Love Island All Stars has been hit by a nasty stomach illness affecting both contestants and crew in the South African villa, according to reports. The bug, which causes diarrhoea, has been spreading rapidly among the cast and production team just two weeks into the series.
A source told The Sun: 'Love Island might look very sexy on the television but behind the scenes there has been a bug going around. As well as rushing to the Beach Hut for a chat, the islanders have also been dashing off to use the loo.' The insider added that the illness has been 'pretty rough' for some, including those behind the camera.
Despite the outbreak, the contestants have continued grafting. Samie Elishi, a recent arrival, has expressed interest in semi-professional footballer Tom Clare, though she admitted others are also in the running. Meanwhile, Tom shared a secret kiss with Ellie Spence on the terrace, keeping it from the other boys.
Olivia Hawkins, who previously coupled with Tom, has been left frustrated, telling Tanya: 'I'll only go back to him if he puts an effort in.' Fans have mocked her reaction on social media, with one writing: 'Watching Olivia be delusional about Tom... is really making me cackle.'
