Love Island All Stars finalists revealed after brutal dumping and tarot 'leak'
The live Love Island All Stars finale drew to a close amid last-minute dumping and a celebrity astrologer’s prediction that Scott and Leanne would be crowned — a forecast that landed alongside heavy betting and fan reaction as viewers prepared for the public vote.
Love Island All Stars finalists and last-minute dumping
The curtain on the third series fell with six couples still standing: Lucinda and Sean, Samie and Ciaran, Leanne and Scott, Harrison and Belle, Millie and Zac, and Whitney and Yamen. Just days before the grand event, ex-Islanders Shaq, Curtis, Kyra, Jack and Imani returned to the villa to decide which remaining couple was least compatible; their intervention led to Jessy and Tommy being dumped from the show.
Finale broadcast and the prize on the line
The finale aired Monday, February 23, 2026, at 9 p. m. on ITV2 and ITVX, hosted by Maya Jama from the South African villa, with the couples competing for the £50, 000 prize. One pre-finale piece said the top five couples would star in the ITV finale tonight, a detail that differs from the six-couple lineup listed above.
Astrologer’s tarot reading 'leaks' a winner
Celebrity astrologer Inbaal Honigman, speaking for OLBG, used Tarot to predict the outcome and said the cards pointed away from romance: no Cups cards appeared, and every card for the final couples was either a Pentacles (Disks) card or a Swords card. Inbaal said, “The Tarot cards predict more heartache than wedding cake, ” and added, “Every single card that comes up for the final five couples is either a Pentacles card or a Swords card. ”
Her reading singled out Scott and Leanne as the likely winners. The Princess of Disks, Inbaal said, indicates a grounded, family-oriented connection built on comfort and familiarity: “It speaks of comfort and nature. They genuinely care for each other, although this bond is viewed in the Tarot as more of a family bond and not really passionate. ” Millie and Zac (spelled 'Zack' in one item of the provided context) were tipped as runners-up; the 8 of Disks suggested a late public-vote push, and Inbaal said, “It is a card of growth and it says that the couple are learning to become more balanced with each other, ” adding, “They are predicted to come second, but more importantly, their relationship could survive in the wild for a while. ”
Villa USA twist, American arrivals and who lasted
The series featured returning favourites and, for the first time, stars from the US version under a Villa USA twist. Most of the American participants were voted off before the finale, with only Millie’s partner Zac and Whitney’s partner Yamen still standing as the final approached.
Betting markets, fan reaction and villa anecdotes
Betting markets were active in the run-up: Oddschecker and William Hill listed Lucinda and Sean as favourites, with odds as short as 2/1, and Millie and Zac were cited as close behind. Bookmakers including Betfair, William Hill and bet365 rolled out special offers, sign-up bonuses and free bets. Social media reaction ranged from a fan writing, “Would love Belle to win just to see the look on Sean and Lucinda’s faces, ” to another posting, “Sammie and Ciaran or Millie and Zac to win, please not Lucinda and Sean. ”
Former contestant Luca Bish reflected on his 2025 experience and recalled a noisy cricket in the villa that forced castmates to use earplugs; he said the crew tried to find it and had people coming in with ladders. Luca also weighed in on the Villa USA twist but his comment is unclear in the provided context.
With winners unconfirmed in the provided context, the live ITV final that aired Monday, February 23, 2026, at 9 p. m. on ITV2 and ITVX will be the event that settles whether the Tarot prediction, the bookmakers or the public vote determined the champion.
