Love Island All Stars: The 2025 Finale—Chaos, Crowns, and a Hairdresser's Unexpected Win!
Okay, so the Love Island: All Stars 2025 finale? Total rollercoaster. Casey O’Gorman and Gabby Allen snagged the £50,000 prize, leaving everyone with a mix of "Yay!" and "Huh?" reactions. Honestly, who saw that coming?
A Darwen Hairdresser's Island-Inspired Success
Gabriella Bellusci, a hairdresser from Darwen, is a finalist in the Lancashire Telegraph’s Best Hairdresser competition. And get this—she's worked with Love Island star Zara McDermott and even Miss Universe Gibraltar, Grace Davis! She’s even opened a second salon in Gibraltar! Talk about dedication. It just goes to show how the ripple effect of reality TV can reach beyond the villa and into unexpected places.
The Winners (and the Whining!)
Casey and Gabby’s win sparked a *lot* of debate online. Many viewers on X (formerly Twitter) joked that the win was less about their undeniable chemistry and more about preventing Casey from returning for a fourth season. I mean, they called it his "yearly holiday"! It's funny, but also highlights the crazy level of fan engagement.
Luca Bish and Grace Jackson came in second, followed by Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard in third. Catherine Agbaje and Omar Nyame were fourth, and Elma Pazar and Sammy Root finished fifth. Sammy's reaction to their fifth-place finish? Let's just say it fueled a lot of online chatter. You know how sometimes things just spiral…
Post-Finale Feuds: The Drama Never Ends!
The finale wasn’t just about the winners; the drama continued! The Olivia Hawkins and Grace Jackson feud, oh boy. And Ronnie Vint even threatened to release some compromising photos! It’s like they couldn’t let go of the spotlight, even after the cameras stopped rolling. This show is a true masterclass in keeping the drama alive, long after the final episode airs.
Beyond the Winners: Love, Plans, and New Beginnings
It wasn’t all fighting, though. Elma and Sammy confirmed they’re officially exclusive, which was sweet. And Luca and Grace were discussing their future plans. Seeing these couples navigate their post-villa lives is a really interesting part of the show – it’s a reminder that this isn’t just a game, it’s real life with real consequences (and real relationships!).
Love Island's Enduring Power: More Than Just a Show
Love Island continues to be a total phenomenon. It's a captivating mix of romance, drama, and larger-than-life personalities. And its influence spreads far beyond the contestants. Gabriella Bellusci’s success is a perfect example of that. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just a casual viewer, you can’t deny its impact.
