Love Island winners Tom Clare and Molly Smith have finally made their romance official with a romantic proposal. 

The happy couple, aged 24 and 30 respectively, walked away victorious on the inaugural All Star format of the show earlier this month and have since remained quiet over their relationship status before their big announcement. 

On Wednesday, the personal trainer took to TikTok to share a sweet video of a hotel bed covered in roses spelling out the words: ‘Will you be my girlfriend?’

His sweet gesture comes after Tom admitted his frustrations over fans’ desires for Molly to rekindle with her ex-boyfriend Callum Jones – before branding his former flame Georgia Steel the ‘snakiest’ contestant.

The footballer says he ‘understands’ why fans want the former couple to have a ‘fairytale ending’ but he can’t help but feel down about the social media reaction. 

After becoming the first ever All Stars champions, Tom insists he has no doubts that Molly, 29, and Callum, 27, are over and he believes there was no sign of a connection between them in the South African villa.

And Tom revealed in order to make his relationship with Molly work that he’s planning to move from London where he currently lives to Manchester, which coincidences with him rejoining his old football team Macclesfield.

He said: ‘I’ve come out and I’ve seen a lot of messages that say Molly and Callum should get back together and it’s s*** to see, it is s***, but in the villa there was no sign of it.

‘If there had been an incline, if there was flirting, I would have addressed it but there was nothing at all. I understand it, they want the fairytale and they had been together a long time but at the end of the day it is still s*** to see.’

During their time on the show, it was revealed that Georgia and Tom had ‘history’, with the pair previously dating before finding themselves on the All Stars lineup.

But Tom says their romance wasn’t as serious as Georgia alleged on the series and he claims they only met up ‘twice’ outside of the villa.

Speaking to Sophie Habboo and Melissa Tattam on their podcast Wednesdays, he said: ‘Obviously I must have seen Georgia for two days outside of the villa… we weren’t seeing each other. We weren’t dating or anything like that. I wouldn’t class it as history at all.’

His sweet gesture comes after Tom admitted his frustrations over fans’ desires for Molly to rekindle with her ex-boyfriend Callum Jones – before branding his former flame Georgia Steel the ‘snakiest’ contestant 

During a quick-fire round of questions, Tom and Molly agreed that Georgia, who’s taken a ‘break’ from social media due to the level of trolling she’s received, was the ‘snakiest’ Islander

Molly also revealed a comment Georgia made which wasn’t aired during the show’s Heart Rate Challenge, where Islanders perform seductive routines for each other. 

She added: ‘She did try to spend a lot of time with Tom…  

‘She did say one thing to us that I don’t think was aired. After Tom had done his Heart Rate Challenge and when he left, she shouted across me to Arabella [Chi], “He put his hand on my chest and neck” or whatever… “I wonder how he knew how to do that… and I was just sat there.”‘

Molly and Tom won the All Stars series and scooped the £50,000 prize fund while Callum came second with new love interest Jess Gale

Molly felt uncomfortable by comments made by her love rival Georgia including a remark she said during the show’s Heart Rate Challenge about Tom knowing where to put his hands

Molly and Callum split four months before appearing on Love Island: All Stars but were confronted by their breakup as soon as they entered the villa

Molly and Callum split four months before appearing on Love Island: All Stars but were confronted by their breakup as soon as they entered the villa.

Callum was given the decision by host Maya Jama to couple up with Molly or ‘steal’ one of the other female contestants and out of respect to his former relationship, he picked his ex. 

And now Molly says she is thankful the show gave her a ‘glam squad’ to prepare her for the moment she first arrived and was faced with the dramatic reunion. 

She said: ‘They showed me who the starting lineup was, and he wasn’t in it so I was thinking, ah great, I can have my moment, I’ll get settled and he’ll probably come in a week or so, but I might have a connection… 

‘I walked in and he was already in there, I saw the back of his head and I thought, cheers… that’s great isn’t it. Thank God there was a glam squad or that could have been awkward. I got hair and makeup done before I went in.’
