Love Island All Stars Season 3 win reshapes finalists’ futures — who feels the impact first

SPOILER ALERT: This coverage contains details about the finale of Love Island: All Stars Season 3. The outcome matters most for the five finalist couples, the returning islanders who re-entered public view, and the Villa USA entrants whose presence changed the dynamic; public voting decided the prize and will shape how these relationships are perceived going forward. The winter season of couplings, dumpings and bombshells has closed with a new winning pair.

Who feels the change first: finalists, returning stars and Villa USA entrants

Here’s the part that matters: the couples who reached the final now face immediate public scrutiny, media attention and the practical choice of whether to convert on‑show chemistry into off‑show relationships. The public vote that decided the winners also decides the cash split and public momentum for each couple, so the emotional and career impact is concentrated on those who finished in the top five and the returning islanders who had fresh profiles by season’s end.

Love Island finale: vote mechanics, hosts and how the result was revealed

The season concluded with the five remaining couples placed before a public vote that determined the winners and the sharing of a cash prize of £50, 000. The finale was hosted by Maya Jama and narrated by Iain Stirling. After voting closed and a short recap of island life, including a barbecue, the host revealed where each couple ended up in the final order.

Final placements and the winners

• 5th place: Whitney Adebayo and Yamen Sanders
• 4th place: Lucinda Strafford and Sean Stone
• 3rd place: Leanne Amaning and Scott van-der-Sluis
• 2nd place: Millie Court and Zac Woodworth
• 1st place (winners): Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davies

Samie and Ciaran were crowned the winners of Love Island: All Stars Season 3. The final five couples who featured in that public vote were Millie Court and Zac Woodworth; Whitney Adebayo and Yamen Sanders; Leanne Amaning and Scott van-der-Sluis; Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davies; and Lucinda Strafford and Sean Stone. The season also introduced a Villa USA element with All-Star entrants from Love Island USA; Yamen and Zac were the Villa USA entrants who reached the final.

Post-villa catch-ups, fallouts and ongoing connections

Former Islanders appeared to catch up during the finale episode, and a mix of reconciliation and tension emerged. A notable fallout involved Curtis Pritchard and Kyra Lizama: Curtis posted a video on Valentine’s Day saying he was looking for love, which surprised Kyra because they were still talking after the villa; Kyra said she felt disrespected and this seemed to confirm there was no future between them. Other pairings signalled more stability or continued contact: Jessy Potts and Tommy Bradley said things were flowing; Helena Ford and Carrington Rodriguez said they would work on their relationship and Carrington said he would visit the UK soon; Imani Ayan Wheeler and Konnor Ewudzi said they were FaceTiming daily and open to a long-distance relationship; Sher Suarez and Jack Keating wanted to continue getting to know each other.

• Key takeaways:
  • The public vote and the £50, 000 prize are the immediate material stakes shifting how finalists plan next steps.
  • Villa USA entrants (notably Yamen and Zac) altered the final mix and will have separate attention from day-one finalists.
  • Post-villa comments — from continued FaceTiming to a Valentine’s Day video causing friction — are likely to shape social-media narratives in the short term.
  • The show’s winter run of couplings, dumpings and bombshells left several relationships in a tentatively public state rather than secure commitments.

Predictions, a 'leak' and a tarot reading ahead of the live finale

In the hours before the live final there were claims that the winners had been 'leaked. ' A celebrity astrologer, Inbaal Honigman, offered a tarot reading predicting which couple might take the crown and painted a practical, not passionate, picture of the final five. The tarot reading showed no romantic Cups cards; instead every card for the final five fell into Pentacles (also called Disks) or Swords. Pentacles/Disks were framed as signalling practicality, stability and material matters; Swords were linked to overthinking and suspicion. The reading named Scott and Leanne as the pair most aligned with the Princess of Disks (a grounded, family-oriented connection) and tipped Millie and Zac as likely runners-up, with the 8 of Disks suggesting a late push in the public vote and the possibility that their relationship could survive outside the villa. With the live final imminent, viewers were left to see whether those predictions matched the public outcome.

What’s easy to miss is how much the introduction of Villa USA contestants shifted the final calculus: entrants from the other franchise both broadened the audience conversation and altered how day-one islanders were compared on the night. The real question now is how each couple turns that finale exposure into sustained momentum or private stability in the weeks ahead.
