Love Island: All Stars - Season 2

Maya Jama is back and bringing together a line-up of unforgettable ex-Islanders who are returning to paradise for another shot at finding love.

The show is in full swing and the Islanders are diving headfirst into the whirlwind of dating and drama, but there may already be trouble in paradise for the couples.

The series continues and the Villa is buzzing with surprises - as the Islanders settle into paradise, one thing they know for certain is that the Villa is full of twists and turns.

After last night's shock secret garden kiss, Elma and Ekin-Su are reeling with the possibilities of what Kaz and Ronnie are up to, with Ekin-Su reminding her: "You need to fight for what you want". 

Elsewhere during the ‘secret garden night', completely oblivious to the drama unfolding below them, Gabby and Casey are on the terrace chatting. 

It's eBay pre-loved party time, and the Islanders get dressed to the nines in their blazers, with Elma keen to try to forget the drama but it's playing on Kaz's mind who says: "I wanna chat to Elma and apologise again."

After last night's recoupling - Ronnie made his choice and he's all in on Elma.

Nas checks in with Catherine. 

Gabby leaves Kaz with much to ponder as she wonders if Luca is worth a proper shot…

 Nas gets a text which reveals a new bombshell is waiting to take three boys on a date. 

When anyone fails during a game of ‘suck and blow', having to follow the cards' rules of either doing a dare or telling a truth, the Islanders' evening is full of action. 

When India is given a truth she's asked: "Who do you think the most calculated in here is?"

"After this evening I'm gonna actually go you," she says to Scott who is shocked.

Luca pulls Kaz for a chat on the bean bags and admits he's been closed off saying: "I have held off, but since we've been coupled up we've had some nicer chats and I feel at ease with you."

Ekin-Su knows a thing or two about being a bombshell and asks Tina how she's feeling about the boys in the Villa. 

Maya Jama shocks the Islanders as she gatecrashes their evening. 

In the aftermath of India's dumping, Scott and Tina are coming to terms with what her decision has meant.

Not long after India's departure, Kaz checks in with Luca as Tina has chosen Scott. 

It's time for Ron and Grace to enter the Villa to some very surprised islanders.

That evening, Ron pulls Elma for a chat. 

The Islanders are tasked with taking it in turns to open a gift with a sash inside, they then decide who fits the sash best and present it to an Islander of their choice. 

Interested in talking to Nas again, Grace pulls him to the bean bags for a chat. 

Elma tells Ronnie about her chat with Ron yesterday. 

Curtis and Ekin-Su have been going from strength to strength and when Ekin-Su gets a text, things get even better.

Plus - at the end of tonight's episode viewers will find out that it's the first public vote of the series. Viewers will be given the chance to vote for who they think is the most compatible couple, with the results leaving one couple vulnerable…   

Elma tells Ronnie she's feeling a little shut out. 

Catherine talks to Nas about how she's been feeling. 

Catching up by the pool in the evening Ekin-Su asks Curtis: "I just want to know if you thought it's going too slow or fast…"

Scott lets Marcel know that there was some flirting going on with Luca and Olivia so Marcel pulls Luca for a chat. 

Over by the pool Olivia, Grace and Catherine are chatting about life outside of the Villa. 

That evening, the Islanders get a text asking them to gather around the firepit. The public have been voting for the most compatible couple and the bottom three have been decided… which couples will be at risk and what does the vote mean for their time in the Villa? 

Catherine fills Luca in on how she's feeling after being in the bottom three with Nas. 

Ron speaks to Kaz on the terrace. 

Bombshell Montel arrives at the Villa, surprising the Islanders in the afternoon. 

After lots of teeth brushing and mouthwash, the Islanders are ready for the kissing challenge - the boys are lined up blindfolded and with noise cancelling headphones as the girls take it in turns to kiss each boy, they'll then be ranked out of 10 for their kisses and whoever gets the most points at the end wins. 

After Ronnie tells Harriett how he feels, Harriett reports back to Grace and the girls.

The next day bombshell Montel and Catherine catch up. 

Ekin-Su is ready to talk to Curtis and he starts by explaining how he's feeling. 

Later that afternoon, Elma gets a text which reads: "Can all Islanders gather around the firepit immediately."

Montel then gets a further text, which says: "Montel and Harriett, please stand in front of the firepit."

The pair then learn they have to stand in front of the firepit and that they must each steal a girl and boy of their choice to couple up with. 

Wanting to clear the air about Ronnie, Harriett chats to Elma. 

In the wake of Montel stealing Kaz, Catherine has some thoughts for Montel.

In the morning, Scott tells Luca, Ronnie and Casey how he's feeling about Tina. 

It's Viva Las Vegas in the Villa as Grace gets a text, which reads…

"Islanders, get ready to roll the dice because it's Vegas night! Girls you can get poker face ready with your very own glam squad #WhatHappensInVegas #BootsBeautySpecials."

Once the Islanders are glammed up and ready for their casino night, they begin a game of Truth or Dare roulette. 

The aftermath of the roulette game has Tina reeling as Kaz and Elma try to get to the bottom of what happened.

Kaz and Montel catch up after the drama.

Ronnie takes Harriet to the secret garden.

Kaz gets a text with a first for this year's All Stars…

It reads: "Islanders, tonight the Hideaway Retreat is open. Please choose a lucky couple to spend the night together #DND #AloneAtLast"

They collectively decide on Gabby and Casey. 

The texts keep coming and Curtis gets a surprise one first thing in the morning…

"Islanders, it's time to put on your best fit and get ready to leave the Villa, as you're off to an exclusive All Stars party. #VibeClub #WKD0%"

The Islanders get dressed up and head to the Vibe Club, where there's a DJ. 

As the Islanders are adjusting to a quieter Villa with yesterday's dumping fresh in their minds, Tina is feeling thankful for being saved, telling Scott: "I'd have hated if it ended like that." 

Scott says: "I do like and I do want you. I haven't been off with you… don't listen to anyone else." 

But as the other boys chat they are worried Scott will overthink things and feel "pressure". 

Can the pair make the most of this new chance?

Later that evening, Curtis gets a very surprising text and announces to the group that for the first time ever, two Islanders have been chosen to go to the Hideaway Retreat for a sleepover with two new bombshells.

The Islanders have no idea which two bombshells are waiting in the Hideaway Retreat and why they've chosen each Islander. 

As their decisions are revealed it causes shockwaves through the Villa - some Islanders are very excited, while others predict drama ahead. 

A lot can happen in one night at the Hideaway Retreat and they won't be able to hide away from the truth when they return to face the rest of the Villa the next morning…

Luca and Ekin-Su have a heart to heart.

Danielle and Ron have a chat on the bean bags. 

That afternoon, Gabby gets a text…

"Islanders, get ready for an incredible night because the Villa will host a VIP performance from an American superstar! #TalkDirtyToMe #WantToWantMe

The Islanders enjoy Jason's special performance and dance the night away by the pool, with Catherine even sharing a special moment with the hitmaker, who kisses her hand after she helps him with his jacket.

The fun of the evening is short lived when Grace gets a text asking for the Islanders to gather around the firepit. The Islanders quickly learn that it's decision time for Danielle and Sammy.

In the wake of Danielle's steal, Ekin-Su talks to Ronnie admitting: "I feel like I've been played…"

Meanwhile, Sammy and Elma aka ‘Selma' head up to the terrace to discuss becoming a couple at the ‘steal'. 

The next morning Catherine gets a text…

"Catherine and Grace, you have been picked to go on a date. Please get ready to leave the Villa. #BabesWhoBrunch #GetYourFlirtOn"

New bombshell Omar Nyame is waiting for the girls at a picturesque spot for brunch.

Scott and Gabby chat on the beanbags about Tina. 

Later that evening, Casey gets a text to say that there will be a re-coupling, leaving some boys with easy decisions to make and others with much more to think about.

Gabby then gets a text for the Islanders to gather round the Firepit. 

Omar, as the newest Islander in the Villa gets the first choice and after both dates with Grace and Catherine, will he steal or start something new? 

The rest of the boys then take their turns to give their speeches and the evening continues with mixed emotions for some and a fresh start for others. How will the Islanders react to the re-couplings?

On Friday night Curtis was left with a big decision to make at the latest re-coupling. 

Tonight, is he going to choose to couple up with Danielle, who'd ‘stolen' him at the last firepit? Or, is he going to re-couple with Ekin-Su? 

After his recoupling speech, Luca takes Grace to the terrace to tell her more…

Gabby chat's with Tina about her and Scott's coupling on the terrace.  
The two argue over Scott's decision as the other Islanders take sides. 

The next morning they speak again as Elma admits she's "riddled with guilt" for sending home Kaz, Montel and Nas to try and help Scott and Tina work. 

Later in the day, Scott has made his decision. After first speaking it through with Luca who tells Scott he "trusts him the most", he gathers the group to the firepit to deliver the news.

That night Catherine gets a surprise text…

"Islanders, it's time to get each other's hearts racing in tonight's boys vs girls challenge #SwayandSlay #HeartWorkPaysOff"

It's time for another heart rate challenge and both teams give it their all with some cheeky performances. 

Later that night Ron gathers the boys as they're getting ready to tell them he's made a decision about his time in the Villa. Ron admits: "My time is done…"

As the Islanders are still in shock from Ron's exit, Tina gets another surprise in the form of a text…

It reads: "Girls, head to the Secret Garden, there's a bombshell waiting to meet you.

#FlirtModeActivated #DibsOnHim" 

They head to the Secret Garden to meet Chuggs as he pops the champagne for the girls. He tells them: "I don't feel nervous, I'm excited to get to know you." 

Meanwhile, the boys sit at the firepit and try to work out who the girls are talking to as to their complete surprise Samie then enters the villa and greets the boys. 
It's time for a game of spin the bottle at the firepit. The Islanders spin and have to read out a card with either a truth or dare for themselves or for the group to partake in.

Spin the bottle continues after Luca walks away from the firepit .

Later that evening, Elma gets a text asking for all of the Islanders to gather round the firepit.

Samie and Chuggs are asked to stand up and then Chuggs gets a text. 

It reads: "As the newest arrivals it's time to couple up, but who you couple up with won't be your decision…that decision is down to the public." 

The rest of the Islanders react with panic as they realise any one of them could be getting put into a different couple. 

As the public's decisions are read out to the group some Islanders are relieved and others are left reeling…

After the fallout from the public's decision to couple Samie up with Luca, Curtis checks in on Samie.

The next morning, Chuggs gets a text with news for himself and Danielle, Luca and Samie. 

It reads: "It's time for you to go on a double date, please get ready to leave the villa.

#PerfectPairings #SipSipHooray"

The Islanders say goodbye as Chuggs, Danielle, Luca and Samie head off to their afternoon at a vineyard.

That evening, Ronnie gets a surprise text, announcing news of a challenge. 

It reads: "Islanders, it's time to serve up the truth with a helping of whipped cream in tonight's All Star challenge Snog Marry or Pie #StarryPied #TimeToGetHitched" 

It's a shock to the Islanders who haven't played this game in the evening before. 

Samie gets her chance in Snog, Marry, Pie tonight and as Luca waits nervously to see if he's going to be chosen, so too does Grace. But which way will Samie go?

Then it's over to the boys for their turn in the game.

After being left confused at Omar's actions in the challenge, Catherine pulls him for a chat.
After the game is over Sammy apologises to Ekin-Su for pie-ing her during the game.

Later that afternoon while they're enjoying the heat, the Islanders get an unexpected text asking them to gather at the firepit. 

Grace gets a text which reads: "Islanders, today there will be a recoupling where the boys will choose which girls they want to couple up with."

It's decision time for the boys. For some it means solidifying their strong relationships and for others, it's about making a choice between their possible connections. 

It's a tense time with one final decision leaving two girls single and - to the shock of the Islanders - saying a sudden goodbye to the Villa…  

After telling the boys earlier in the day that he'd like to try to kiss Tina, Chuggs is keen to catch up with her later that evening.

As the Islanders get ready for the evening, Casey gets a text with exciting news for him and Gabby. 

The text reads: "Gabby and Casey, it's time for you to go on a date. Please get ready to leave the Villa #FirstDateFlutters" 

After Gabby and Casey return, Elma also gets a text. 

It reads: "Islanders, tonight the Hideaway Retreat is open, please choose a lucky couple to spend the night together #OffTheGrid"

After some enthusiasm from Ronnie, he and Harriett get the most votes and head for a night away in the Hideaway Retreat for some heart-to-heart chats. 

The texts keep coming and up next it's Curtis that gets a text announcing the Islanders will be facing a challenge that evening. 

Curtis reads out to the group: "Islanders, it's your chance to let each other know how you really feel in tonight's challenge - To Be Honest. #HonestyIsTheBestPolicy #FaceFacts"

That evening, the Islanders gather in the garden to play. Tina and Chuggs are nominated hosts and will read out a series of questions. The couples will then reveal their picks for the couples that they think best fit the answer. 

Points don't always mean prizes and the Islanders are about to find out that there can be consequences to their candour as at the end of the game Tina receives one final text which shocks the Villa… 

The Islanders are still reeling from last night's ‘To Be Honest' challenge - both because of the votes that they were given and knowing that three couples now face a public vote. 

It's Curtis's birthday, so Ekin-Su is keen to make it a day to remember. With some help from Catherine she makes breakfast and spells out "I ‘Heart' U" with a mix of fruit.

Later that evening, host Maya Jama makes a stunning return to the Villa, announcing to the Islander: "It's been a minute!" 

Maya asks all of the Islanders to meet her at the firepit, telling them: "These games cause a lot of drama in here!"

With the Islanders laughing and replying in unison: "It's never just a game in the garden!"

Maya first lets the Villa know which couple received the most votes from the public and therefore are safe, before delivering the news that one couple has been dumped from the Island immediately…

Luca and Harriett decide to talk things through again at the firepit to get their friendship back on track. 

Feeling unsure following the results of the public vote, Ekin-Su admits to the Islanders she's overthinking things. 

Later that afternoon, Elma gets a text…

"Islanders, it's time to find out what the public really think. In your couples you can ask them two questions you'd like to get their opinion on, the answers will be revealed at tonight's All Stars dinner. #DontHoldBack #FoodForThought"

As the Islanders get ready for the evening Ekin-Su asks: "Do you think it's gonna kick off? It's more the questions.."

They sit down at a beautifully laid table by the firepit and Curtis gets a text after dinner.

Islanders, as you know, the public have answered the questions you asked in your couples, here are the results.

After the eventful All Stars dinner, Ekin-Su and Curtis decide they need to air how they're feeling to Elma and Sammy. 

The next day, Ronnie gets a text revealing the boys are heading out for a different kind of challenge - a sporting one. 

The text reads: "Boys, It's time to head out of The Villa for a game of Padel. #RacketsaAndBanter #BeersOverBeef"

Safe to say they're ecstatic and waste no time in getting their trainers on and heading to the court. 

After Casey comes out on top as the Villa's resident Padel expert, they have some beers and relax.

As the girls get used to the Villa without their partners, Ekin-Su gets a text with a surprise of their own…

It reads: "Girls, whilst the boys are out, you'll get the goss with video calls from home! #RealTalk #FamilyFriends&Feedback"

The emotions are high as they anticipate who they'll get to hear from.

Some comments from their friends and family leave the girls wondering about the truth, and when they report back on their chats to one another, some aren't happy with what they hear…

After their argument last night, Elma takes the chance to speak to Ekin-Su one-to-one.
The next morning, Gabby, Elma and Catherine chat on the terrace, while Curtis, Grace and Luca are on the day beds relaxing…well within earshot of the girls upstairs.

Later that afternoon, Casey gets a text revealing they'll be putting on a show that night. 

The text reads: "Islanders, it's time to pull out a showstopper as tonight you will perform at the All Star Talent show. #BunchOfShowOffs #PerformingForClout"

The Islanders are a mix of excitement and nerves as they prepare to put on a show to remember.

After Curtis and Ekin-Su return from their night at the Hideaway Retreat, the Islanders get ready for the day.

Harriett later receives a text inviting the girls out for some shopping. 

The text reads: "Islanders, tonight each couple will have a special date in the Villa. Girls, it's time to head and prepare for a date to remember! #ValentinesYay" 

The girls head out to a local shop to pick out ingredients for the boys to make them a nice dinner that evening.
Whilst the girls are away, Curtis gets an exciting text. 

He reads aloud: "Boys, whilst the girls are out you'll get the tea with video calls from home!  #WhileTheGirlsAreAwayTheBoysPressPlay" 

Later that evening, the boys spend time setting up separate date areas across the Villa for their special dinners. From candles, to fairy lights, blankets and flowers, they're keen to make the evening as romantic as possible, with some of them having thoughts of asking important questions.

The girls are surprised with roses and dinner is served, with all of the couples feeling the love.
But the course of true love never did run smooth and when Harriett gets a text, the night takes a turn.

She reads: "Islanders, the public have been voting for their favourite couple, the three couples with the fewest votes are at risk from being dumped from the Island."

 Harriett adds: "Well, that's a way to spoil Valentine's Day!"

The Islanders get another shock as texts come through revealing exactly which three couples are in the bottom three. 

As the couples get over that news another text reveals that who stays and who goes will be decided by the dumped Islanders who are making a dramatic return to the Villa.

The Villa is left reeling, with three couples now aware that their fate is totally out of their hands. Who will the dumped Islanders favour and who will they send home? 

The Villa is still reeling from the shock announcement that the dumped Islanders will be the ones to decide who from the bottom three in the public vote will leave.

The next afternoon, Catherine gets a text for the Islanders to gather around the firepit immediately.

India, Olivia, Marcel, Kaz, Montel, Nas, Ron, Danielle, Samie, Tina and Chuggs all enter, with their vote choices written - and hidden - on heart shaped chalkboards.
But after all of their choices, which couple will receive the most votes? And how will they feel about the decision coming from their fellow Islanders? 

The firepit is host to one of the most dramatic dumplings yet as plenty of revelations are brought up about the safe Islanders too, leaving them with plenty of questions. 

The final five couples wake up and Sammy gets a text…

Finalists, get ready to dive into a good time, as you're invited to a VIP All Stars pool party! #MakingWaves #FinalFiveOnly

They're treated to a surprise performance from DJ Nathan Dawe, who plays some of his top hits and gives the Islanders an exclusive listen to his newest track ‘Here in Your Arms'.

After their pool party, the couples reflect on their time in the Villa. 

After an unforgettable return to South Africa, Love Island: All Stars series two reaches its dramatic conclusion. There's been weeks of coupling up, bombshells, steals, challenges, disagreements and shock dumpings. 

As host Maya Jama returns for the live final, which Islanders will the viewers ultimately choose to crown the winners?
