Their romance is also still going strong, with the couple recently confirming they are taking the next step in their relationship by moving in together.

And producers have teased ex-Islanders are queuing up to star in series two of All Stars with some big names and fan favourites likely to return.

Confirming the news, host Maya Jama, 29, said, ‘Love Island: All Stars series two is commissioned and coming in the New Year.’

The return of All Stars means ex-Islanders won’t be welcome on the civilian series, as fans have seen in previous years with Adam Collard and Kady McDermott entering the villa for a second chance at love.

Executive Producer, Mike Spencer, explained, ‘As a separate format All Stars is fantastic and for the fans, All Stars is iconic… and now it may be best to keep ex-Islanders on All Stars. Lots of fun people have been in contact about it from series one and onwards. We will save ex-Islanders for All Stars.’

All Stars, which is filmed in South Africa, marks 10 years of the franchise after the first series of Love Island was broadcast in June 2015. 

Season one of All Stars was won by returning Islanders Molly and Tom with Callum Jones and Eve Gale coming in second place.

Molly was a bombshell arrival, to the shock of her ex-boyfriend Callum, who she met filming the winter addition of the show in 2020.

Viewers became invested with the possibility of Molly and Callum rekindling their three-year relationship, but the fitness model pursued her romantic connection with Tom instead.

Callum and Eve split weeks after the show finished amid reporters he cheated with another woman, which Callum insists is untrue because the couple had already separated.

Since winning All Stars, Molly has secured several lucrative deals including with clothing retailer boohoo, US fitness supplement Alani Nu, jewellery brand Abbott Lyon and global makeup giants L’Oréal Paris and Maybelline.

Her romance with Macclesfield footballer Tom is still going strong, with Molly telling MailOnline he has proven to be more mature than her previous partners despite their five year age difference. 

She said: ‘We have gelled really well together. We have got to know each other more and have been going from strength to strength… I feel like we’re both so happy. It has actually been one of the easiest transitions in a relationship for me.

‘You know sometimes when you think, ‘Is this too good to be true?’ I don’t like jinxing things but right now I can’t fault our relationship. Moving in together is the next step, we are practically living together as is… we just haven’t made it official yet.

‘Our age difference used to bother me, but I have been with people in the past who have been older and shown less maturity than Tom does… Tom for his age, shows so much maturity and he’s actually treated me better than anyone I’ve been with…’
