Love Island: All Stars fans were confused to see a married star returning to the villa. Long time Love Island fans will be well aware that season three contestant Marcel Somerville - who used to sing as part of the hip hop group Blazin' Squad - has enjoyed a huge relationship since he left the villa the first time back in 2017. While his reality show romance with Gabby Allen, 32 - who is also back for the 2025 All Stars season - did not last, he later found love with Rebecca Vieira, 29.
The pair started dating in 2020, tied-the-knot in 2022 and are proud parents to three-year-old son Roman. But two years into the marriage, Marcel and Rebecca announced that their romance was over and they were filing for divorce. The update has escaped some fans who were confused to see Marcel on Love Island when he is still, technically, a married man. One fan on X wrote: "I can’t believe this 40 year old married man is on #LoveIsland." Another asked why verified hunk Scott Thomas was back on the show - before adding: "As for Marcel isn’t this guy still married?".
Another fan was desperate to know why the Blazin' Squad star was back in the villa, writing: "Wanting to know why Marcel is there #LoveIsland." Others were shocked to see the star back, with one writing: "Weird but just think about it … Marcel will be 50 in like 11 years and he’s come back to love island #LoveIsland.".
During the opening episode of the season, Marcel explained that he is currently going through his divorce and that he was back on the show in the hope of finding a new relationship that can last. And during the episode, there was some friction between Marcel and Gabby who were shocked to see each other back in the villa.
