Molly Smith and Tom Clare Celebrate Wedding After Love Island: All Stars Victory
Ninoda.com – Love Island: All Stars champions Molly Smith and Tom Clare have officially become husband and wife. The pair, who claimed victory in the inaugural season of the spin-off series back in 2024, shared the joyful news through their Instagram accounts. Accompanying their announcement was an image capturing a kiss as flower petals drifted through the air around them.
A Beautiful Ceremony
For the special occasion, 32-year-old Molly chose a white mini dress featuring short sleeves, complemented by a coordinating pillbox hat and a delicate netted veil. Her new husband, 26, looked dapper in a classic black suit paired with a tie.
Adding to the celebration, Molly uploaded a photograph to her Instagram story showing her hand resting gently atop Tom’s. The image displayed their wedding bands alongside a lovely floral bouquet, accompanied by the simple yet meaningful caption: “Husband and wife”.
From Engagement to Marriage
The couple announced their engagement in September last year after Tom proposed in Dubai in front of the luxury hotel, Burj Al Arab, with a host of candles and flowers.
Tom and Molly’s journey together began two years ago when they first crossed paths on the opening season of Love Island: All Stars. This particular spin-off brings back previous contestants for another opportunity to find romance within the villa walls.
During their time on the reality dating program, the duo emerged victorious over Molly’s former boyfriend Callum Jones and his then-partner Jessica Gale, who secured the runner-up position.
Background and Connections
Molly had previously appeared in series six of the main show in 2020. She departed alongside Callum, with whom she shared a three-year relationship before their split.
Tom, who plays football for Hyde United, had his own reality television experience. He finished in third place during the second winter edition of Love Island in 2023, competing alongside his former partner Samie Elishi.
Earlier this year, the newlyweds assumed hosting responsibilities for the NearlyWeds podcast, taking over from radio personalities and reality television figures Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo.
Fellow contestants from the Love Island universe were quick to offer their congratulations. Former champion Casey O’Gorman called it the “best day”, while Sophie Piper—who placed third during their All Stars season—and TikTok personality GK Barry also sent their well-wishes to the happy couple.
