UPDATE: Fans of Love Island: All Stars are expressing outrage and threatening to abandon the show after a shocking recoupling ceremony aired on February 4, 2026. Viewers were left reeling when contestant Sher chose to couple up with Scott, a popular contestant previously paired with Leanne.
The episode featured the first recoupling since the arrival of six American bombshells: Sher Suarez, Carrington Rodriguez, Yamen Sanders, Imani Wheeler, Kyra Lizama, and Zac Woodworth. These new arrivals had the privilege of choosing first, leading to a cascade of emotions and tension among the existing cast.
Sher’s decision to pick Scott over Leanne ignited chaos in the villa. Until this pivotal moment, Scott and Leanne had been considered one of the show’s strongest couples. Sher justified her choice in an emotional recoupling speech, stating, “Making this decision is incredibly hard… I think I came to this decision because I do want to get to know this person and see where that goes.”
Leanne’s reaction was explosive; she confronted Sher, calling her a “snake” and declared, “If you can take my man, you can have him.” The fallout left viewers stunned, with many taking to social media to voice their support for Leanne. One viewer tweeted, “I can’t be bothered… had to switch this ish off. My girl Leanne deserves better!”
The emotional turmoil escalated when Leanne confided to her friends, “That was f**** humiliating,” leaving her visibly upset by the firepit. Meanwhile, Jack, who had also been developing a connection with Sher, expressed disbelief at the sudden turn of events.
Despite the backlash against Sher, some fans defended her actions, arguing that she was merely playing the game. One viewer stated, “Sher hasn’t done anything wrong and didn’t deserve those comments round the fire pit at all.” Another added, “Sorry, I don’t get how Sher is a snake. She’s a bombshell, and they aren’t friends.”
As reactions continue to pour in across social media platforms, the future of Love Island: All Stars hangs in the balance. Viewers are eager to see how the dynamics within the villa will shift in the upcoming episodes, airing tomorrow night on ITV2 and ITVX.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as fans grapple with the emotional fallout from this dramatic recoupling.
