The Love Island: All Stars villa was hit by a shock double dumping on Wednesday night, as two fan favourites bid farewell to the show.
Olivia Hawkins and Marcel Somerville were voted the least compatible couple by viewers, after landing in the bottom with Ronnie Vint and Elma Pazar, and Nas Majeed and Catherine Agbaje.
The twist 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 and Marcel were voted the least compatible couple by viewers, after landing in the bottom with Ronnie Vint and Elma Pazar , and Nas Majeed and Catherine Agbaje
Olivia blamed her exit on her flirty exchanges with Luca Bish, and insisted that there would never be anything serious between them.
Grilled on the status of his friendship with Gabby, Marcel insisted that their reunion has provided ‘closure’ for them both, and they can stay on good terms if they ever cross paths in the future.
Wednesday’s episode also ended with the news that Harriett Blackmore and Montel McKenzie would be the latest bombshells to enter the villa.
Harriett determined to confront ex Ronnie about the end of their romance, as well as his secret messages with fellow Islander Olivia Hawkins.
Harriett had previously started a romance with Ronnie during their time in the villa last year, but split in September amid claims that he cheated on her.
Since he entered the All Stars villa, Ronnie admitted to sending co-star Olivia flirty messages despite being in a relationship.
Now, Ronnie is in a couple with Elma but their blossoming romance could be under threat following Harriett’s explosive return.
Discussing her decision to return to the villa, Harriett said: ‘I think that my last time in the Villa was cut too short so I think I deserve a second chance, I’m looking forward to it!’

She added: ‘Explore new connections… but I definitely need to have a conversation with Ronnie though, I think that’s important. I don’t know how I’m going to feel when I see him, I haven’t seen him in months, we last spoke in September.’
Montel departed the Love Island villa after a turbulent romance with Leah Taylor, which saw him stray during his time in Casa Amor, where he enjoyed a kiss with Tink Reading.
Although he and Leah were dumped from the villa as a couple, their romance quickly fizzled out on the outside.
Asked why he’s heading back into the villa, Montel said: ‘I want to find love and Love Island is the best environment to find that.’
‘I think people thought I was a bit boring or not that talkative, but there was just no drama for me.
‘Some people like to talk up when there’s loads of people in the room to be the loudest. I’m not going to compete with someone and speak the loudest. I’m just chill.’
Love Island: All Stars continues on Thursday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
