Love Island: All Stars season 2 confirms first couples
Love Island: All Stars spoilers follow.
Love Island: All Stars confirmed its first couples of the second season, with the public getting their opportunity to matchmake.
The ITV reality show returned on Monday (January 13) as host Maya Jama welcomed 12 former Islanders into the South Africa villa, where they would give love – and a host of other things – another go.
After the cast – some of whom already know each other very well – mingled in the villa via a stinging ice-breaker challenge, Maya gave the group their first surprise as she revealed that the first couplings would be determined by a public vote.

After an anxious and exciting wait, the group were paired up, with the first couples being announced as:
Kaz and Curtis
India and Scott
Catherine and Nas
Olivia and Luca
Elma and Ronnie
Gabby and Marcel
The pairings, particularly the reunion of former couple Gabby and Marcel, were remarked upon by fans on social media, with one user writing on X/Twitter: "Looks like the public are choosing Gabby and Marcel to couple for the absolute CHAOS #LoveIslandAllStars #LoveIsland #LoveIslandAllStars2025."
"#LoveIslandAllStars elma and ronnie and kaz and curtis are the only couples with some vibes so far," said a second fan, with a third writing: "Intrigued to see what couples come out of this because I don’t see it for any of them #LoveIslandAllStars."

Naturally, it wasn't long before a twist was introduced, with season eight winner Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu being unveiled as the first bombshell of the season. It was revealed that she would have a day to decide which boy she would steal, but not before she had three dates in the (not so) Secret Garden.
Which trio will she choose for her dates, and which newly-formed couple will she split up just a day into the season?...
Love Island: All Stars airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
