Love Island All Stars winners Gabby Allen and Casey O’Gorman have confirmed they have split in an emotional statement. It comes just weeks after they were announced the winners of the hit ITV dating show.
In a joint statement, the couple’s reps said: “After much thoughtful consideration, Gabby and Casey have decided to go their separate ways romantically.”
The statement given to Mail Online added: “This decision was mutual, and they both remain on good terms as friends with a shared respect for each other.”
Gabby’s rep also added: “Gabby is grateful for the memories they’ve created together and wishes Casey nothing but the best as they both move forward on their individual journeys. She’s excited for what the future holds and appreciates.”

Gabby, 33, and Casey, 28, only became official in April when Gabby shared a clip of the couple on Instagram with the caption: “Boyfriend does my voiceover. Getting red carpet ready with @maybelline.”
Fans anticipated there could be trouble in paradise recently when Casey jokingly mocked his pal Ronnie Vint for making his relationship official with fellow Love Islander, Harriett Blackmore.
In February, Gabby and Casey shared sweet snaps of a double date with former Love Island All-Stars winners Molly Smith and Tom Clare.
In the video clip posted on his Instagram Stories, Casey was seen with his arm around Gabby while travelling to their date in a taxi. He initially spread panic among fans of the couple, who were already worried they’d split up, by saying: “Hello, we are back together.”
Casey immediately backtracked to shelve any spit fears at the time by quickly adding: “We hadn’t split up.” Gabby added jokingly: “Don’t panic, don’t panic.”
In March, Gabby gave an insight into the now former couple’s time outside of the villa. In an exclusive interview with the Mirror, she had explained how they were adjusting to life out of the villa and away from the cameras.
The Scouse star said: “It’s so much better. In there, you’re in a bubble and you’re on camera all the time – it’s an alien environment.
“Now, we just get to be normal. We live 10 minutes away from each other, it’s perfect.”
She had admitted at the time: “Seeing each other’s passions in real life is exciting. It feels really easy and comfortable. We just have so much fun – he’s even got me making TikToks.”
Gabby also confessed why she and Casey weren’t appearing at every red carpet event since their victory. She giggled: “People expect to see us together every second, and think we’re on the rocks when they haven’t seen us for a day – truth is, we’re probably just having sex.”

Troops of the Nigerian Army have dismantled 21 large-scale illegal refining sites and recovered over 591,000 litres of stolen crude oil and refined products across the Niger Delta, as part of ongoing efforts to combat oil theft.
The operations were conducted in collaboration with other security agencies between 28 April and 11 May 2025.
“In line with the operational mandate, troops discovered and dismantled 21 illegal refining sites and recovered stolen products, including crude oil and Automotive Gas Oil (AGO), in several states across the Niger Delta,” a statement issued on Sunday by the Acting Deputy Director, Army Public Relations, 6 Division, Lieutenant Colonel Danjuma Jonah Danjuma, read.
The army also confirmed the arrest of 36 suspected oil thieves during coordinated raids.

In Rivers State, troops uncovered five illegal refining sites in the Abua/Odual Local Government Area of the state, following the discovery of a 15-kilometre hose connected to an illegal loading point.
The operation led to the seizure of over 350,000 litres of AGO and an additional 100,000 litres of crude oil concealed in dugouts.
Recovered items included electric cables, a pumping machine, and borehole infrastructure.
Along the fringes of the Imo River, seven illegal refining sites were destroyed.
The troops also confiscated 21,500 litres of stolen crude packaged in bags, demobilised five boats, and intercepted a truck carrying 20,000 litres of stolen oil in Eleme, Rivers State.
In Bonny, a Pureputt boat laden with 10,000 litres of stolen products was also discovered, while additional illegal activities were disrupted in Okarki Forest, Ahoada West.
According to the statement, the troops intercepted a DAF XF380 tanker conveying 45,000 litres of stolen AGO and arrested three suspects in Bayelsa State.
A wooden boat containing 1,000 litres of concealed crude was also found in a creek between Oyeregbene and Babragbene communities.
In Akwa Ibom, soldiers intercepted a tanker suspected to be transporting 16,500 litres of stolen crude in Uyo, while security operatives intercepted vehicles carrying over 1,250 litres of AGO and recovered arms and ammunition in Oshimili South, Delta State.
“All arrested suspects have been handed over to the appropriate agencies for prosecution, while seizures made were handled in line with our operational procedures,” the statement added.
The Army also highlighted the role of the General Officer Commanding 6 Division, Major General Emmanuel Eric Emekah, who has been undertaking continuous operational tours across the region.
I had closely followed the genocidal war in Gaza for nine months when an opportunity came around to volunteer as part of a medical mission organised by the United Nations, World Health Organization and the Palestinian American Medical Association.
As a trained nephrologist, a doctor who treats patients with kidney disease, I felt there was a critical need for specialised medical care amid the collapse of the healthcare system in Gaza and the high number of medical specialists who had been killed.
I also felt it was my duty as a Muslim to help the people of Gaza. Islam teaches us that whoever saves one life, it is as if he had saved all of humanity; taking care of others is an act of worship, and standing up against injustice is a moral obligation.
I believe my degrees are not meant to simply hang on the walls of an air-conditioned office or help me drive the nicest car or live in an expensive neighbourhood. They are a testament to the fact that I have taken an oath to dedicate my expertise to the service of humanity, to maintain the utmost respect for human life and to offer my medical knowledge and compassion to those in need.
So on July 16, I departed for Gaza with a few other medics.
We entered the strip through the Karem Abu Salem crossing. We went from observing the prosperity, comfort and wealth of the Israeli side to recoiling at the destruction, devastation and misery of the Palestinian side. We basically saw what apartheid looks like.
On our short trip through southern Gaza to reach our destination in Khan Younis, we saw many buildings bombed, damaged or destroyed. Homes, schools, shops, hospitals, mosques – you name it.
The amount of rubble was sickening. To this day, I can’t unsee the landscapes of destruction I witnessed in Gaza.
We were accommodated in Al-Nasser Hospital because it was too dangerous to stay at any other place. We were welcomed and cared for so much that I felt embarrassed. We were seen as saviours.
I treated patients with kidney problems, worked as a primary care physician and sometimes helped during mass casualty events in the emergency room.

Dialysis requires clean water, sterile supplies, reliable electricity, medications and equipment that must be maintained and replaced – none of which was guaranteed under the Israeli blockade. Each dialysis session was a challenge. Every delay increased the risk of my patients dying. Many of them did die – a fact I struggled to accept, knowing that under normal circumstances, many of them could have been saved and lived normal lives.
I remember the smiling face of one of my patients, Waleed, a young man who suffered from kidney failure caused by early-onset high blood pressure, a condition that, with access to proper treatment, could have been managed appropriately.
Dialysis was Waleed’s lifeline, but he couldn’t get an adequate number of sessions due to the Israeli blockade causing severe shortages of medical supplies. Malnutrition and worsening living conditions only accelerated his decline.
I remember how short of breath he was, his body overloaded with fluid and his blood pressure dangerously high. And yet, every time I saw him, Waleed greeted me with a warm smile, his spirit somehow intact, his mother always by his side. A few months after I left Gaza, Waleed passed away.
Another patient of mine was Hussein, a gentle, kind-hearted, deeply respected man. His children cared for him with love and dignity.
He suffered from severe hypokalaemia and acidosis: His body’s potassium levels were dangerously low, and acid built up to toxic levels. To address his condition, he needed basic medications: potassium supplements and sodium bicarbonate pills.
These were simple, inexpensive, life-saving medicines, and yet, the Israeli blockade did not allow them in. Because he could not find these pills, Hussein was hospitalised multiple times for intravenous potassium supplementation.
Despite his immense suffering, Hussein remained gracious, brave and full of faith. When speaking, he always repeated the phrase Alhamdulillah (praise be to God). He passed away a few weeks ago, I was told.
Waleed and Hussein should be here – smiling, laughing, living happily with their families. Instead, they became casualties of siege and silence. These are two of so many tragic stories I know of and I witnessed. So many beautiful lives that could have been saved were lost.
Despite this grim reality, my colleagues in Gaza continue to do their utmost for their patients.
These are medics who are bruised in every way. They are not only battling the daily struggles of life like all other Palestinians in Gaza but also witnessing daily horrors of headless babies, amputated limbs, fully burned human beings and sometimes the lifeless remains of their own loved ones.
Imagine working with no anaesthesia, limited pain medications, very few antibiotics. Imagine surgeons scrubbing with plain water, children undergoing amputations with no sedation, full-body burns patients’ dressings being changed with no pain relief.
Still these healthcare heroes just keep going.
One of the nurses I worked with, Arafat, made a deep impression on me. He was living in a makeshift shelter with multiple family members. It offered no protection against the elements – the cold winter, the scorching heat or the drenching rain.
He starved – like all other Palestinians in Gaza – losing 15kg (33lb) in nine months. He walked 2km to 3km (1 to 2 miles) every day to work with worn-out sandals, facing the danger of Israeli drones bombing or shooting him in the street.
And yet, the smile never left his face. He took care of more than 280 dialysis patients, treating them with care, attentively listening to their anxious families and uplifting his colleagues with light humour.
I felt so small next to heroes like Arafat. His and his colleagues’ resilience and persistence were unbelievable.
While in Gaza, I had the opportunity to visit Al-Shifa Hospital with a UN delegation. What once was Gaza’s largest and most vital medical centre was reduced to ruins. The hospital that was once a symbol of hope and healing had become a symbol of death and destruction, of the deliberate dismantling of healthcare. It was beyond heartbreaking to see its charred, bombed-out remains.
I stayed in Gaza for 22 days. It was an absolute honour to visit, serve and learn life from the resilient people of Gaza. Their relentless courage and determination will stay with me until I die.
Despite witnessing what I could have never imagined, I did not have the urge to leave. I wanted to stay. Back in the United States, I felt profound guilt that I left behind my colleagues and my patients, that I did not stay, that I did not do enough.
Feeling this constant heartache, I cannot understand the growing number of people who are accustomed to the daily reports of Palestinian deaths and images of torn bodies and starving children.
As human beings and as health workers, we cannot quit on Gaza. We cannot stay silent and passive. We must speak out and act on the devastation of healthcare and attacks on our colleagues in the Gaza Strip.
Already fewer and fewer healthcare workers are being allowed to enter Gaza on medical missions. The current blockade has prevented all medical supplies from going in.
We, as healthcare professionals, must mobilise to demand an immediate lifting of the siege and free access to medical missions. We must not stop volunteering to help the struggling medical teams in Gaza. Such acts of speaking out and volunteering give our colleagues in Gaza the hope and comfort that they have not been abandoned.
Let us not allow Gaza to be just a symbol of destruction. Instead, let it be the example of unbreakable spirit.
Stand, speak and act – so history remembers not just the tragedy but also the triumph of human compassion.
Peter Andre has shared that he and wife Emily MacDonagh have made a huge family decision after the couple experienced ‘complications’ during the birth of their youngest child

Pop star Peter Andre has candidly opened up about a significant family choice following the revelation of his wife Emily’s health challenges.
Peter first became a dad nearly two decades ago when he and fellow ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ participant, Katie Price, welcomed their son Junior.
Not long behind was their daughter Princess, but alas, his high-profile romance with the former glamour model ended in 2009.
The ‘Mysterious Girl’ singer’s love life took a turn for the better when he met Emily MacDonagh under extraordinary circumstances.
Their fateful encounter happened after Peter’s kidney stone operation performed by none other than Emily’s father, a skilled urologist, back in 2010.

Since making their relationship official in 2012, Peter and Emily haven’t looked back, welcoming their first daughter Amelia in 2014 and later their children Theo and Arabella, reports Somerset Live.
However, reflecting on the moment Arabella came into the world during a heart-to-heart on Giovanna Fletcher’s Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast, Peter shared a surprising update about potentially expanding his brood further.
As the newest addition to the family arrived, he recognised that Arabella would be their final child, describing the realisation as “bittersweet”.
Amidst heartfelt emotions while discussing their family plans, he expressed his gratitude for parenthood: “It’s beautiful because you’ve experienced it, how lucky. When I think of people who can’t have children, and I’m thinking I’ve got to experience it that many times.”
However, the 52-year-old revealed they had made the decision not to expand their brood further due to “complications” during the birth of their daughter Arabella last year.

He said: “Emily had a real complication with Belle which I’m sure she’ll tell you about, which people didn’t know about, and I don’t know if she’s ever talked about it, but the complications that happened after, that were very serious.”
He went on to describe a frightening period in their lives, yet also acknowledged that it solidified their decision: “So it was a very scary time as well, but it also confirmed that it was the last time.”
Peter also touched on the unity within their blended family, detailing in his memoir, ‘Between Us’, the relationship his eldest children, Junior and Princess, share with their stepmother Emily: “So, as our relationship blossomed, the kids only knew her as a friend. But, what a friend. Just as Emily and I had developed this incredible closeness, so the children were creating an amazing bond with her.”
India has ordered a Pakistani diplomat to leave the country within 24 hours as tensions simmer in the wake of heavy military exchanges between the nuclear-armed neighbours before a ceasefire was agreed last week.
The unnamed official, stationed at Pakistan’s embassy in New Delhi, was accused by India’s Ministry of External Affairs on Tuesday of “indulging in activities not in keeping with his official status”.
The move comes after a brief but intense military confrontation last week that threatened to erupt into the fifth full-scale war between the two countries. While the truce brought a temporary halt to cross-border missile and drone strikes, sporadic skirmishes continue along the Line of Control (LoC), the de facto border in disputed Kashmir, a region claimed by both nations.
On Tuesday, Pakistan reiterated its commitment to the ceasefire but warned it would respond forcefully to any future attacks.
The statement came after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi warned in his first national address since the truce that India would strike “terrorist hideouts” across the border if provoked again.
The ultranationalist Hindu leader added that India “only paused” its military action against Pakistan.
Modi’s remarks were swiftly condemned by Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which called them “provocative and inflammatory”.
“At a time when international efforts are being made for regional peace and stability, this statement represents a dangerous escalation,” it said.
“Pakistan remains committed to the recent ceasefire understanding and taking necessary steps towards de-escalation and regional stability,” the statement continued, adding that any future aggression would receive a response.
The conflict ignited after a deadly April 22 shooting attack in the Pahalgam area of India-administered Kashmir, where 25 Indian tourists and one Nepalese visitor were killed. India accused Pakistan’s government of links to the attacks – an accusation Islamabad strongly denied.
India launched strikes on what it called “terrorist infrastructure” in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir.
According to Islamabad, 40 civilians and 11 Pakistani military personnel were killed in last week’s violence. India said at least 16 civilians and five Indian soldiers were killed.
The fighting marked the most severe exchange between the two countries in nearly 30 years and ended only after sustained diplomatic pressure. On Monday, India said it held a rare phone call with Pakistan’s military leaders, agreeing to uphold the ceasefire and explore ways to de-escalate the conflict.
Fragile ceasefire
Despite the ceasefire, sporadic violence continued on Tuesday with Indian forces reporting a gun battle in southern Kashmir’s Shopian district. The army said three suspected fighters were killed in a “search and destroy” operation launched on intelligence input.
On Tuesday, Modi visited Adampur airbase near the border and reiterated India’s stance in a speech to air force personnel. “We will not differentiate between the government sponsoring terrorism and the masterminds of terrorism,” he said.
“We will enter their dens and hit them without giving them an opportunity to survive.”
Meanwhile, both sides have taken a series of retaliatory diplomatic and economic measures.
India has suspended most visa services for Pakistani nationals, halted bilateral trade and announced its intention to unilaterally suspend the Indus Waters Treaty, a World Bank-brokered water-sharing agreement in place since 1960 that is critical for farming.
Reality TV star and business mogul Kim Kardashian has testified before a French courtroom about her experience getting robbed at gunpoint in a Paris hotel.
Taking the witness stand on Tuesday, Kardashian confronted the suspects accused of tying her up and taping her mouth shut on October 3, 2016, while they stole more than $6m in jewellery.
The case concerns a group of about a dozen suspects known in French media as “les papys braqueurs”: the grandpa robbers. The group, many in their 60s and 70s, are part of a crime ring, according to prosecutors. One has died since the robbery took place, while the charges against another have been dismissed due to health concerns.
But Kardashian recounted the terror she felt as members of the group burst into her hotel room after a night at the Paris Fashion Week.
“We were leaving the next morning, so I was just packing up,” Kardashian said. “It was around three in the morning. I heard stomping up the stairs when I was in bed.”
She explained that she figured it was her older sister, Kourtney Kardashian, returning to the hotel room. But instead, it was a group of armed men, dressed as police officers and wearing balaclavas.
Waving a gun at her, one of the men asked her to surrender her $4m engagement ring, a gift from her then-husband Kanye West, a rapper now known as Ye.
“Then I heard one of the gentlemen forcefully say ‘Ring! Ring!’ in English, with an accent, pointing,” she said.
At one point, she said the robbers threw her onto the hotel bed. She was wearing a bathrobe at the time.
“I was certain that was the moment that he was going to rape me,” Kardashian explained. “I absolutely did think I was going to die.”
Her mind flashed to the idea of her sister coming home to find her body, she added. “I thought about my sister, thought she would walk in and see me shot dead and have that memory in her forever.”
But the robbers proceeded to restrain her with zip ties and duct tape. They told her she would be safe so long as she remained quiet.
“I have babies,” Kardashian, a mother of four, remembered thinking. “I have to make it home. They can take everything. I just have to make it home.”
Eventually, she was locked in the hotel room’s marble bathroom while the robbers made their escape. During her testimony, she explained that the suspects did not beat her during the attack.
“I was grabbed and dragged into the other room and thrown onto the floor, but wasn’t hit, no,” she said.

Eventually, Kardashian said she was able to use the bathroom sink to loosen the restraints on her hands. She hobbled downstairs, where she met with her stylist Simone Harouche, who had locked herself in a bathroom one floor below to call for help during the attack.
“She was beside herself. I’ve never seen her like that before,” Harouche said of Kardashian. “She just was screaming and kept saying, ‘We need to get out of here. We need help. What are we going to do if they come back?’”
The attack prompted the entertainment industry to adopt new procedures around security and social media posts, including through the delayed publication of certain images that might help robbers identify targets and locations.
Some critics, however, blamed Kardashian herself for her luxurious lifestyle and lack of on-hand security. The controversial fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, for instance, was quoted by the Reuters news agency as questioning Kardashian’s habit of posting photos of herself on social media.
“You cannot display your wealth and then be surprised that some people want to share it with you,” the late designer said.
That kind of commentary has sparked its own backlash, with some denouncing it as victim-blaming. Still, Judge David De Pas in Paris asked those involved if they had not made themselves targets.
“Just because a woman wears jewellery, that doesn’t make her a target,” Harouche said. “That’s like saying that because a woman wears a short skirt that she deserves to be raped.”
Kardashian added that she had a bodyguard in a separate hotel. “We assumed that, if we were in a hotel, it was safe, it was secure,” she said.
She added that she now keeps five or six guards around her. She also blamed the Paris attack for prompting a copycat robbery at her Los Angeles house.
“I started to get this phobia of going out,” Kardashian said. “This experience really changed everything for us.”
Tuesday’s appearance is expected to be the only time Kardashian testifies in the criminal case, which includes 10 defendants: nine men and one woman.
Five of the men face armed robbery and kidnapping charges that could result in life imprisonment. Others face lesser charges of being accomplices or possessing unauthorised firearms.
Prosecutors say the ringleader in the group was a 69-year-old man named Aomar Ait Khedache, nicknamed “Omar the Old”. He wrote a letter of apology that was read aloud in the court.
