We were all very excited when Scott Thomas' Love Island: All Stars promo picture landed on our desks in early January; not only did he look like he was carved from actual marble, but Scott – in our eyes – represented the true definition of All Star Islander.

Memorable time on Love Island the first time around? Yep. Iconic Love Island relationship? Definitely. Famous friends? Sure. Famous family? YES. Aged like fine wine? Hell yes.

Before the Love Island 2016 icon had even entered the All Stars villa – nine years after finding fame on the show – we had Scott down as a finalist, but alas, he cut his own journey short by choosing to walk on day 18.

But why did Scott really leave All Stars? What happened with Tina Stinnes and India Reynolds? And are him and Luca Bish back to being besties after that fight?

Who is Scott Thomas?

It's been a while since Scott was on our screens, so allow us to refresh your memory. He was an OG on series two and coupled up with Kady McDermott.

Scott is a former club promoter turned reality star, PR director and podcaster; he's giving male Edina Monsoon vibes and we are utterly here for his success story. Almost nine years to the day he first walked in the Majorca villa, Scott made his telly comeback on Love Island: All Stars 2025.

He is from Manchester and the accent still melts us.

He was born 11 August 1988, making him 36 years old.

Who was Scott Thomas coupled up with on Love Island: All Stars?

India Reynolds and Tina Stinnes, but they were hardly epic love stories.

The public coupled Scott up with his friend India on day 1 and they pursued the relationship romantically (ish). That soon turned sour when Scott was reunited with bombshell Tina. The pair had originally met on Love Island 2016, but Kady McDermott ensured that connection never happened.

Feeling the spark this time around (well...), Scott and Tina pursued things and the realtionship turned romantic (well...); until Scott decided something was missing with Tina and called things off after a couple of weeks of coupling.

Did Scott Thomas quit Love Island: All Stars 2025?

Yes, but he's hardly the first Islander to ever walk off the show.

Scott wasn't feeling a connection with Tina, which Luca Bish let slip on Vegas Night. Despite his best efforts to try again, Scott eventually called things off with Tina before quitting the villa, following a row with Elma Pazar over his intentions on the show.

Speaking on Love Island's Morning After podcast, Scott revealed, 'I think for me it just got to a point where I couldn't see where I was gonna go romantically.

'I tried my hardest where the connections I had and I was just like, I just don't know where I'm going to go from there, so it was nothing to do with the argument and I just want everybody to know that.'

Are Scott Thomas and Luca Bish still friends?

Yes, in fact, they're a bunch of words beginning with 'B' – bros, brothers, besties...take your pick.

They did have a monumental scrap on Vegas Night, however. Basically, the boys got the hump over several girls – particularly Grace Jackson and Tina – and had a massive row which literally ended in tears and left Scott asking, 'Who are you?'. They made up the next day, though.

When was Scott Thomas originally on Love Island?

Scott took part in Love Island series 2 in 2016. The winners of his series were Cara Delahoyde-Massey and Nathan Massey.
