pound careers.
Will there be another series?
ITV/STV bosses haven't yet confirmed if All Stars will return for a fourth series in early 2027, but we do know the main show will be back on our screens this Summer - as the crew head back to Mallorca.
