The Love Island season finale for series 12 airs tonight (Monday 4 August) and we already have deets on All Stars 2026.
The dating show spin-off series will be on its third season when it returns next year and after the success of the past two seasons, we aren't surprised that the ITV big wigs have decided to keep it going.
However, it has been revealed that the 2026 version of the spin-off show will be slightly different from previous years...
'Returning to scorching South Africa, the third All Stars series will launch in the new year and run for a bumper six weeks instead of five,' the press release reads.
The regular series runs for a whopping eight weeks, whereas, as already established, All Stars is only on for a cool five weeks. Turns out the ITV producers want to up the ante for 2026.
Just imagine if they had done it last series; we could have had another week of Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Elma Pazar shouting at each other across the fire pit.
'Love Island: All Stars has quickly established itself as a stand-alone hit, keeping fans of the show gripped by iconic Islanders from the past ten years returning for another chance to find love,' creative director, Mike Spencer-Hayter declared.
Before you claim that All Stars is not successful at helping former Islanders find The One, may we remind you that two couples from season one are still together and one couple from series two is still going strong.
Molly Smith and Tom Clare, who won All Stars 2024, are still very much an item, and finalists Sophie Piper and Joshua Ritchie continue to keep us (and each other) entertained with hilarious TikToks.
As for this year's couples, Grace Jackson and Luca Bish are just as loved up as ever and who can blame them when they're constantly on holiday together?
'We are very excited about series three and you can expect the twists and turns to continue in All Stars, after an incredible smash hit summer series.'
Who would you like to see return for All Stars 2026?
It better not be Casey O'Gorman, that's all we're saying. Although, he is single again.
