Love Island All Stars Ends in Shocking One-Percent Final Vote
Tonight, Love Island All Stars wrapped up its most dramatic season yet and the tension couldn’t have been higher. After a delayed start caused by wildfires in Cape Town, the series surged to ratings success, culminating in a finale decided by the slimmest of margins—a single percentage point separating the top two couples.
Fans watched as Lucinda Strafford, a veteran of multiple Love Island seasons including the Australian spin-off and international Love Island Games, competed alongside her sweet shop owner partner, Sean. They edged out Scott Van Der Sluis and his partner Leanna Amaning, with just 28.8 percent backing Lucinda and Sean, compared to 27.7 percent for Scott and Leanna. Third place went to Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davies. The outcome sparked debate, as many viewers had previously questioned Lucinda and Sean’s authenticity on camera, while Belle Hassan and Harrison Solomon were widely deemed the least genuine, polling as the couple least likely to succeed outside the villa.

This season introduced a unique global twist, bringing six American All Stars into the villa. While some new connections formed, including Yamen Sanders with Whitney Adebayo and Zac Woodworth with Millie Court, viewers were skeptical about their longevity due to the challenges of long-distance relationships. The series reflected this, with only a small fraction of fans believing these pairs would last beyond the villa.
The finale itself was far from a quiet affair. Returning ex-Islanders staged a firepit showdown, a tense moment designed by the cast to expose secrets and settle scores. Drama erupted as past relationships and hidden truths came to light, with confrontations between Harrison, Lauren Wood and others leaving viewers riveted. The series drew more than 12,000 complaints to Ofcom, but it also received praise for the compelling mix of romance and tension, with over 60 percent of fans rating the series four or five stars.
Hosting once again, Maya Jama commanded attention, earning a 75 percent approval rating—the highest since she took over in 2023. Her presence was a key factor in keeping viewers engaged, highlighting her growing influence as a fixture of the Love Island franchise. Beyond the ratings, this season also broke records for the number of romantic moments captured, giving fans more than 50 on-screen kisses in the first four days alone.
Love Island All Stars has proven that even veteran reality formats can reinvent themselves, blending old favorites with new faces and global twists. As the dust settles on this record-breaking season, the question now is which of these couples will endure beyond the cameras and how this latest chapter will shape the future of the franchise. Stay tuned for continuing coverage and follow us for updates as these stories develop outside the villa.
