Love Island’s Molly Smith puts on a leggy display in white mini dress as she joins Gabby Allen at Sabrina Carpenter concert in Manchester

Love Island stars Molly Smith and Gabby Allen looked incredible as they enjoyed a night out in Manchester to watch Sabrina Carpenter at Co-op Live on Thursday. 

The latest series of All Stars came to a dramatic conclusion when Gabby, 33, and Casey O’Gorman, 28, were crowned the winners in a shock victory over long-time frontrunners Grace Jackson and Luca Bish. 

Molly, 30, won the first series with Tom Clare, 25, last year, and the couple still going strong now. 

And as Tom and Casey are well known best friends, it has appeared that their strong bond has had an influence on their girlfriends’ friendship. 

Gabby looked sensational for the evening as she slipped into a brown laced sleeveless top. 

She pair her skimpy top with a pair blue flared trousers which featured a lace design up the thighs.

To accesssorise, the blond beauty toted around her belongings in a brown 90s-inspired handbag. 

Meanwhile, Molly looked ethereal in a white satin corset top which she layered over a mini white ruffled skirt. 

She added inches to her peтιтe frame and slipped into a pair of towering white  stilettos. 

Braving the cold, she flung a cream cape coat over her shoulders and finished her look with a mini white Chanel crossbody bag. 

Lover Island viewers were left in shock in February when Gabby and Casey were announced as the winners of season two. 

The couple bagged the whopping £50,000 prize during the final after beating runner ups Luca and Grace.

Casey finally got his happy ending with blonde bombshell Gabby after appearing on the show three times previously.

The couple had flown under the radar in the leadup to the finale, with bookmakers never placing them as favourites to clinch the £50,000 prize.

Nonetheless, they managed to storm to victory during the live final – pipping longtime frontrunners Luca and Grace to the post while Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Curtis Pritchard finished in third. 

Some even questioned if the result was rigged, with Gabby and Casey having been devoid of public sentiment online – SlotsCalendar’s data revealed that only six percent of tweets about the couple since they paired up had been positive. 

While social media users were baffled at the result, it has resulted in bookmakers paying out thousands, because of a third of the stakes were placed on the underdogs. 

William Hill spokesperson Lee Phelps told MailOnline: ‘Gabby and Casey’s Love Island All Stars victory last night may have appeared a shock on paper, but the result ended up being a big loser for us, with the couple accounting for over a third (35 percent) of stakes throughout the series.’

He continued: ‘While the pair started out as an unlikely 10/1 towards the end of January, our punters appeared to have their heads turned in early February and their price dropped to as low as 4/7 at one point – the shortest odds offered at any stage of the series.

‘Gabby and Casey entered last night’s finale as 6/4 second favourites but proved to be the real bombshells of the series, stealing the crown from Luca and Grace (1/2).’

For weeks, season eight’s Luca, 25, and season 11 star Grace, 26, had been the bookies’ frontrunners to win the show – garnering a strong online fanbase. 

During the final, as Maya interviewed the final two couples, Gabby reflected on making friends with her ex Marcel.

She admitted: ‘I never thought I would be friends with him. I can unblock him on Instagram now, we can be friends.’

And when asked whether he really ‘chases the clout,’ Casey joked: ‘Can we not mention that word ever again please?’

Before Maya revealed the winners, last year’s winners and Casey’s best pal Tom Clare and Molly Smith joined via video call to wish them the best of luck.

Confirming they can’t wait to go on double dates when Casey and Gabby return home, Molly and Tom had nothing but joyful things to say about the new couple.

‘So happy for WINNERS … #GabbyAndCasey They had our votes. Really want this to be a #LoveIsland Happy Ever After!’,

‘You know what… I ain’t even mad at Casey and Gabby winning’,

‘Well done Casey and Gabby. The only couple that didn’t look like they were trying too hard and seemed to have a truly natural connection with each other. All the best. Hope it works out’.
