ITV Love Island fans convinced Gabby still has feelings for Marcel as exes reunite

Love Island All Stars viewers are abuzz with speculation of a juicy plot twist. The reality TV series made its comeback with former contestants being paired off by audience votes on Monday, 13 January.

Despite a rocky past, Gabby Allen and Marcel Somerville, who were previously an item after their season three appearances, were voted to couple up again. Their history includes a year-long post-show romance that ended sourly due to Marcel's infidelity during a joint holiday.

This unexpected reunion led some fans to wonder if they'd noticed a possible spark re-igniting between the former partners. TV viewers were quick to express their thoughts online as All Stars aired its latest episode on Tuesday (14 January).

Some hinted that Gabby might be warming up to Marcel following their conversation, reports Wales Online.

A viewer remarked: "Gabby seems too happy to be in a couple with an ex that cheated on her on their baecation... #LoveIslandAllStars," while another commented: "PERSONALLY, I think Gabby is letting Marcel off too easily but that's just me."

The prospect of the two repairing their bond was popular with some fans. One person said: "Why am I lowkey rooting for Gabby and Marcel to rekindle?" Another added fuel to the fire, writing: "marcel and gabby are made for each other, y'all are on to something we must get them back together."

"Gabby is still in love #LoveIsland," somebody else said, while another added: "Guys I actually think Gabby and Marcel are gonna get back together #LoveIslandAllStars."

During Tuesday's episode of Love Island All Stars, Gabby and Marcel shared an intimate chat about their feelings. There was a light-hearted moment when Gabby humorously remarked that she "never thought" she'd be sharing a bed with Marcel again, as they grappled with the public's perspective on their relationship.

In another heartfelt scene, Marcel showed vulnerability, telling his former flame: "I feel better... saying the things I should have said then. I'm getting emotional."

Despite these moments of reflection, the couple concluded to keep things friendly going forward, with Gabby reassuring the other female islanders that she has no intention of rekindling romance with her ex, hinting instead at a budding interest towards fellow islander Luca Bish.

Love Island: All Stars airs Sunday to Friday on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm
