Love Island stars reunite to watch final in Manchester after missing out on villa return
LOVE Island stars dressed to impress at a special viewing party in Manchester after missing out on a villa return.
The swanky screening, hosted by fast-fashion brand boohoo, was led by ambassador and former Love Island All Stars champ Molly Smith, 30.
The fitness brand founder looked sensational in a cobalt blue strappy top and matching mini skirt.
She finished off her look with a gold clutch bag and matching sandals.
Molly, whose partner Tom Clare, 24, was watching from home with his best mate Casey O’Gorman, 27, styled her blonde hair into beachy waves and made sure she was glowing with a picture-perfect tan.
Her close pal from All Stars, Arabella Chi, 33, was also seen at the shindig at Manchester’s Dear Sailor cocktail bar, as well as Tanya Manhenga, 24.
Yet it was the Casa Amor stars of 2024 – who missed out on an invite back to the ITV2 villa for the live final – who also looked eager to make their mark.
Love Island’s first dumped star, Patsy Field, this week revealed other axed alumni were staying in swanky secret villas close to the main compound.
She captured the “girls villa” featuring a huge outside pool filled with inflatables and a stunning brick entrance.
Yet for those who didn’t make the cut, the bash in the northern city was an amazing second best.
Axed stars Tiffany Leighton, 25, Lolly Hart, 30, Ellie Jackson, 22, and Lucy Greybill, 26, all dazzled on their arrival.
Meanwhile former season nine star Liv Hawkins, 29, couldn’t be missed in a black cut-out frock.
Diamante Laiva, 21, who also missed out on a return flight to Mallorca, oozed elegance in double denim.
Scott Van Der Sluis and Mitch Taylor represented for the boys
The matchmaking series gang gathered to watch Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan crowned champions.
The duo made history as the first all black couple to triumph in the nail biting finale.

Jaws dropped around the Majorca villa when Maya Jama announced Mimii and Josh had won after being coupled up for just two weeks.
Mimii, 24, admitted her surprise and told Maya: “I wasn’t expecting this” and said that she felt “over stimulated, overwhelmed, grateful”.
The loved-up pair celebrated winning the £50k prize pot with a big kiss before mental health nurse Mimii broke down in tears.
