Tom and Molly won the All Stars series and have been one of the only couples to stand the test of time from the spin-off series.
Their fellow Love Island pals were quick to congratulate them as Tom’s best pal Casey O’Gorman reshared the post alongside crying emojis.
Liberty Poole, Paige Thorne and Luca Bish also offered their best wishes in the comments section.
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 in 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 insisted was 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.
Speaking to the Daily Mail last year, Molly said: ‘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…’
The couple bought their first home together last summer, with Molly giving the Daily Mail an update at the time.
She said: ‘We’re happier than ever – renovating our forever home together is a total dream come true!
‘Working with Gtech has come at such perfect timing with our renovation and it’s really exciting to be working with a brand that we love together.’
Captioning her TikTok post, Molly wrote at the time: ‘We bought our first home,’ before she also shared on Instagram: ‘Home is where the heart is – We’ve officially bought our first home we couldn’t be happier’.
She also tagged the couple’s new home renovation account, which reads: ‘Get ready for the house renovation because it’s going to be a good one’.
The pair were inundated with messages of support from their fellow islanders as they rushed to congratulate the pair on the milestone.
Before that the pair had confirmed that they had moved in together to Molly’s place in Manchester last June during an episode of Love Island Aftersun.
Molly previously teased the idea telling Olivia Attwood on her So Wrong It’s Right podcast back in April of that year that the professional footballer would be moving into her home in Manchester.
Tom, who at the time lived in Battersea, London, with his best pal Casey, had been fluttering in between his home and Molly’s.
Molly said at the time: ‘He lives in Battersea but he’s moving out. So poor Casey’s probably thinking, Oh great. I’m stealing him. But he’s moving in with me in Manchester.
‘So I know people probably think like, “oh it’s quite quick”, but we’ve practically lived together from the day we’ve met, and he’s practically living at mine now. Slowly but surely there’s been drawers getting filled up.

The violinist added to the romantic atmosphere
Olivia said: ‘So he’s been moving himself in unofficially.’
Molly joked: ‘Yeah, his had his little plan all along.’
The pair set tongues wagging among eagle-eyed fans as they soaked up the sun in the Indian Ocean island paradise in August of last year.
Tom hinted that he had popped the question to Molly as he took to his Instagram to post a mirror selfie of the pair captioning it with: ‘Wifey.’
In the stunning snap, the loved-up pair both looked incredibly tanned as Tom gently placed his hand around Molly’s waist for the snap.
