Love Island All Stars highest earners REVEALED by expert
While conversation in the villa has focussed on how their relationships will fare in the outside world, the Islanders are sure to be pondering what lies in store for their bank balances as well.
With less than a week to go until the grand final, the remaining Love Island All Stars couples have all begun to contemplate what their lives will look like once they get home.
And while conversation in the villa has focussed on how their relationships will fare in the outside world, the Islanders are sure to be pondering what lies in store for their bank balances as well.
After the shocking dumping of Tina Stinnes and Chuggs Wallis this week, there are only six couples left to battle it out for the ÂŁ50,000 prize.
Last in the running are Luca Bish and Grace Jackson, Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman, Curtis Pritchard and Ekin-Su CĂźlcĂźloÄlu, Elma Pazar and Sammy Root, Catherine Agbaje and Omar Nyame, and Ronnie Vint and Harriett Blackmore.
But a PR expert has now revealed that even without winning, many of the stars have the potential to make millions off the back of the show.
It was previously reported that the contestants cash in £2,000 per week they are in the villa, a huge increase from the previous £375 a week paycheck they used to earn, but much lower when compared to other reality show paychecks.

However, Islanders make their most money from the show after they leave the island, with many signing up to do the dating show purely for the exposure and a chance to become the next Molly-Mae Hague.
Last month, a source told The Sun: 'The All Stars cast all earn ÂŁ2,000 a week to appear on the series, so if they stay in for the whole run, they'll bank just over ÂŁ8K.Â
'Obviously it's more than they'd earn doing a regular job, but as far as reality TV salaries go, it's not that huge.
'They could earn a lot more on other shows like Strictly or Celebrity Masterchef, and it's certainly not as lucrative as the club PAs or the money they rake in from Instagram ads.
'The reason they sign up, however, is nothing to do with the money - it's great exposure which allows them to cash in when they leave the villa.'
Out of the remaining couples, Lynn Carratt, Head of Talent at Press Box PR, has predicted that it will be Harriett and Ronnie who will come out on top, winning both the ÂŁ50,000 cash prize as well as the best deals, even suggesting the pair could land their own TV show.
The PR expert acknowledged it was 'risky' returning to the villa, as the Islanders can never be sure how much airtime they'll get or what the public will think of them.
However, Lynn said that the cast's already huge followings on social media put them in good stead to cash in on major brand deals, despite Islanders in recent series having less success as influencers than the earlier seasons.

Speaking on behalf of FruitySlots. she said: 'It's always a risky move to return to the Love Island villa. You can never be quite sure of the public's reaction to you.Â
'Reality stars return to the villa to regain their public profile. They'll be on TV daily, returning them to the public's consciousness.Â
'Many of them will make in excess of ÂŁ1 million through brand deals after leaving the villa because they already have a large following.
'We saw how well Molly Smith did last year after winning alongside her new beau Tom Clare. She's gained millions of followers and bagged a number of lucrative brand deals in the process, making her one of the most successful Islanders to date.Â
'Meanwhile, All Stars Gabby Allen and Ekin-Su are already worth a reported ÂŁ1.6 million each. However, it has become more challenging to build your success after appearing on the show in recent years.
'My biggest hope for the outside is Ronnie and Harriett, and if they play it right, they could bring home the Love Island crown and lucrative brand deals too.Â
'When the show started, Ronnie was back to turbo and moving mad. But since his ex, Harriett, arrived in the villa, Ronnie has become a one-woman man, and the pair have left viewers crying with laughter.Â
'They are now odds-on favourites to win the show. I have always said that Harriett is TV gold, and I can see them with their at-home show on ITVBe and joint brand partnerships.Â

While Lynn admits she doesn't believe Ekin-Su and Curtis have a chance at winning the show, she predicts they could 'generate ÂŁ1 million in brand deals' after the villa (pictured)
'From a PR perspective, Harriett and Ronnie will be the highest earners I believe in terms of TV deals and will make in excess of ÂŁ250,000.'
Between his arrival on All Stars and his last stint in the villa in the summer of 2024, Ronnie hadn't had much time to amass a fortune.
It was estimated that prior to his Love Island fame he was earning around £52,000 a year playing for semi-professional football club Lewes FC, before moving to another semi-professional club, Ashford United, in Kent.
However, after a memorable turn in villa and boasting close friendships with fellow Love Island alum Olivia Atwood and her husband Bradley Dack, he was already estimated to be earning a healthy £550 to £800 per Instagram post before All Stars.
Meanwhile, one couple who has been at the heart of some of this series most dramatic scenes could also bag themselves a huge payday.
While Lynn admits she doesn't believe Ekin-Su and Curtis have a chance at winning the show, she predicts they could 'generate £1 million in brand deals' after the villa.
She said: 'This year, Ekin-Su, who came in as a bombshell, has the most significant public profile, with over four million followers on social media.Â
'However, after her appearance on the Celebrity Big Brother, she had much to do to win back the public. Although Ekin has brought the much-needed drama, odds show that her and Curtis are the least likely couple to win the show.
Ekin-Su was already sitting pretty ahead of her bombshell arrival on All Stars, having already made over ÂŁ1million since her last appearance in the villa
Her first big deal came shortly after winning the show when she secured an incredible ÂŁ1million brand deal with clothing company Oh Polly! (pictured)
And her momentum continued as she received a huge ÂŁ100,000 pay day to compete on Dancing On Ice in 2023, and made her controversial appearance on Celebrity Big Brother last year, alongside the likes of Sharon Osborne and Louis Walsh (pictured on show)
'While they may not be the current favourites, they do have over five million followers on social media who are very engaged and that could generate them over ÂŁ1 million in brand deals following the show.
'Also, Curtis is known for his love of making coffee for everyone, Nescafe would be a good fit for him.'
Ekin-Su was already sitting pretty ahead of her bombshell arrival on All Stars, having already made over £1million since her last appearance in the villa.
She famously scooped the £50,000 cash prize in the 2022 summer series with her now ex-boyfriend Davide Sanclimenti.
She has since amassed an impressive ÂŁ1.6million fortune from to brand deals and TV appearances, according to The Sun - also raking in ÂŁ6.8k to ÂŁ10k per post on Instagram.Â

Having cemented herself as a reality TV favourite, Ekin's next appearance came on the US version of The Traitors, which aired on Peacock in early 2024.
While her partner Curtis has also made a slew of TV appearances over the years, since making a splash on the 2019 series of Love Island (pictured on Celebs Go Dating in 2021)

While her partner Curtis has also made a slew of TV appearances over the years, since making a splash on the 2019 series of Love Island.
The professional ballroom dancer is said to have built a fortune of ÂŁ400,000 from his various appearances on number of reality shows, including Celebs Go Dating and Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
Curtis previously admitted to the i that Love Island helped him financially, after struggling for cash at the beginning of his ballroom and Latin career.Â
His luck changed when he was hired as a professional on Irelandâs Dancing With The Stars and after being fat-shamed on Love Island, he landed a 'lucrative' 12-month Weight Watchers deal.
Other TV appearances Curtis has enjoyed over the years include as a guest choreographer on Drag Race UK, a show called The Boxer and The Ballroom Dancer with Tommy Fury, a receptionist on BBC's The Greatest Dancer and competing on The Challenge UK.
While his most famous foray into the TV world was in 2021, when he and his brother AJ played twins Marco and Jacob in Hollyoaks, which quickly went viral due to their 'wooden' acting.
Another star that Lynn predicts will make some serious money is Gabby, however she also has a lack of faith in the fitness influencer's relationship with Casey going the distance.
She explained: 'I fear, as we have seen with many couples on previous Love Island shows, that many of the couples on All-Stars will break up on the outside.Â

Gabby has already made a huge £1.3million after rising to fame on Love Island in 2017, going on to build a fitness empire
Gabby soon took to Instagram to share fitness tips as she setup about making a career as a personal trainer, and she makes ÂŁ2.4k to ÂŁ3.7k for every post she shares on the app
'Being in the Love Island villa is like a holiday romance, and when the couples leave the villa, it is difficult for them to align their lives together - especially if there is distance involved or one is in more for work than the other.
'With that being said, Elma and Sammy could last outside as they both live in Essex and are both on The Only Way is Essex.Â
'I also have high hopes for Gabby and Casey, but this is his third time in the villa, so can he commit?Â
'In terms of Gabby, she has one million followers and could make in excess of ÂŁ250,000 in brand deals in the next six months. We could also see her working with the likes of fitness clothing brands, such as Lululemon.'
Gabby has already made a huge £1.3million after rising to fame on Love Island in 2017, where she came fourth with fellow All Star Marcel Somerville.
Just one year after leaving the villa, she appeared on Celebrity Big Brother alongside the likes of Ryan Thomas, Jermaine Pennant and Roxanne Pallett, as well as Dan Osbourne - who she hit headlines with after the pair were spotted looking cosy on a yacht.Â
Gabby soon took to Instagram to share fitness tips as she setup about making a career as a personal trainer, and she makes ÂŁ2.4k to ÂŁ3.7k for every post she shares on the app.Â
But her ÂŁ1.3million net worth could be thanks to her entrepreneurial skills as she turned her fitness posts in a business and started an app called Shape Up with Gabby Allen - which soared to the top of the App Store downloads chart upon its release in 2018.Â
Capitalising on her fitness empire, she went on to release a book sharing fitness and diet tips, also named Shape Up with Gabby.Â
