In a video posted to her Instagram stories, Claudia, 28, could be seen wading through a crowd of Samie and Tom's close friends and family to get to the front. Upon seeing her, Samie, 22, screamed in shock and joy, as Tom, 23, clapped his hands to his mouth and said: "No way!" As Claudia burst through the crowd, she and Samie shared an elated hug, before she also extended her arms to Tom, who said incredulously: "You said you weren't coming!" as Claudia laughed mischievously.

Love Island stars Tom Clare and Samie Elishi have been getting to know each other outside of villa life - with one of their first stops being Tom’s football club.The star, 23, got special permission to temporarily leave his club Macclesfield FC, where he plays as a forward, mid-season in order to enter the South African villa.Two months later, Tom is now back on his home pitch, this time with his new love Samie, 23, by his side, as the couple test their relationship outside the confines of the ITV reality show.The pair took to Instagram to share photos and videos of their day as they sat in the stands and watched a training session. Tom took Samie on a tour of the grounds and they later posed for a sweet photo together, with Samie saying how much she’d loved seeing her beau at his day job.

It's barely been 24 hours since the winners of Winter Love Island 2023 were announced by the final voting figures are in - and it appears Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan were always going to be crowned the winners of the ninth series, but only the second-ever winter run.

Love Island's Olivia Hawkins has been seen for the first time since her ex from the show, Kai Fagan, won with his new partner, Sanam Harrinanan. Olivia, who was left fuming when Kai decided to recouple with Sanam in Casa Amor, looked unfazed by their win as she beamed following a late night of partying for the Love Island final in the UK, although the actual final was filmed in South Africa.The 27 year old beamed as she looked fresh-faced despite the late night in a full face of makeup with bronzed cheeks and a slick of gloss, whilst her hair was slicked back into her trademark high ponytail.

Another season of Love Island is set to draw to a close on 13 January, with the 2023 winter series coming to an end after a long eight weeks. Ron Hall and Lana Jenkins, Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan, Tom Clare and Samie Elishi and Tanya Manhenga and Shaq Muhammad all made it to the final, with the winning couple set to be announced live in South Africa by host Maya Jama.

It's been two long months for some of us as we've battled through the coldest and darkest nights of the year - or so we hope!

The grand finale of Winter Love Island 2023 is set to take place this evening and host Maya Jama has been busy getting prepared in South Africa. Maya, 28, will reveal whether Ron Hall and Lana Jenkins, Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan, Tom Clare and Samie Elishi or Tanya Manhenga and Shaq Muhammad are the winning couple of this year's series on Monday 13 January live from Cape Town.

Love Island fans have cheekily suggested a new pair on the show have 'more chemistry than one of the winter series' final couples and have also spotted a potential future islander in the penultimate episode. The current run of the ITV2 dating show will come to an end on Monday night (March 13).

They have been dedicating their viewing time to the show for the last two months but some Love Island fans have said they refuse to watch the final following the last dumping of the winter series. The South African villa has seen plenty of arrivals and exits, arguments and love-ins after the past several weeks but it's all set to come to an end.

Love Island star Lana Jenkins' mum has issued a stern warning to Lana's beau Ron Hall, ahead of meeting him face-to-face in the Love Island villa.The meet-the-parents episode is one of Love Islands most iconic parts, as the Islanders near the final, and their parents, families and friends enter the villa to meet their partners. The Islanders' loved-ones have flown out all the way to South Africa, which is where the winter season is filmed, rather than Majorca, where the show is filmed in summer. Lana's mum Rachel, 50, a script advisor on Hollyoaks, will be seeing her daughter in the flesh for the first time in eight weeks, whilst she will also get the opportunity to meet Ron, 25.

Love Island fans are now just two sleeps away from the final episode, but one couple's time in the villa will be cut short before then. In Friday's instalment on ITV2, Will Young and Jessie Wynter, Ron Hall and Lana Jenkins, and Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan were informed that they'd landed in the bottom three of the cast's vote for compatibility, meaning their dreams of snatching the £50,000 cash prize were in danger. Now, a source has told The Sun that it's a fan-favourite couple who are given the boot by the public on Sunday evening.

Love Island star Casey O'Gorman has sparked rumours of a feud between him and a handful of his co-stars after failing to follow them on Instagram. Days after Casey, 26, who was recently dumped from the South African villa alongside bombshell Rosie Seabrook, 24, was given his phone back, the star followed his love interest Rosie as well as contestants Tom Clare, Will Young, Olivia Hawkins and former flame Claudia Fogarty.The star also followed Casa Amor bombshells Spencer Wilks, Ellie Spence, Keanan Brand, Maxwell Samuda and Jordan Odofin.

Love Island fans are convinced Tom Clare and Samie Elishi will be scooping next week’s crown as the winners of the show, after they spotted a clue during Thursday night’s episode. With the finish line now in sight, the remaining 10 islanders were sent off on their final dates of the series, with no expense spared for the luxury experiences.

With Love Island now in it’s final few days and the finish line firmly in sight, the loved up couples hoping to take home this year’s coveted cash prize have just one date left to prove their romance is for real. From romantic picnics to fairytale meals, no expense has been spared on the final outing for our favourite Islanders, with the date each couple has been assigned, even rumoured to hint at their future compatibility together.

Love Island fans think they've worked out which couple will win the show, based on who goes on the most extravagant final dates. The show's finale will take place next week, with host Maya Jama strutting into the gorgeous South African villa for the final time this year to crown the winners.

Love Island star Claudia Fogarty seems to be settling into everyday life after leaving the South African villa alongside Keanan Brand, Olivia Hawkins and Maxwell Samuda. And after being spotted out and about with Keanan, 24, following their exit, Claudia, 28, was pictured on a family outing with her mum, sister Danielle and famous dad Carl Fogarty in Manchester. As the four of them headed to the Italian restaurant Rosso, Claudia was seen wearing a black top with matching trousers and a pair of trainers.

The first look at tonight's Love Island has seen the couples head out on their elaborate final dates as the final approaches. Ron Hall and Lana Jenkins, who recently became official, are the first couple to be whisked out of the Villa for their epic final date which sees them treated to a magical breakfast while floating on water.They're also treated to a spine-tingling performance from a South African choir.

In a Love Island first, this year's hopefuls will get to vote for the least compatible couple while on dates, leaving the couples with the most amount of votes at risk of being dumped. As the South African villa fast approaches its finale, with host Maya Jama set to arrive on the scene next week and crown a winner, the competition is starting to heat up.

The South African Love Island villa is set to be rocked on Friday as Shaq Muhammad makes an enormous claim about Ron Hall’s relationship with Lana Jenkins. Besides a few heated arguments once in a blue moon, the first winter version of the show since the pandemic has been relatively chilled out.That all changed after Casa Amor, as arguments seemed to pop up, including Olivia Hawkins and Maxwell Samuda slating Jessie Wynter, Tom Clare losing his mind during sports day, and Casey O’Gorman finding himself in the hot seat over his treatment of Claudia Fogarty.

Claudia Fogarty tells Casey O’Gorman that she feels disrespected during Wednesday night’s episode of Love Island following the former’s kiss with bombshell Rosie Seabrook.The South African Love Island villa has been rocked in recent episodes since the arrival of Rosie, who immediately set her sight’s on Casey and chose him to couple up with. While Casey initially said he was trapped between gravitating towards Rosie and his “going strong” relationship with Claudia, the financial advisor eventually chose the former and sent the villa into chaos.Tensions only grew from there, and soon enough, Jessie Wynter challenged Casey in a strange confrontation in Tuesday’s episode, with Casey later telling her to “get a life.” Soon enough, islanders like Olivia Hawkins, Maxwell Samuda and Lana Jenkins were discussing their feelings towards Jessie, branding her “fake” in her relationship with Will Young.
