Earlier in the year, viewers saw an star-studded cast of former islanders enter the glamorous South African villa for the first ever Love Island: All Stars, which had the likes of Sophie Piper, Hannah Elizabeth and Liberty Poole all take part.

But now, Love Island 2024 has come to an end and Ayo and Jess, Nicole and Ciara, Josh and Mimii and Matilda and Sean are all in the running and there are less than 12 hours to go to cast your vote!

As we prepare for another season of Love Island coming to an end, here's everything you need to know about all the previous Love Island winners, including their current relationship status.

It sure has been one rollercoaster journey for summer 2023 winners Sammy and Jess. Despite coming in as a bombshell who took out Molly, Ella T and Jess on poolside dates, Sammy and Jess clearly had a spark from their first meeting.

But Sammy had a case of wandering eye that saw him and Jess come to fiery blows more than once in the villa. The couple were told they couldn't recouple with one another and newly single, Sammy recoupled with bombshell Mal, while Jess tried things with best friend Mitchel.

Despite their differences and turning heads (on Sammy's part), Jess arrived back in to the villa from Casa Amor single and it showed Sammy that he wanted to be with her, rather than Amber. Since then, the pair quickly became the villa's first boyfriend and girlfriend, with Sammy declaring his love for Jess in his final declaration of love in the final.

Sadly, the pair were unable to make their romance work outside of the villa, and split up mere months after the show's end.

The 2023 winter Love Island final saw the show’s host Maya Jama announce that Sanam and Kai were this year's winning couple.

Before their win, Sanam accidentally revealed she is in love with Kai, while Kai told viewers to “watch this space” about asking Sanam to be his girlfriend in the outside world.

It wasn’t all plain-sailing for the pair, however, with both contestants' heads turning during the infamous Casa Amor segment, but things seem to be going from strength to strength for the pair.

Appearing on this year's Aftersun, they confirmed they moved in with each other and have also launched a joint YouTube channel, The Kai and Sanam Show.

As of 2024, the pair are now engaged!

Posting a carousel of photos to Instagram, Kai captioned the post: "Introducing the next Mrs Fagan. Beautiful, caring, loving and smart are just some of the words that describe you.

"I love loving you, I love you and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you."

The 2022 hugely exciting Love Island finale saw Ekin-Su and Davide emerge as the winners after the public watched their whirlwind romance unfold.

Since the show, the pair appeared in their very own reality TV show, titled Ekin-Su & Davide: Homecomings, which saw them travelling back to their home countries, as well as Ekin-Su taking part on season 15 of Dancing on Ice.

But their love story has continued to have twist and turns since leaving the villa. After a brief break-up last summer, the pair reconciled on a romantic trip to Turkey, but have since broken up.

In January 2024, the pair shared the news of their split on their respective Instagram stories.

Ekin-Su wrote: "The last 18 months have been a rollercoaster of ups and downs, just like every relationship. Davide and I both wanted to make this work as we cared deeply for each other.

"Unfortunately I have recently made the decision to end our relationship and to go our separate ways."

The actress went on to say she hopes their privacy "will be respected", noting she "enjoyed" their "time together and will cherish the memories" they made.

Shortly after her statement, Davide wrote that it was a "joint decision" to end their relationship.

"I agree, it was a beautiful story even with its ups and downs, like all couples. I loved every moment, from the first time I knew her in the villa until life outside," he wrote.

"I really believed in us and saw a future for us. But sometimes in life people need to grow apart. Is just the direction of life. I will treasure our moments forever."

Liam and Millie emerged as the 2021 champions of Love Island, beating Chloe Burrows and Toby Aromolaran, as well as Faye Winter and Teddy Soares, to that £50,000 prize money.

Unfortunately, the couple broke up in July 2022, with Millie sharing the news in an Instagram post and telling her followers that it was "a tough decision" but that they were "both ready for new chapters".

However, the pair are now back together and share photos and videos of each other on their various social media channels.

Paige and Finn, the first ever winners of winter Love Island, stayed together for three years after being crowned the 2020 series champions, spending lockdown together and later moving into a flat in Manchester, however they reportedly called time on their relationship in April 2023.

"Paige and Finn had a really good run, but they are still super young and decided it wasn’t forever in the end," a source told The Sun.

Amber Gill and Greg O'Shea – Season 5 (2019)

Relationship status: Separated

If you were invested in Amber and Greg going the distance then you probably were not too thrilled to learn that they broke up only a few weeks after leaving the villa behind them – so it wasn't true love after all.

Individually though, things have been going pretty well for them. Greg has gone back to his career playing Rugby while Amber has become quite the name on social media, having become an influencer who has amassed over two million followers.

Both have gone to be in separate relationships, moving on with their lives since Love Island.

Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer – Season 4 (2018)

Relationship status: Separated

Ah, Jack and Dani – we thought they were meant to be but alas, the relationship did not last and Jack missed out on the golden opportunity of having Danny Dyer as a father-in-law. They did try to make it work, even living together and buying a puppy, but it fell apart after six months.

Since then, Jack has had a child named Blossom while Dani has been edging her way into the presenting world – and had a cameo in EastEnders alongside her dad where she played his cab driver. She is mum to a boy called Santiago and welcomed twin daughters, Star and Summer, in May 2023.

As of July 2024, Dani is now engaged to footballer Jarrod Bowen, whom she shares the twins with. Jack is currently in a relationship with TOWIE star Chloe Brockett and in May 2024, they revealed they were moving in together!

Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies – Season 3 (2017)

Relationship status: Separated

Kem and Amber's relationship did not last long after they left the villa and they broke up around six months later. Professionally though, they are the most successful couple to emerge from the show. Kem has become a well-known face in the UK through his stints on shows like Dancing on Ice and he pops up semi-regularly as a guest on This Morning.

As for Amber, she has seen her star rise on the stage when she was cast in the musical 9 to 5 and more recently, she donned her skates and also took part on Dancing on Ice. So while their love may not have gone the distance, they will certainly be pleased that they made the decision to join the show in 2017.

Cara De la Hoyde and Nathan Massey – Season 2 (2016)

Relationship status: Married

Cara and Nathan may have separated briefly not long after they won the show in 2016 but Cara discovered she was pregnant and the baby brought them back together. They named him Freddie and the addition of a child has seen them remain together to this day – well done, Freddie!

And they seem to be happier than ever now. They had their second baby, daughter Delilah, in 2020. It is nice to see that Love Island can see a couple stay together, even if it is a rarity.

Jessica Hayes and Max Morley – Season 1 (2015)

Relationship status: Separated

Jess and Max were the first winners of the revamped show in 2015 – there was a two-season celebrity version that aired first – and while it would be nice to say that the original winners were still together, sadly we can't as they split up a mere six weeks after leaving the villa behind them.

Since then, Max has got into travelling and has visited various places around the world, while Jess found love with Dan Lawry and they have gone onto have a child together, Presley. So while the pair did not stay together, at least they have both gone on to good things!
