description: There are new champions in town!
encoded: It's been a long six weeks in the Love Island villa, filled with grafting, recouplings, secret garden visits, American bombshells and plot twists aplenty. And now, the time has come to crown the winners of ITV's third outing of Love Island All Stars, with a crop of Islanders all hoping for a second chance at love, and for some, it seems to have paid off. Once more, host Maya Jama took audiences through the finalists' last day in the villa before revealing that Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davies were the winners of season 3. Along with the title of champions, the couple won a £50,000 cash prize which they split evenly between themselves. Millie Court and Zac Woodworth just missed out on the first place spot, but were quick to congratulate the winners after a long winter of romance. The couple join previous winners Molly Smith and Tom Clare, and Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman, the latter of which split up shortly after their 2025 win. However, All Stars does pay off with Molly and Tom now engaged to be married - will the latest winners have the same fate? To say this series has been a rollercoaster would be putting it lightly, with the producers keeping the Islanders on their toes each day. Halfway through the season, the Islanders were introduced to six bombshells all hailing from America, all of whom were looking for another chance at love. However only two of them made it to the final. Prior to the series airing, Love Island's creative director Mike Spencer-Hayter was asked if international bombshells would enter the villa, but was sure to remain coy. He said at the time: "I will say, some things should be kept a secret. You can imagine that we have a very exciting order of bombshells and they might have different postcodes." There isn't long to wait before another Love Island fix is delivered, with the summer series returning in June. We can't wait! Love Island All Stars season 1-3 are available to watch on catch-up on ITVX. Check out more of our Entertainment coverag…

description: Our unofficial dictionary guide to what the Islanders are on about with their melty, salty, snakey and aggy lingo, phrases and sayings.
encoded: Love Island has seen the birth of superstar careers, a handful of babies and, most importantly, a decades worth of cheeky lingo fit for its very own dictionary. Since its inception in 2015, Love Island has provided viewers with hilarious memes that'll go down in reality TV history but also a flurry of words and phrases, with the list growing longer each year. Since 2015, Love Island lingo has taken on a life of its own, with words such as 'snakey', 'salty', 'aggy' and 'chaldish' worming their way into our every day lexicon, and although some haven't caught on, there have been some that are still used to this day. Over the course of All Stars season 3 there has been one phrase viewers aren't too clued up on. 'Charge it', courtesy of Whitney Adebayo, has become a mainstay on ITV2 every night, but what on earth does it mean? If you're already a bit confused just reading this and need to swot up ahead of the final, then we've got you covered. Here's an extensive break down of the phrases and words commonly said by Love Islanders. Love Island lingo breakdown Charge it (verb) Variation: "Charge it to the game" Often used to dismiss drama. To acknowledge a negative event like a rejection but not letting it affect you. On job (verb) When someone isn't in a solid couple and tries to figure out if they have a stronger connection outside of their couple. Usually they'll be talking to lots of other people trying to find that spark. Eggy Boff (noun) A game played between people in which if you become an Eggy Boff, no one can talk to you or acknowledge you. Mug (adjective) (noun) Also: -gy, -ged off Mug – to be made a fool of; to be regarded as a bit of a wally Mugged Off – to be dumped, lied to, ignored or generally treated poorly by either your other half or a fellow islander (see also: Pied Off) Muggy – acting in a disingenuous or deceptive way, eg going behind an Islander’s back and making romantic suggestions towards a fellow villa resident The ick (noun) Variation: You're g…

This year's cast includes a cohort of Islanders from bombshells to winners alike. Just some of the Islanders include former winners Jess Harding and Millie Court, and bombshells who didn't have long enough in the villa, like Charlie Frederick and Jack Keating. The latest outing is extended also, with the Islanders due to spend six weeks in the villa rather than the usual five weeks the past two seasons have had. Ahead of the series launch, Love Island's creative director Mike Spencer-Hayter teased some very exciting bombshells are headed into the villa.

When asked if the rumours were true that there could be bombshells from different shows worldwide, Spencer-Hayter added: "I will say, some things should be kept a secret. "You can imagine that we have a very exciting order of bombshells and they might have different postcodes." Love I…

encoded: Olivia Attwood has proven herself a mainstay on television screens ever since she appeared on Love Island in 2017, and has carved herself out an impeccable career since. Looking into 2026, the reality star turned TV presenter has a stacked year ahead, from the brand new Celebrity Sabotage and The Heat to the hotly anticipated fourth season of Getting Filthy Rich as she dives deeper into the online adult industry, something she is immensely proud to be fronting once more. "[I'm] very proud to be on a fourth series, especially in this climate," Attwood told RadioTimes.com in an exclusive interview. "We all know it's more difficult than ever to get recommissions and to keep viewers engaged. And I think that obviously the channel [ITV2] had the appetite, but the channel had the appetite because the viewers are there." The new series kicks off this week (17th January), as Attwood interviews celebrities like Katie Price and Kerry Katona as they share their experiences of selling sexual content online. Over the past three series, Attwood has explored all corners of the online adult industry, and just from her followers online, she knew there were more stories to be told. "People are constantly asking, 'When's there going to be more Getting Filthy Rich?' So I knew there was definitely an appetite for more and once we got into filming and development, you realise how much there still is to cover." Attwood admitted that filming the fourth series proved to her that there is "no limit to how much of this you could cover", adding: "Because the industry is just so vast and it's so rapidly evolving." Throughout each series, Attwood steps out of her comfort zone and into a world somewhat alien to her, which she thinks helps viewers gain an added layer of understanding to what is already being shown before their eyes. "I will become as involved as I can," Attwood told RadioTimes.com. "Some things I'm limited to how much I can, other areas I can get way more involved. I think it puts…

In a statement provided to RadioTimes.com, a spokesperson for ITV said: "Further to a production evacuation owing to ongoing wildfires in the area, our assessment of the location site has concluded that filming will need to be postponed. "Health and safety is our greatest priority and will always come first, and therefore the transmission of Love Island: All Stars will be delayed until a date to be confirmed."

encoded: Love Island All Stars will be returning with a bang next week (12th January), as a new group of former Islanders head into the iconic villa for a second chance at love. But their chances at love may not be as smooth sailing, with this year's theme being that of unfinished business... All Stars is no stranger to introducing bombshells in the form of ex partners – as well as bombshells who may not even share the same country of residence as the Islanders. Last year's summer series introduced Toni Laites, a bombshell hailing from the US who went on to find love and win the programme. Meanwhile, the 2023 winter series introduced Aussie bombshells, one of whom has since gotten engaged to someone she met on the show! With plenty of rumours, the question on many people's minds is: Could there be some international bombshells arriving on Love Island All Stars? Well, Love Island's creative director Mike Spencer-Hayter recently teased: "I'm very excited and remember, we are very tactical. "We have done our matchmaking in our heads and we have some incredible bombshells waiting in the wings and some big twists to go alongside those." When asked if the rumours were true that there could be bombshells from different shows worldwide, Spencer-Hayter added: "I will say, some things should be kept a secret. "You can imagine that we have a very exciting order of bombshells and they might have different postcodes." Consider us excited! Love Island: All Stars returns on Monday 12th January at 9pm on ITV2.

encoded: Later this year, Love Island will mark 11 years on air as the reality series continues to generate conversation and buzz year in and year out – and there are no signs of it slowing down. In addition to its regular summer run, the series is making a return this month with the third outing of Love Island: All Stars, featuring iconic Islanders across all seasons. This year's line-up includes former winners Millie Court and Jess Harding and more recent stars Tommy Bradley and Helena Ford, all of whom are looking for love. In a show that increasingly produces the same content, the producers are always looking to switch things up, in order for it to be as popular as it can. "Our main focus is to keep the format fresh," creative director Mike Spencer-Hayter told RadioTimes.com and other press. "We are the number one dating show in the world. We still are, but we will also continue to be, because we have a fantastic team." The Love Island format has been produced in over 20 different countries worldwide, with the US season continuing to break records for streamer Peacock. Just last year, the seventh season of Love Island USA saw 18.4 billion streaming minutes, making it the most watched original season of television on the platform. And the UK series is proving the nation still want all the sun-soaked drama it provides, with 1.3 million viewers tuning in for the latest Love Island summer finale. Spencer-Hayter continued: "We're constantly ripping up the whole book. I think, tactically, we will continue to change elements of the brilliant format to make it even better and stronger."

encoded: It's time for another sun-soaked winter as Love Island All Stars makes a grand return next month! ITV has confirmed that the reality series will be making its way back to TV screens on Monday 12th January on ITV2 and ITVX, and is set to be the longest one yet. Earlier this year, ITV confirmed that the reality series would return for an extended third series, meaning the series will run for a bumper six weeks instead of five. "Love Island: All Stars has quickly established itself as a stand-alone hit, keeping fans of the show gripped by iconic Islanders from the past 10 years returning for another chance to find love," said Mike Spencer-Hayter, Creative Director at Lifted Entertainment. "We are very excited about series 3 and you can expect the twists and turns to continue in All Stars, after an incredible smash hit summer series." The series will once again welcome fan favourite Islanders from the past 10 years of the show back to the villa where things all began. As they search for that much-wanted spark, they will also navigate the relationship dilemmas of bombshells, heads turning and what it truly means to be open. At the start of the year, Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman walked away as winners, though their relationship fizzled out once the cameras stopped rolling. Love Island and Love Island: All Stars has proved to be one of ITV’s biggest shows for 16-34 audiences, having been the most popular programme of the day amongst the demographic over 450 times. The show has also been streamed on ITVX over 2 billion times. Amanda Stavri, Commissioning Editor of Reality at ITV commented: "With over 2 billion streams, the Love Island brand continues to thrive, with our All Stars series fast becoming a staple in our reality schedule. We can’t wait to kick start our third series and set about bringing back some of the viewers’ favourite Islanders for another unmissable series."
