The couple met when Molly was a Casa Amor bombshell on the 2020 season and went on to have a three-year relationship, even moving in together in Manchester.
But they broke up just six months ago and had an awkward on-screen reunion when they both shockingly entered the South African villa during the All Stars launch.
Callum was revealed to be the first bombshell shaking things up in the villa directly after host Maya Jama coupled up the main line-up of former show legends.
However in an epic and very unexpected twist, Molly walked in directly after him as a second bombshell, leaving Callum completely stunned.
Upon her entrance, Callum was wide-eyed as Molly strutted her stuff through the doors, leaving the rest of the villa reeling at the very uncomfortable reunion.
Maya then explained that Callum would have a choice between stealing one of the girls from an existing couple, or coupling up with his ex-girlfriend Molly.

Toby Aromolaran was coupled up with Georgia Steel, but was convinced that she would be stolen away by Callum, as he whispered to her: ‘He’s going to pick you.’
Toby and Georgia recently formed a connection on Love Island Games, but did not pursue their romance any further, and were given a second chance on All Stars.
In September, it emerged that Callum and Molly had gone their separate ways after three years together.
Callum moved out of their Manchester home following the break-up, with a source claiming that Molly had wanted to get engaged.
Insiders told The Sun at the time: ‘It’s really sad as they were a sweet couple together but it’s over – and has been for a few weeks.
‘They’re trying to stay friends – they were together for over three years – but it’s difficult. I think in the end, Molly wanted to get engaged and that didn’t happen.
‘Everyone was really surprised when they split as they were perfectly matched. He’s now moved out of the home they shared and they’ve split custody of their two dogs.’
Molly and Callum met on the first-ever winter edition of the ITV dating show in 2020, where they left before the finale.
The couple moved into a lavish four-bedroom house in Manchester that November after meeting on the show.
Former scaffolder Callum previously revealed that he can see himself marrying model Molly and potentially having children together.
Last year, he gave a now-poignant interview in which he hit back at people who judged them, revealing they have ‘proved a few people wrong’ after recently celebrating their two year anniversary.
He said: ‘We are perfect. We’ve got two dogs so we’ve got a proper little family going, it’s lovely. There is other things we want to focus on at the minute but obviously in the future it’s definitely something we both want together…
‘We’ve just not really decided when. We’re just enjoying things that we’ve got at the minute and then family and marriage will eventually come into it.’
Callum explained that viewers of the dating show judge islanders but only see a segment of each day: ‘People can judge from an outside perspective…
‘Obviously they don’t see 24 hours of Love Island, they only see 60 minutes so people can obviously judge but we’re still together. That was the main thing I went in there for so yeah, I’d say we’ve proved a few people wrong.’
Reflecting on his experience, he said: ‘I didn’t think I was going to get a girlfriend and we were gonna live together. I was really open minded and the thing I really wanted was to find someone.

Callum entered the show as one of the original contestants and connected with Shaughna Phillips at the beginning.
The couple’s relationship continued to blossom until the infamous Casa Amor came along – which saw Molly’s arrival to the show.
Molly and Callum hit it off upon meeting, and he decided to return to the villa with her – leaving Shaughna devastated as she was left to fly solo.
