IT’S been six years since they fell head over heels for each other on season three of Love Island.
In tonight’s explosive launch of Love Island All Stars 2025, Gabby Allen’ came face to face with Marcel Somerville.
Gabby rocked up to the villa first with 2024 contestant Ronnie Vint.
She looked incredible in a sequinned bikini, which she’d accessoried with chunky gold jewellery.
“Hi everybody! How are we?” she beamed before greeting the other girls.
Later in the episode, Maya Jama gathered the first batch of returning contestants on the sofas before shouting: “Who have we got here?! Welcome!”
“Oh my god,” Gabby exclaimed as Blazin’ Squad’s Marcel swanned into the villa with Elma Pazar.
Maya welcomed them and they came over to meet the rest of the group.
The girls stepped up and made sure Gabby was okay after the shock arrival, with Elma highlighting, “Wait, Gabby, he cheated on you, didn’t he?”
Gabby sheepishly nodded her head when she was asked if “she was ok” by Kaz Crossley.
Marcel and Gabby were a fan-favourite in 2017 and they made it all the way to the final but but they split a year later after she accused him of cheating.
Online fitness coach Gabby recently revealed that she hadn’t spoken to Marcel since their split in 2018.
Gabby told The Sun: “I haven’t seen him for six years, so I don’t know how I’m going to feel when I see him.
“It was a big betrayal of trust. Even though I’m over it now, it was something that happened.”
Gabby insisted there are “no hard feelings” on her part and is hoping that she and Marcel can build a friendship in the villa.
She continued: “I’d actually like to have a conversation with him and put it behind us and have some sort of friendship.
“We did go out with each other for a year and we know each other well and we had an experience with each other last time.
“So there’s no reason we shouldn’t take the positives from it and hopefully be mates of some sort.”
It’s been a rocky year for the 39-year-old after he walked out on wife Rebecca Vieira, 29, when she was allegedly caught ‘cheating’ on him with a famous US rapper.
Marcel and Rebecca, who boasts over 500,000 followers on Instagram, started dating in 2019.
The couple share a son, Roman, who they welcomed back in 2021 and a little over a year later they tied the knot.
Things were going well for the couple until January 2024 when Rebecca was caught being ‘unfaithful’ to the reality TV star with rapper Slim Jxmmi.
The mother of Slim’s child, KD, had claimed that Rebecca had sent “intimate messages” to her child’s father.
KD, took to her social media platforms to share what she had uncovered – even tagging Rebecca and Marcel in the posts for them to see.
