Love Island All Stars couple Olivia Hawkins and Marcel Somerville have split just days after leaving the villa.

The pair, who were axed from the South Africa villa in a shock double dumping last month, have gone their separate ways and have decided to just stay friends after failing to find a romantic connection. 

A source confirmed to MailOnline: 'Liv and Marcel have made the decision to part ways. 

'They've chosen to go in separate directions, but there's no hard feelings. 

'While they do share some fond memories together from their short stint on Love Island, they've built a great bond but have decided they're better off as friends and are both looking forward to the next chapters in their lives.'

Olivia, 29, and Marcel, 39, were votes the least compatible couple by viewers, after landing in the bottom with Ronnie Vint and Elma Pazar, and Nas Majeed and Catherine Agbaje earlier in the series. 




Love Island: All Stars couple Olivia Hawkins and Marcel Somerville have 'SPLIT just days after leaving villa' following their shock dumping





The pair, who were axed from the South Africa villa in a shock double dumping last month, memek have reportedly gone their separate ways and have decided to just stay friends

The departure left the rest of the villa in floods of tears, though Marcel and ex Gabby Allen said they were 'glad' to have patched things up following their bitter split in 2018.

Hinting that she would be open to exploring their connection on the outside, Olivia called Marcel 'the cutest' and they said they were glad to be leaving together. 

Speaking to host Maya Jama after departing the villa, the presenter branded their departure a 'shock exit.' 

Marcel said: 'I feel like we had a really good compatible relationship,' while Olivia added: 'I feel the last two days we got so close.'

Olivia has since blamed her shock dumping on her flirty conversation with fellow islander Luca Bish. 

The star admitted she 'wasn't surprised' to be dumped, placing the blame on the tensions between herself and Luca.

In her post-villa chat, the brunette beauty said: 'When our names got called I actually wasn't that surprised, I did think after the whole chat with Luca that it was a possibility. 

'I think all three couples in the bottom deserved to be there and I just believe that whatever happens, happens and if it was my time to go then it was my time to go.' 




A source said: 'Things just weren't working out, outside the villa, and it was better to end things as friends rather than force anything'

Love Island fans in shock at Ekin-Su and Curtis Pritchard's 'pornographic' heart rate challenge


It comes after the famous heart rate challenge was back during Monday night's episode, and it proved to be the most shocking yet.

A fixture of the ITV2 show since 2018, the challenge sees the villa girls slip into a string of scantily-clad looks to set pulses racing, while the boys hope to do the same by oiling up and stripping off. 

This series there were two stand-out stars with couple Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Curtis Pritchard shocking viewers with their moves. 

As the last girl took the stage to show off her moves and get the boys' hearts racing, Ekin-Su, 30, made an entrance in a revealing red lingerie set.

Ekin-Su made sure to give each boy a moment to remember, but it was when she reached her beau Curtis, 28, that things got extra steamy. The couple proceeded to kiss passionately on the villa floor, in a world of their own as their co-stars screamed.








The heart rate challenge was back on Monday night's Love Island: All Stars , and it proved to be the raciest one yet as Ekin-Su and Curtis got very raunchy









Curtis gave a dazzling dance performance, before things get heated with Ekin-Su. Flipping her upside down with ease, the two mimicked a racy sex act, to the shock of their fellow islanders 







Later, professional dancer Curtis revived his samba outfit from his original series, giving a dazzling dance performance, before things get heated with Ekin-Su. 

Flipping Ekin upside down with ease, the two mimicked a racy sex act, to the shock of their fellow islanders and viewers at home.

'How was ekin su and curtis' heart rate challenges allowed on national tv,' begged one fan on X, formerly known as Twitter.

'Curtis & Ekin are in their own porno at this stage,' agreed another. 

Other outraged comments included:'Bloody hell, all this dry humping between Curtis and Ekin . Jeez!'; 'If Ekin and Curtis end up in the Hideaway, I think we all know what is gonna happen between them'.

'Oh my god not ekin and curtis in the 69 position'; 'do ekin and curtis forget that the whole villa is watching them yet alone their on TV'; 'ekin and curtis need to stop this immediately they're like horny teenagers'.
