Love Island All Stars 2026 is set to deliver another explosive episode tonight, with a first look revealing a heated battle between bombshells Samie Elishi and Lucinda Strafford over contestant Ciaran Davies. The drama unfolds following a shocking recoupling that has left the villa in turmoil.
Recoupling Fallout Sparks Conflict
In last night's episode, audiences watched as Lucinda Strafford made a surprising decision to couple up with Ciaran Davies, despite not previously listing him among her top three choices. This move has not gone down well with fellow islanders, particularly Samie Elishi, who was previously paired with Ciaran. The tension between the two women is palpable, setting the stage for a dramatic confrontation.
Lucinda's Controversial Move
After the recoupling at the fire pit, Lucinda pulled Ciaran aside for a private chat. She explained, "I really like Samie and she’s such a lovely girl but at the same time I’m here for me and I really want to put myself first. How do you feel about everything?" Ciaran responded with surprise, stating, "Well, yeah I was shocked… I said to you I’m open and I’m interested in you. But the thing is you can still get to know Tommy and get to know Sean."
Terrace Tensions Escalate
The following day, the situation grew even more intense as Lucinda and Ciaran headed to the terrace for a flirty chat. Other islanders suspected they might have shared a kiss, adding fuel to the fire. Samie, unable to contain her curiosity, confronted Lucinda directly in the dressing room, asking if they had kissed. Lucinda's evasive reply only heightened the drama: "I don’t want to talk about it. But, like, don’t take that as a yes or a no."
Tommy's Emotional Struggle
Elsewhere in the villa, contestant Tommy broke down in tears as he struggled to form a connection with any of the girls. Opening up to Samie, he confessed that he believes his age has become a significant barrier. Tommy shared, "Where I was on it [the show] in the summer and I felt like I had that connection straight away and now I’ve come in here and, I’ll be honest, I feel like the age thing has been a big issue with a lot of the girls. I didn’t really understand why before coming in… but I am at a different stage of life than a lot of the girls in here. I do feel like I’m ready for a relationship and that is why I’m here."
What to Expect Tonight
