Gabby Allen and Casey O’Gorman were crowned the winners of Love Island: All Stars 2025 on Monday night.
However, Gabby, 33, was left shocked to discover that a £50,000 cash prize was involved as part of the winning deal on the All Stars edition of the programme.
Though host Maya Jama told the Islanders at the beginning of the show that they were in the chance of winning the huge sum, Gabby said she had no idea.
Amy Hart, 32, asked her and Casey on the Love Island: The Morning After podcast: ‘You’re about to have a little windfall into your bank. £50,000 between you, £25,000 each. What are you going to spend it on?’
However, appearing shocked, Gabby replied: ‘You know, I didn’t even know that was a thing?’
Amy laughed and said: ‘Did you not?’ as Gabby responded: ‘Until just now, I didn’t even know that that’s what you won.’
Gabby Allen and Casey O’Gorman were recently crowned the winners of Love Island: All Stars 2025
However, Gabby, 33, revealed to host Amy Hart, 32, on the Love Island: The Morning After podcast on Tuesday that she didn’t know a £50,000 cash prize would be involved
Amy joked: ‘Do they ask you for your bank details? “Sorry we just need to transfer you”, “Have you got your sort code please?”
Meanwhile, Casey quipped: ‘Yeah literally that – and it will come in a week.’
It is standard that the winners of Love Island take home a £50,000 cash prize but Gabby admitted she didn’t think the Islanders returning for the All Stars version would.
She confessed: ‘It was only tonight that I heard because I didn’t think on All Stars that you actually got winnings.’
Nodding his head, Casey leaned towards Gabby saying: ‘Bonus,’ and Gabby appeared ecstatic as she said: ‘I know! Bonus to the bonus.’
Gabby and Casey then revealed exactly how they plan to spend their winnings as they will be jetting off on a luxurious holiday to the Maldives together.
Gabby and Casey were announced as the winners of the second season of Love Island: All Stars on Monday night.
The couple had flown under the radar in the leadup to the finale, with bookmakers never placing them as favourites to clinch the £50,000 prize.
Amy kicked off the interview by asking the couple: ‘You’re about to have a little windfall into your bank. 50 grand between you, 25 grand each. What are you going to spend it on?’
Appearing shocked, Gabby replied: ‘You know, I didn’t even know that was a thing?’
Nonetheless, they stormed to victory during the live final – pipping longtime frontrunners Luca Bish and Grace Jackson to the post while Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard finished in third.
Some even questioned if the result was rigged, with Gabby and Casey having been devoid of public sentiment online – SlotsCalendar’s data revealed that only six percent of tweets about the couple, since they paired up, had been positive.
While social media users were baffled at the result, it has resulted in bookmakers paying out thousands, because a third of the stakes were placed on the underdogs.
William Hill spokesperson Lee Phelps told MailOnline: ‘Gabby and Casey’s Love Island All Stars victory last night may have appeared a shock on paper, but the result ended up being a big loser for us, with the couple accounting for over a third (35 percent) of stakes throughout the series.
‘While the pair started out as an unlikely 10/1 towards the end of January, our punters appeared to have their heads turned in early February and their price dropped to as low as 4/7 at one point – the shortest odds offered at any stage of the series.
‘Gabby and Casey entered last night’s finale as 6/4 second favourites but proved to be the real bombshells of the series, stealing the crown from Luca and Grace (1/2).’
Speaking to MailOnline, FruitySlots.com’s Jamie Rosen added: ‘Casey and Gabby’s victory in Love Island All Stars 2025 has taken the nation by surprise, and it’s safe to say that the bookies also did not see this coming.’
‘As the ultimate underdogs at 4/1, they defied the odds and caused a huge upset to get their hands on the £50,000 cash prize and prove that anything can happen in the world of reality TV.’
Love Island: All Stars viewers were left in shock on Monday night when underdogs Gabby and Casey O’Gorman were announced as the winners of season two
For weeks, Luca Bish, 25, and Grace Jackson, 26, had been the bookies’ frontrunners to win the show – garnering a strong online fanbase
‘The bookies had all but written them off, with reality TV betting experts making Luca Bish and Grace Jackson the hot favourites to win at odds of 11/10, making them clear favourites heading into the highly-anticipated final.
‘But what could have led to this outcome? It was clear that Casey and Gabby’s journey, chemistry, and authenticity struck a chord with viewers across the country, making it third time lucky for Casey, as he made his third appearance as an Islander on the show.
‘The bookies will be left facing a big payout to anyone who had the foresight and saw this shock result coming. The odds were stacked against Casey and Gabby for most of the season meaning their supporters will have won thousands at the bookies’ expense.
‘It also highlights just how unpredictable the outcome of Love Island can be, and could impact future betting trends for reality TV shows, where the experts calculating the odds will think twice before writing anyone off as a complete underdog.
‘Casey and Gabby’s win is a reminder that in the Love Island villa, love and authenticity always have a place at the top, no matter what the odds say.’
For weeks, season eight’s Luca, 25, and season 11 star Grace, 26, had been the bookies’ frontrunners to win the show – garnering a strong online fanbase.
Yet the tide turned on the couple in the crucial few days building up to the final after they were ‘sabotaged’ by former Islanders.
During Sunday night’s show, the axed stars returned to the villa to decide which couple would be dumped before the final.
The tide turned on Luca and Grace when former Islander Olivia Hawkins claimed to have seen ‘secret messages’ proving Grace was only after a fake relationship
Amid their deliberations, Olivia Hawkins set the cat among the pigeons as she claimed to have seen ‘secret messages’ proving Grace was only after a fake relationship.
In a shock outburst, she announced: ‘So I’ve seen text messages of Grace just saying to someone that she’ll do whatever it takes to win the show this time from someone back home.’
A horrified Grace denied it immediately and pleaded with Luca: ‘Baby, that is absolutely not true. I do not care about winning this show.’
Yet tensions continued as Samie Elishi, who competed with Grace for Luca’s affections, also claimed to have seen the infamous messages.
Grace fumed: ‘On my life, I have never written that sentence in my life. It’s b******t, and someone’s forged that, that’s not true. I am gobsmacked.’
Olivia’s rival Harriet Blackmore was quick to chime in and told Grace: ‘She probably made it up babe, like she did with Ronnie.’
‘Liv’s probably texted herself and used it as an answer. Babe, we all know you wouldn’t do that,’ she added.
Following the episode, alleged screengrabs of the conversation began to circulate online but were not verified.
