WITH the full line-up for Love Island All Stars finally announced, fans are looking forward to seeing some of their favourite lovebirds hit our screens once again.

With controversial characters making a return to the villa – and even one who’s MARRIED – it’s set to be a fiery few weeks down in South Africa.

Curtis and his brother AJ have recently launched investment app Fint[/caption]

Plenty of former Islanders have gone on to secure mega-bucks brand deals and lasting fame with appearances on other TV shows such as Celebrity Big Brother.

Some, however, might end up a bit green-eyed once they hear what their fellow stars have been earning since leaving the villa.

We take a look at the fortunes and financial upsets of everyone hoping to find love once again – as well as their Instagram earnings and the net worth of this year’s biggest stars.

Curtis Pritchard

Net worth: £400k

Insta earnings: £1.8k-2.7k per post

It’s six years since Curtis was looking for love on the island, where he was first coupled up with Amy Hart – only to leave with Irish bombshell Maura Higgins.

The dancer is reported to be worth a comfortable £400,000, thanks to lucrative branding deals and TV appearances – even once splashing out on a £4,000 bottle of limited-edition whiskey. 

A lifelong ballroom and Latin dancer, Curtis worked as a professional dancer on Ireland’s Dancing With The Stars – though he revealed he was struggling for cash when he first started out.

“I had to borrow money from the other dancer to survive, until that first pay cheque came in,” the 29-year-old revealed to the i.

He added: “Love Island kicked off everything. Because I got fat shamed on the show, I got a really lucrative 12-month contract, under six figures, with Weight Watchers.”

Curtis teamed up with brother AJ to be guest choreographers on hit show RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, and became the receptionist for The Greatest Dancer. In 2024, they launched Fint, a new investment app that the brothers have been working on for the last two years.

Curtis also revealed he once invested a couple of thousand pounds into crypto – though called it his worst investment after things didn’t quite work to plan.

Elma Pazar

Coronavirus restrictions left Elma’s beauty business in trouble[/caption]

Essex-based lash technician Elma first shot to fame on the fifth series of Love Island, entering the villa alongside Maura Higgins.

And she’s faced a number of financial ups and downs in the years since – though she’s still managed to bring in some cash thanks to her 434,000 Instagram followers.

Elma returned to our screens in 2022, joining the cast of TOWIE, once again putting her in the limelight and boosting her profile in the eyes of brands.

But Coronavirus restrictions saw her business plunged into trouble – and was left without an income as she was unable to qualify for furlough benefits.

It even prompted her to put out a jokey message to her fans asking them for cash.

Elma posted: “If anyone wants to donate to my bank account to cheer me up, I’ll be happy to send you over my details. No time wasters please. Many thanks kind regards xxx.”

Marcel Somerville

Net worth: £100k

Insta earnings: £1.5k-2.2k per post

Marcel gained fans for his honest and helpful relationship advice – even releasing a book on the subject[/caption]

Marcel is ready for some frank conversations with his ex Gabby, also heading into the villa[/caption]

Series three Love Islander Marcel has already caused a storm with the announcement he’s set to reenter the villa – because he’s still married.

While he’s been separated from his wife due to her sending flirty texts to a pop star, it’s Marcel’s own infidelity that saw him lose out on what could have been a lucrative TV role.

After going on Love Island, where he was coupled up with Gabby Allen – also set to appear on the new All Stars series – it was estimated he could be worth a respectable £100,000.

Known for dishing out dating advice on the show, the rapper and DJ released a book shortly after called ‘Dr. Marcel’s Little Book of Big Love’ packed with tips on navigating modern dating.

And he was set to profit further off his relationship expertise by joining the team of Celebs Go Dating as their resident “Love guru”.

My book is quite redundant now

Marcel

But it all came crashing down when Marcel was caught cheating on Gabby while they were on holiday together.

“My book is quite redundant now,” he admitted to Metro.

Nonetheless, with the birth of his son Marcel has worked alongside brands such as Fisherprice and Smyths, and also appeared on MTV’s Celebrity Bumps with his wife.

He’s also launched an award-winning podcast alongside Jamie Jewitt and Jake Quickenden, and no doubt continues to rake in a healthy income as a fully-fledged “Dadfluencer”.

Net worth: £1.3m

Insta earnings: £2.4k-£3.7k per post

Gabby is estimated to be worth a whopping £1.3million[/caption]

Gabby may have had her heart broken by Blazin’ Squad’s Marcel – but she’s laughing all the way to the bank thanks to brand deals and her fitness enterprises.

The 32-year-old personal trainer is estimated to be worth a whopping £1.3million.

Her fitness app, Shape Up with Gabby Allen, went straight to the top of the App Store downloads chart when it was released back in 2018. 

She also released a book with the same name, full of fitness secrets and diet advice.

On top of her work as a fitness influencer, she appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018 and has stayed in the spotlight ever since.

Luca was due to appear on Celebrity Masterchef until the special was pulled from the schedule[/caption]

The 25-year-old fishmonger was a hit with Michael Owen’s daughter Gemma, back in 2022, but found himself mired in controversy after viewers condemned his “controlling behaviour”.

Luca was estimated to be worth an estimated £200,000 – and frequently shares snaps of his jet-setting lifestyle to his 1.2 million Instagram followers.

But while he doesn’t seem to have gone down the traditional Love Islander route of brand deals and pay-per-post marketing, he’s still earning more than enough to take private jets to LA and pose up next to MMA fighter Conor McGregor.

Luca was also set to take part in Celebrity MasterChef, but his TV-cooking debut never hit the screens after the scandal around host Gregg Wallace’s behaviour led to the show being pulled from the Christmas schedule. 

“Christmas is cancelled. Gutted our Christmas special has been put on hold,” Luca shared in a post on Instagram, adding: “But hope to be on your screens again soon.”

Kaz Crossley

South Londoner Kaz is set to return to the villa after finishing in third place on series 4 of the show alongside ex-beau Josh Denzel.

But while she never walked away with the Love Island prize pot, her TV appearances since have helped her rake in a handsome amount of cash – and earned her a whopping 1.1 million Instagram followers on the side. 

After going on Celebrity Ex on the Beach, Kaz took part in MTV show The Challenge UK, emerging as victor and winning £50,000 in the process.

She then went on to win the Challenge World Championship, netting a whopping $250,000 in prize money.

The 29-year-old former make-up artist has also taken up Muay Thai, and set up an organisation called The Combat Collective, which bills itself as the UK’s premier community for women keen to embrace fighting sports.

I made a vision board of all the things I want to do. I put UFC, and PFL logos and a little microphone there because I just wanted to manifest it and I basically did

Kaz Crossley

Following through with her love of martial arts, she joined Title Sports Network as their MMA reporter, covering UFC 304 ringside in Manchester.  

“I was obsessed with Muay Thai and then I discovered MMA and was like, ‘Wow! What is this,” Crossley told TalkSPORT.

“It’s crazy because this year I made a vision board of all the things I want to do. I put UFC, and PFL logos and a little microphone there because I just wanted to manifest it and I basically did.

“This is my first time going as media. I’m so excited. I’ve done all the UFC London shows ever since it’s been back, and I’ve gone as a fan.”

Former builder Nas took Love Island as a chance to have a complete career switch-up.

The 27-year-old boasts a respectable 393,000 followers on Instagram, but it’s on the red carpet he’s really been making moves.

After splitting up with fellow Love Islander Eva Zapico, Nas has taken up work as a presenter and content creator.

He’s worked alongside brands such as Sky and Samsung, helping them to create digital content, and represented Lad Bible on the red carpet for the premier of Barbie.

Nas has also hosted gaming show Celebrity Esports and interviewed young male migrants on their journey to the UK.

Two and a half years after snagging the £50,000 prize money alongside hunk Davide, Ekin-Su is tipped to reenter the villa as a bombshell.

She’s built up an estimated net worth of a whopping £1.6million, thanks to numerous brand deals and TV appearances.

After leaving the island the first time around, Ekin-Su signed a deal with Oh Polly worth an impressive £1million.

The 30-year-old also managed to net a £100,000 pay day for going on Dancing on Ice.

That’s in addition to going on Celebrity Big Brother and taking part in the US version of The Traitors.

And with four million followers on Instagram, it’s reported she could be earning an incredible £11,000 a week thanks to sponsorships and advertising opportunities.

Scott and his brother Adam together lost £195,000 when the business went bust[/caption]

It’s nearly ten years since Scott, 35, last went into the villa in the show’s second series back in 2016.

Worth a reported £750,000, Scott set up his own public relations company, The Social, using his own Love Island experience to specialise in influencer marketing.

With 1.1 million Instagram followers, he’s also been having a go at starting a podcast and doing motivational speaking.

But his adventures in the food industry have been less-than-successful.

His food and fitness business, Food4Thoughts, was set up in lockdown and employed around a dozen people before going bust with debts of £366,143 after not enough people signed up to the £100-a-month service.

The collapse cost his brother, Strictly star Adam, £125,000, while Scott himself lost £70,000 of his own money.

Scott said: “Grateful for the memories, grateful for the lessons, grateful for the people I’ve met along the way… @food4thoughts may have run its course but I will continue to run mine…see you at work.”

Former Page 3 girl India, who first went on Love Island back in 2019, has also partnered with lingerie brand Pour Moi and clothing company Revr Collective. 

But brand deals hasn’t been her only source of income, having launched an OnlyFans back in 2021.

She told OK!: “There are loads of people on there doing loads of different things.

“My family and friends are so supportive and there’s nothing on there that I wouldn’t post on Instagram anyway.”

After failing to find love in 2023’s series, Catherine will once again be putting her real estate career on hold as she heads to South Africa for All Stars.

With 201,000 followers on Instagram and 130,000 followers on TikTok, she’s worked alongside brands such as Jet 2 and a couple of cosmetics companies.

But it’s in property where her heart lies, with the Irish beauty revealing she recently completed a Masters degree in Real Estate and Development from the University of Greenwich.

That’s on top of her degree in psychology, sociology and real estate.

She also holds multiple investments in property and even helped to renovate her parents’ home back in Dublin.

The 29-year-old was thought to be one of the highest-earning members of the cast before she went on the show, with an estimated income of £72,000.

This was thanks to her work as a ring girl and actress, having played both Michelle Keegan and Emma Watson’s body double.

After going into the villa, Olivia secured a huge modelling deal with fashion giant Pretty Little Thing.

She’s also revealed aspirations to build a career in presenting.

Ronnie was one of the first participants in the new series to be confirmed[/caption]

Just months after his first attempt to look for love in the villa, 28-year-old Ronnie was recently spotted on his way to South Africa before his participation was officially confirmed.

Having only been out of the villa for a couple of months, he’s barely had time to date.

But it was estimated he was earning around £52,000 a year playing for non-league side Lewes FC.

He now plays for fellow-non-league side Ashford United, in Kent – though may be earning slightly less due to their lower position in the Isthmian South East Division.

However, with over 200,000 followers on Instagram and a brand new series of Love Island kicking off next week, it likely won’t be long until he’s earning even more with brand partnerships.

A MAJOR mobile firm is hiking bills for up to one million customers within weeks.

Sky Mobile is increasing both pay monthly and SIM-only contract prices on February 14.

Sky Mobile is also hiking a several selected fees and charges from the same date[/caption]

All customers who are out of contract will see their monthly bill rise by a fixed amount of £1.50 a month, translating to an annual increase of £18.

According to the latest data from Ofcom, 37% of all pay monthly mobile customers are out of contract.

Given that Sky Mobile has approximately three million customers, it is estimated that up to one million customers could see their bills increase.

However, customers who are still within their contract term will not experience any change in their bills.

You can check your contract status by asking your provider – over the phone or livechat – or by logging into your account online.

Sky usually sends a reminder 10 to 40 days before your contract ends, and then an annual reminder once you’re out of contract. 

However, customers can also text “INFO” and their date of birth to 85075 to find out if you owe anything for the remainder of your plan.

If you don’t, it can be assumed that you are out of contract.

A Sky Mobile spokesperson said: “We always aim to provide an outstanding service alongside some of the best value plans on the market.

“To ensure we can continue to invest in our services and deliver a great experience, the majority of our out of contract customers will see their monthly bill increase by £1.50 in February.”

OTHER CHARGES RISING

Sky Mobile is also hiking a several selected fees and charges from February 14, The Sun can reveal.

The cost of calls to the EU and EEA is increasing by 4p to 25p per minute.

Calls to the rest of the world will also be increasing from £2.50 per minute to £3.50.

The cost of sending text messages to the rest of the world will rise from 75p to 95p.

Calls to chargeable service numbers (starting 084, 087, 09 and 118) come with an access charge set by Sky.

This will increase from 75p to 95p in February.

The cost of sending picture messages to UK phone numbers will also rise from 80p to 95p.

Finally, if you have the International Saver Plan, the plan will increase from £3 to £4 per month effective from February 14.

Most other mobile networks implement their mid-contract price increases around April 1, making Sky Mobile an exception.

Sky Mobile has traditionally issued its price hikes in fixed amounts of pounds and pence, unlike other networks that tie their increases to inflation.

However, as of January 17, all telecom firms are required by the regulator Ofcom to display mid-contract price increases in pounds and pence.

Under the new rules, the maximum permissible price rises will be capped at between £1 and £3 per month.

OTHER FIRMS HIKES

BT, which also owns EE and Plusnet, said in April that it would no longer raise prices mid-contract based on a percentage linked to inflation.

All BT and EE customers who took out a new contract after April 10, 2024, are affected.

From March 2025, the price of mobile contracts will rise by £1.50 a month and broadband tariffs by £3 a month.

EE TV customers will have to pay an extra £2 a month.

The provider has said those vulnerable customers on EE Basics or BT Home Essentials contracts will be exempt from any price rises.

Plusnet will also increase its broadband price by £3 per month from the end of March.

Vodafone mobile phone customers will see their bills rise by £1.80 a month while Home Broadband customers will see prices hiked by £3.

Vodafone has said that price increases will not be applied to customers identified as financially vulnerable or those on social tariffs.

Since August 12, 2024, customers joining or re-contracting with TalkTalk will see the monthly amount they pay for their broadband increase by £3 annually in April.

Three has said new and upgrading Three customers will see their annual price rise determined by pound and pence from April.

Broadband increases are capped at £2 and mobile rises between £1 and £1.50 depending on the data allowance.

Tesco Mobile said someone on a £14.99 a month a deal would see their monthly contract price increase by 90p in April.

Customers on a £30 a month deal will see their basic monthly price increase by £1.80.

These increases suggest that the typical cost of a customer’s contract will rise 6% from April 2025.

“USUALLY in my second season I win things.”

Ange Postecoglou’s bold claim about Tottenham’s chances of ending a long wait without silverware this campaign.

And in a week that sees them in Carabao Cup semi final action and kicking off their FA Cup journey, you’d be daft not to notice the significance the next few days are to that prediction.

The inconsistency of the North Londoners is bordering on ridiculous.

Particularly when noticing only runaway leaders Liverpool have scored more Premier League goals than Ange’s men – yet sit away down in 12th.

When they’re good, they’re very good. When they’re rubbish, they’re you-know-what.

That’s why you wouldn’t completely put it past them beating Arne Slot’s high-flying Reds in the first leg of their Carabao semi tonight.

And why you also wouldn’t completely put it past them being dumped out the FA Cup at non-league Tamworth a few days later.

It’d undoubtedly be the most ‘Spursy’ thing ever. But just how likely is it to happen?

Well bookmakers talkSPORT BET have priced them up at 17/5 to beat Liverpool on Wednesday.

And Tamworth are firm outsiders at 12/1 (though they were 14/1 earlier in the week…) meaning the double has been priced up at a monster 56/1.

A MAJOR supermarket with 329 stores is set to close a popular branch this month after welcoming customers for more than 50 years.

The site, located in Hall Green, Birmingham, announced it will close its doors for the final time on January 14.

Waitrose claimed that “despite the best efforts” they were ultimately unable to find a way to “make the shop commercially sustainable.”

Execs dubbed the move a sad “last resort” after failing to bring in higher profits.

Redundancy consultations were held with the store’s 123 members of staff.

Hall Green North Councillor, Saima Suleman, announced the sad news on Facebook earlier last year.

Fans of the branch were saddened by the news.

The post sparked an outcry among shoppers who claimed they “want to move now”.

One user wrote: “Hall Green isn’t what it was I think it needs to be more suitably placed.”

Another resident said: “This has made me want to move now.”

Others added on social media: “That’s disappointing! It’s one of my favourites since moving back to Birmingham in this area.”

“Sad – it was always nice to have it at my doorstep. The staff in there are really friendly and helpful. What a shame!”, said another.

James Allen, head of retail operations at the supermarket, said: “Our priority now is doing everything we can to support our Partners at Waitrose Hall Green and we will explore opportunities, wherever possible, for those partners who may wish to remain with the Partnership.

“Closing any of our shops is always a last resort and is in no way a reflection on their hard work and dedication.”

A spokesperson for Waitrose also added that it will aim to find places for staff within the company.

They said: “The 123 partners who work in the shop will now enter a period of consultation. If the redundancy proposals go ahead, every effort will be made to find those who wish to remain within the partnership new roles

“Customers will continue to be able to get all their groceries on waitrose.com, our nearby Waitrose Solihull shop, under three miles away, and other on-demand locations in the event the closure is confirmed.

“The John Lewis Partnership is committed to providing support to those partners who are at risk of redundancy.

“We’ll be exploring opportunities for partners within the partnership first, and our retraining fund will contribute up to £3,000 towards a recognised qualification or course for up to two years for any partner with two years’ service or more who is made redundant.

“They would also be given access to a three-month support programme with an outplacement specialist to help with CV writing and interview skills.”

In addition to statutory redundancy payments, staff who have worked with the business for more than 90 days would be entitled to Partnership redundancy pay, which equates to one week’s pay for every year of service.
