Love Island All Stars 2026: Final Countdown as Winners Set to be Crowned

London, 23 February 2026 – The third series of Love Island All Stars reaches its dramatic conclusion tonight as the live final broadcasts from the villa. After weeks of recouplings, bombshell arrivals, and high-stakes dumpings, the British public will decide which couple will walk away with the £50,000 prize. Host Maya Jama is set to reveal the results in what bookmakers and internal polls suggest is the closest voting margin in the show’s history, with reportedly only one per cent separating the top two couples.
The Road to the Final
The final week has been defined by “brutal” eliminations that saw several fan favourites depart just days before the grand finale. Notable exits included Belle and Harrison, who were voted out by their fellow Islanders, and Whitney and Yamen, who suffered a significant setback in public polling hours before the final. The remaining couples, including Sean Stone and Lucinda Strafford, as well as Scott van-der-Sluis and Leanne Amaning, have spent their final day in the villa celebrating with a traditional BBQ before the evening’s live proceedings begin at 21:00 on ITV2 and ITVX.
