Blonde bombshells Molly, 29, and Tom, 24, have been bookies’ favourite to win since they first coupled up two weeks ago.

But it’s been the sizzling dynamic between exes Molly and Callum, who split in September after three years together and had no idea each other had been cast on the ITV show, that has been one of the special series’ major talking points.

Viewers became obsessed with the idea they might rekindle in the TV villa, where they first met on the 2020 series.

Some 69 per cent of The Sun’s readers named blonde bombshell Molly their favourite girl in this series, whilst 60 per cent chose Callum as their favourite boy.

Only seven per cent chose Tom as their top lad.

When asked ‘Do you want to see Molly and Cal get back together?’, 66 per cent of Sun readers answered ‘Yes, they’re meant to be!’.

Only 11 per cent said no, whilst 23 per cent declared there was ‘unfinished business’.

Of viewers’ obsession she might reunite with Callum, Molly said: “I just don’t understand what’s giving that impression because we don’t even really speak!

“It’s nice to see Callum so happy and I’m obviously happy with Tom.”

Of Tom, Molly gushed: “It was all meant to be. I wouldn’t entertain it if I didn’t see this being something serious on the outside.”

Tom said: “I genuinely see you being my girlfriend.”

Sophie Piper, who is the younger sister of This Morning’s Rochelle Humes, and series one Islander Josh Ritchie, came third.

The All Stars series was billed as a celebration of Love Island’s ten series on air and gathered some of the most popular Islanders from over the last nine years.
