Love Island All Stars Odds: Luca Bish Early Favourite Amid Olivia Hawkins Link
Love Island: All Stars will return for its second series on Monday night, as iconic islanders from the last 10 years head back to the villa to have another go at finding love.
As well as that, there is a £50,000 prize up for grabs for the top couple.
However, the initial 12 singletons, Gabby Allen, Curtis Pritchard, Ronnie Vint, Olivia Hawkins, Scott Thomas, Catherine Agbaje, Nas Majeed, Kaz Crossley, Luca Bish, India Reynolds, Marcel Somerville and Elma Pazar, will have to battle off the affections of new bombshells throughout the series.
Last year's series has, so far, proved the show can be a successful one for returning contestants, with winners Molly Smith and Tom Clare still together.
Ahead of Monday's launch night episode, betting sites have been busy speculating about who might couple up with who initially and odds have been set for Top Male and Top Female victors.
Bish, Bash, Couple Up
Olivia Hawkins and Luca Bish are the 7/4 favourites to couple up in the series premiere and it could be the fishmonger's first step to victory.
Luca is the early 7/2 frontrunner with William Hill to be this year's Top Man, followed by 4/1 chance Scott Thomas.
Marcel Sommerville isn't far behind at 5/1, followed by Ronnie Vint, who is 6/1 with Bet365.
Love Island All Stars Odds: Initial Couples
Couple | Odds | Probability |
Olivia Hawkins And Luca Bish | 7/4 | 36.4% |
India Reynolds And Scott Thomas | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Elma Pazar And Scott Thomas | 5/2 | 28.6% |
Gabby Allen And Curtis Pritchard | 3/1 | 25% |
Olivia Hawkins And Ronnie Vint | 7/2 | 22.2% |
Elma Pazar And Nas Majeed | 4/1 | 20% |
Catherine Agbaje And Curtis Pritchard | 4/1 | 20% |
Kaz Crossley And Nas Majeed | 9/2 | 18.2% |
India Reynolds And Marcel Somerville | 5/1 | 16.7% |
Gabby Allen And Ronnie Vint | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Kaz Crossley And Luca Bish | 7/1 | 12.5% |
Catherine Agbaje And Marcel Somerville | 8/1 | 11.1% |
Ronnie only took part in the main series last summer, but after failing to find love he's already keen to put things right this winter.
He was involved in several love triangles in the Majorcan villa last time out and he could provide Luca with some competition for Olivia.
It's just 7/2 that Ronnie and Olivia pair up on Monday night, while India Reynolds and Scott are 2/1.
What's more, Gabby is 3/1 to couple up with pro dancer Curtis Pritchard and whoever she does join forces with the bookmakers are expecting her to make a strong start.
Gabby And Kaz On Top
Gabby and Kaz Crossley are the early pacesetters in the Top Woman category. The pair are 7/2 joint favourites to be the last ladies standing, while Catherine and India are 5/1 shots.
However, it could be an all or nothing-type series for Gabby and Kaz - as both are fairly short to quit the series first. Kaz is 2/1 to make an early exit, while Gabby is a 7/2 chance, but Luca is the Evens favourite.
Despite the bookies expecting big things from the Celebrity MasterChef star, some eagle-eyed fans believe he could walk.
Love Island All Stars Odds: First To Quit Series
Contestant | Odds | Probability |
Luca Bish | Evens | 50% |
Kaz Crossley | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Curtis Pritchard | 3/1 | 25% |
Gabby Allen | 7/2 | 28.6% |
Scott Thomas | 4/1 | 20% |
Olivia Hawkins | 9/2 | 18.2% |
Nas Majeed | 5/1 | 16.7% |
Catherine Agbaje | 11/2 | 15.4% |
Elma Pazar | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Ronnie Vint | 7/1 | 12.5% |
India Reynolds | 8/1 | 11.1% |
Marcel Somerville | 10/1 | 9.1% |
His Love Island ex Gemma Owen was previously said to be in talks to take part in this year's All Stars, but she's not expected to now.
What's more, some fans took to Reddit to claim Luca "looked miserable" in an All Stars Speed Dating clip posted on the site.
One commented: "He’s definitely walking."
Look Who Is Jack(son)
If someone does walk early, then it's likely another bombshell will take their place almost immediately.
Love Island bosses have several lined up to appear throughout the series anyway and one is expected to be series eight winner Ekin-Su Culculoglu, who triumphed in the 2022 season with now-ex Davide Sanclimenti.
However, don't expect to see Davide in the villa anytime soon.
A source told The Sun: "Ekin's negotiations to do All Stars took a long time as she really went back and forth on it, but eventually she told bosses she would sign on the dotted line with one major condition - they had to agree not to put Davide in the villa at any point as a bombshell."
Ekin-Su isn't included in the First Bombshell market due to the heavy rumours surrounding her All Stars appearance.

Contestant | Odds | Probability |
Grace Jackson | 11/8 | 42.1% |
Harriett Blackmore | 6/4 | 40% |
Tyrique Hyde | 13/8 | 38.1% |
Lucinda Strafford | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Leanne Amaning | 3/1 | 25% |
Scott van-der-Sluis | 4/1 | 20% |
Paige Thorne | 9/2 | 18.2% |
Tanya Manhenga | 5/1 | 16.7% |
Adam Maxted | 11/2 | 15.4% |
Abi Moores | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Anna Vakili | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Ciaran Davies | 7/1 | 12.5% |
Sam Taylor | 8/1 | 11.1% |
Jacques O'Neill | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Ovie Soko | 12/1 | 7.7% |
Aside from the Celebrity Big Brother star, Grace Jackson is the 11/8 favourite on betting apps to be the first bombshell in the villa.
She was recently romantically linked to Manchester United footballer Marcus Rashford, but they are not thought to be an item.
Ronnie's ex Harriett Blackmore - who, like him, appeared in last summer's series - is just 6/4 to surprise him on All Stars, while it's 13/8 that series 10's Tyrique Hyde returns and 2/1 for Lucinda Strafford to appear at some stage.
Leanne Amaning (3/1), Scott van-der-Sluis (4/1), Paige Thorne (9/2) and Tanya Manhenga (5/1) are all said to have held talks with All Stars bosses, as has 11/2 chance Adam Maxted.
He could become the first-ever Love Islander to appear in two All Stars series, after he spent nine days in the villa in season one.
