Love Island fans gutted as they spot ‘missing’ part of All Stars finale
LOVE Island fans were disappointed as a huge part of the final was “missing” and many begged for it to return next series.
Last night’s All Stars final saw Tom Clare and Molly Smith scoop the £50k prize – beating her ex-boyfriend Callum Jones and Jess Gale.
But ITV2 viewers were fuming that the winners weren’t asked whether they wanted to ‘split or steal’ the money.
The iconic element was cut back in 2023, but fans were hoping it would make a comeback for the spin-off series.
It usually sees the winning couple each presented with an envelope, one being empty and one containing the £50k prize – the person who receives the money is then asked whether they want to ‘steal’ it, or ‘split’ with their partner.
Some viewers were hoping it would put Molly and Tom’s loyalty to the test, with many hoping Molly would steal the money for herself.
One fan wrote: “Thought they were doing the split or steal twist?”
A second posted: “Tom is such a boring background character. Molly should have stolen the money and run off with Callum.”
This viewer shared: “Wasn’t there rumours that the split/steal the money option was gonna be there again?”
One hopeful fan shared this before the results were announced: “Molly please steal the 50K and run off into the sunset with Callum.”
Another added: “Please bring back the split or steal twist for the next series. It’s the best part of the final.”
Tom shot to fame during last year’s winter series of Love Island and left the villa with Samie Elishi.
He was accused of “recycling” the same chat up lines and some Molly supporters previously accused him of “using” her to get to the final.
And many fans became obsessed with the idea of Molly getting back together with ex Callum.
The couple split in September after more than three years together but eagle-eyed fans pointed out a number of things throughout the series that left them convinced they’d eventually reunite.
During the infamous Heart Rate Challenge each girl had the task of trying to get the boys’ blood pumping.
There’s no doubt she got most of the boys hot under the collar but it was Callum she had the biggest effect on, as it was later revealed she raised his heart rate the most.
Viewers also spotted how Molly and Callum appeared to smile at each other after the heart rate results were revealed.
Molly and Callum also raised eyebrows when they joined forces to make breakfast for Tom and Jess.
