Love Island 2016 star turned Made in Chelsea cast member turned Love Island: All Stars bombshell 2025 Tina Stinnes gave the second series of All Stars a pretty good go, to be fair to her. She stormed the villa on day 5 and got with her arch-rival's ex (we'll get to that) Scott Thomas and stayed with him for several weeks (it was giving equal parts closure and revenge and we rate both of those things).

Of course, then Scott decided he just wasn't feeling the endless cups of tea and head scratches from Tina and walked out of the villa leaving Tina single and eventually dumped.

Love story over right? Perhaps not. On Thursday, the former couple shared some late-night pillow talk via video call and shared the evidence on their socials, leaving all of us befuddled.

Scott captioned the Instagram story post, 'Good to catch up with this one and for her to be as smiley as ever 😁❤️.'

What happened to Tina Stinnes on Love Island: All Stars 2025?

Tina entered the villa on day 5 and chose to take Nas Majeed, Luca Bish and Scott Thomas out on picnic dates. Despite a brief flirt and a kiss with Luca, Tina chose to pursue a connection with her fellow Love Island 2016 co-star Scott soon and their relationship was, erm, lukewarm – on Scott's side, not Tina's. After some soul searching, Scott chose to leave the villa after failing to find a spark with Tina.

New boy Chuggs Wallis then tried it on with Tina and they were coupled up for a few days in the last week of her journey, but she wasn't really open to it after losing Scott – she pied Chuggs at the fire pit and everything. The pair were dumped together on day 29.

Who did Tina Stinnes couple up with on Love Island 2016?

She coupled up with Adam Maxted and Troy Frith while in the villa. She famously set her sights on Scott Thomas, too, much to the dismay of Kady McDermott...

What happened between Tina Stinnes and Kady McDermott?

These girls redefined 'love rivals' all those years ago with the queens majorly falling out over Scott Thomas. No doubt Kady screeching, 'You're a c**t and your dress is SHIT!' at Tina as her and Scott went off for a spa date didn't help, either. Oh, and calling her a 'Made in Chelsea reject' (ironically before she started actually appearing on MIC). Ouch.

Did Tina Stinnes enjoy being on Love Island 2016?

Despite getting nearly three weeks in an all expenses paid luxury villa with some of the hottest men in the country, Tina said her time on Love Island was 'horrible'.

Speaking to The Sun in 2017, she said, 'I can see how people feel, especially when there is no one in there for them.

'It can be really a sh-t, horrible feeling and you can feel really lonely.'

Is Tina Stinnes on Made in Chelsea?

Yes. Remember when Kady called Tina a 'Made in Chelsea reject' in the villa? Well, call it a prophecy but just a year after first appearing on our screens, Tina was in SW3 flirting up a storm with longest-reigning MIC cast member Jamie Laing.

Tina’s main storyline revolved around her flirtations with Jamie and incurring the wrath of his then-girlfriend Frankie Gaff, whom she called 'the most irritating person on social media' in a magazine interview.

Tina actually made her debut in 2014 – two years before her Love Island debut – when she briefly (and we do mean briefly) dated Spencer Matthews. Does this mean that technically Kady was right all along?

Fast forward to the here and now, and Tina made her spectacular return to Made in Chelsea for series 27 and ended up hooking up with one Reza Amiri-Garroussi, which, of course, Ruby Adler had major beef with. This resulted in Reza and Ruby entertaining the idea of giving things another go for the umpteenth time and Tina and Rez calling it a day. Fair. And that's what you missed on Glee.
