Tom broke his silence as he appeared alongside fellow Islanders at a Celsius event
The pair coupled up nearly a month into the hit series but were dumped just a week later.

Samie and Tom didn’t last long after their villa stint, parting ways after just a few months.

Footballer Tom is now loved up and engaged to his Love Island All Stars partner Molly, 31.

Breaking his silence on Samie at a Celsius launch event, Tom revealed himself and stunning fitness fanatic Molly had been watching the show together.

He said: “I think it was a great series and me and Molly both enjoyed watching it as fans as well.”

The reality stars, who are taking over the Nearly Weds podcast from Jamie and Sophie Lang, have been sharing drips and drabs of their Love Island opinions.

While they largely avoided the topic of Samie, 26, and her new romance with Ciaran Davies, Tom has now spoken out.

Despite fans claiming the results were “rigged,” Tom said: “I think a big congratulations to them both.

“I think the whole show was full of drama. I think it had everything.”

The winning couple had a plain sailing journey in the South African villa and fans barely saw their relationship play out on their screens.

Samie and Ciaran coupled up soon after she entered the villa as a bombshell, and despite many more bombshells and unexpected twists the smitten pair stayed strong.

Tom recently took to his social media telling fans how grateful he was to have gone on his season of Love Island.

He admitted if him and Molly didn’t go on their separate series they never met would have met on All Stars.

Tom got down on one knee in a romantic proposal in Dubai last September – it was the spot the pair first holidayed together.

The happy couple live in a stunning old-fashioned property, based in Barnsley.

It boasts a huge garden, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a giant open-plan kitchen and games room.

They even renovated the property to include a massive home gym to accommodate their love of fitness.

Samie and Tom’s relationship timeline

Tom entered the ITV villa before Samie but didn’t find a connection with any of the girls.
He was coupled up with Olivia Hawkins and briefly Zara Lackenby-Brown.
Samie made her villa debut on week two of series 9.
She made a dramatic entrance to the villa and her and Tom struck up a connection.
On day 21 Samie decided to couple up with Tom.
A few days later on day 24, Tom confessed his feelings for Samie and they remained in a couple.
The pair managed to make it all the way to the Love Island final despite both being bombshells.
Unfortunately they failed to scoop the 50k, losing out to winners Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan and placing just behind runners up Ron Hall and Lana Jenkins.
After the winter show ended in February, Tom and Samie were spotted travelling back and forth to each other’s homes and going on lots of dates.
They made their relationship official in March 2023 with Samie posting a snap with the caption “This is my BOYFRIEND everyone.”
Tom even mentioned he would be willing to move in when the time was right.
Samie and Tom appeared on Chloe Burrow’s podcast Chloe Saves The World and Samie made a startling confession.
She told fans she didn’t go on the show for love but for her career and wasn’t expecting to find anyone.
Tom and Samie split in April 2023 and they both claimed their was no “bad blood.”
Samie, who lives in Essex, said at the time she believed they couldn’t make the distance work.
Prior to Tom entering the All Stars villa in January 2024 Tom said their relationship felt ‘intense’ and ‘pressurised.’
At the time he admitted he would find it hard if Samie went into the villa too. Tom said: “I think it’s hard because I was obviously in love with Samie so I don’t know how I would react.”
It’s unknown when the pair last saw each other.
Tom has congratulated his ex Samie on her All Stars win.
