Love Island All Stars final saw Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman take the crown and now the contestants are back in the real world - Jessie Wynter and Will Young have shared some advice
Love Island All Stars has crowned its winners, and the contestants are now free to navigate the world with their newfound love. But will these relationships stand the test of time?
Former contestants Jessie Wynter and Will Young, a strong couple from 2023, have shared their advice for the new pairings. As the contestants leave the villa, they'll be thrust into a whirlwind of glamorous events and red-carpet appearances. However, Jessie and Will caution them against getting swept up in the excitement too quickly.
Jessie exclusively shared: "I think when they come off they need to just remember that all eyes are on you. When you come into the limelight, a lot of people are paying attention to your relationship and everything that happened in the villa, but I think the most important thing is to put your attention on each other.
"Stop worrying what other people are saying about you and just focus on each other and how you are feeling. I think that's really going to be the best thing for progression." Will, a social media star and Jessie's partner, added: "That's what we did. For the first couple of months, we didn't go to any events, we didn't party, we didn't do anything."
By taking a step back and prioritizing their relationships, Jessie and Will believe the new couples can build a stronger foundation for their love to flourish. "If you want it to work, you have to focus on yourselves outside of the villa, because the relationship you have inside the villa, it's not going to be the same. It's going to be completely different when you leave. And it's just the matter of fact, if you want the relationship to work, you must spend the time around it before, before going out and going crazy."
Jessie weighed in with some sage advice for the Islanders now facing the real world after Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman emerged as winners. The Aussie stunner continued: "You're just going to have to decide as well, do you want these opportunities? Or do you feel confident that the relationship would be worth missing out?"
"Because we didn't do much at the start, but now it's two years on, and Will and I are busier than we've ever been. We didn't get to do much and we missed out on things at the start, but it was all worth it because now we're still doing those things together a few years later."
As the finalists gear up to catapult their careers post-show, the couple dished out another slice of wisdom. Will advised: "If they're not on Snapchat, the biggest advice for Islanders coming out is to get on Snapchat. It is the number one happiest platform, I've definitely experienced that, Jessie has too. I think it's just because Snapchat is the only platform where being imperfect is perfect.
"They just love you being yourself and seeing who you actually are. I've definitely found with the followers and the people that I'm connecting with to have a much bigger and better connection."
Jessie chimed in: "I think the thing that everyone loves about Snapchat, as it's not edited. It's literally in live time, you just whip out the camera, post it as it is, no editing. I think there's a lot more freedom to kind of chat one on one to people. It's really good for Islanders and creators to actually communicate with other people that have just come off the show like themselves, and it really brings in that sense of community."
