Love Island stars become step-siblings after their parents fell in love

Two contestants went on Love Island searching for the perfect match, but instead of finding love for themselves, it was their parents who got married.

Mollie Salmon and George Tasker entered the Love Island villa as bombshells hoping to shake up the drama in Casa Amor, however, it was their parents who decided to couple up in the end after meeting during the ITV2 show's reunion.

Only a month later, George's mum and Mollie's dad found themselves married, and the stars became step-siblings.

Addressing the matter on an Instagram Q&A, the former Love Islander said: "So basically, absolute madness, my mum has married Mollie's dad.

"So now we are stepbrother and stepsister, which is mad"

George added: "They met at the reunion about a month ago and since then got engaged and got married."

Both George and Mollie were unsuccessful in love and were sent home after the Casa Amor recoupling as their chosen contestants, and this year's winners, decided to stay with their original partners.

George was devastated when Ekin Su Cülcüloğlu, chose not to couple up with him. While Mollie flirted with Luca Bish and Jacques O’Neill before kissing and sharing a bed with Davide Sanclimenti, however, she was still not picked.
