Love Island stars pack on the PDA as they arrive back in UK and meet each other’s families
The hit reality show came to an epic conclusion on Monday night, when one of the remaining couples were crowned the winners after spending several weeks in the South African villa.
Casey O’Gorman and Gabby Allen won this year’s All Stars series, with Luca Bish and Grace Jackson placing second, and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard placing third.
And after landing, Grace and Luca were seen holding hands as they strolled side by side.
Gabby watched on while Casey danced away in the airport while grabbing luggage and putting on her coat.
The couple looked in great spirits as they walked along, with Casey placing a hand on Gabby’s back as they beamed at the cameras and shared a kiss.
He penned to fans: “Can you tell how excited we are to be BACK on home soil?!
“What an unforgettable experience! I’ve been going through all your lovely messages on my journey home.
“I’m truly humbled and grateful, I wouldn’t change a thing.”
Catherine and Omar also looked happy after cosying up on the plane together and falling asleep.
They shared a kiss at the airport, with Catherine seen clutching a large bouquet of flowers.
And Sammy was greeted by a line of pals wearing masks with his face on in a playful welcome home gesture.
He placed his arm around Elma in another snap as the Towie pair grinned away.
In other scenes, Ekin-Su was spotted meeting Curtis’ brother AJ Pritchard and giving him a hug.
He had brought along some gold initial balloons for the couple in a sweet gesture.
Curtis and Ekin kissed as they picked up their luggage, looking totally smitten.
It wasn’t the best news for Curtis though, as he headed out of the airport to discover that his car had been broken into.
The All Stars Islander showed off the damage to his Mercedes, which included a smashed rear windscreen.
After Curtis revealed the car had been “robbed”, AJ said: “I am livid! I can’t even speak right now.”
Meanwhile, just hours before arriving home, Curtis and Ekin-Su finally went Instagram official, as he got her number after the Love Island final.
The couple were seen on social media looking happier than ever as they finally got their phones back and put in each other’s digits.
Ekin could be heard saying: “He’s finally saved my number,” as the pair laughed together.
In the aftermath of the grand finale on Monday night, some of the axed Islanders shared snaps of themselves on the way back to the UK too.
Ron Hall, Chuggs Wallis, Montel McKenzie and Nas Majeed were all seen departing Cape Town in snaps shared by one another online.
In photos shared by Montel, he was seen posing with Nas as they made their way onto a plane.
He also shared a snap of Chuggs, Ron and Nas as they wheeled their suitcases through Cape Town International Airport.
The Islanders’ return comes as fans process the shocking result of the Love Island final.
All Stars 2025 winners Casey and Gabby were the underdogs in a nail-biting finale, going head-to-head with the bookies’ favourites Grace and Luca.
Some fans even went as far to brand the show “fixed”.
One person said on X: “Did you not hear the shout for Luca and Grace? So much louder than Gabby and Casey, it’s a fix.”
And another said: “The engagement says it all Luca and Grace should have won,” referring to the amount of likes and views content of Luca and Grace got compared to Casey and Gabby
Speaking to Maya before they were crowned, Casey gushed over Gabby and insisted he had already won.
He told Maya after finding out they were in the final two: “I absolutely adore her (Gabby).
“She has just blown me off my socks since I got here.
“As soon as that first conversation I had with her, it was game over for me.”
Gabby and Casey will now collect and then split the jaw-dropping £50,000 prize.
Not only do they take home the cash, but also the title of second-ever All Stars winners as the series comes to an end.
