Scott Thomas has quit Love Island: All Stars in a dramatic move that has left the villa in shock.
A reliable source revealed to MailOnline that the 36-year-old reality star decided to leave the ITV show on Friday. He felt that the show was not the right fit for him and he was having difficulty establishing a real connection.
The reality star first appeared on series two and was partnered with Tina Stinnes, 29. However, doubts started to creep in, and it appears that Scott has chosen to end the relationship.
Viewers witnessed Scott’s uncertainty about his relationship with Tina in recent episodes. He found himself grappling with the question of whether she was his perfect match or not.
A recent outburst saw him lock horns with Luca Bish, 25, after the fishmonger explosively told the whole villa that he was questioning his coupling with the blonde beauty.
A source told The Sun:Â ‘Scott was unable to get past the feeling Tina wasn’t right for him and his biggest priority was not wasting her precious time in the villa.
‘He knows this is a big opportunity for her in love and life and would never want to ruin that.

A source has confirmed to MailOnline that the 36-year-old reality star packed his bags and left the ITV show on Friday, after deciding it ‘wasn’t for him’
‘After taking some time out with the dedicated Love Island welfare team, Scott decided that the best thing he could do for himself was to remove himself from the situation.’
The source added that he didn’t want to force the connection and so ultimately made the decision to depart the show.Â
Tonight’s episode will reportedly see Scott continue to voice his concerns and mull over his decision, before the Islanders have to take part in a recoupling.
Although, Scott’s sudden departure will likely not be revealed in tonight’s show and viewers will have to wait until Sunday’s episode to see the moment unfold.
The Islanders have been left heartbroken by Scott’s decision, which has also left Tina single on the show. Â
It comes after Luca tried to make things right between himself and pal Scott during Tuesday’s episode as he saved Tina from a shock dumping.
The former fishmonger was left in tears following a heated argument with Scott during a fiery game of Truth Or Dare on Vegas night.
Luca turned on his fellow castmate when the duo had a tense conversation about bombshell Tina, sparking an explosive row.
Scott made a cryptic comment about Luca’s couple Grace Jackson, 26, which led to tempers soaring as Luca clapped back with his own snide remark.

During the game, Scott said he had a truth he wanted to ask Grace but said he ‘didn’t want to say’ it aloud.
Luca snapped before he revealed to the group minutes later that Scott was ‘not feeling it now’ with Tina.
This immediately caused Tina to cry before walking off upset and found a haven in the girls’ dressing room.
But it went from bad to worst for the couple after Scott attempted to provide Tina with some clarity.
Pulling her for a chat on the bean bags Scott said: ‘By the way, what he’s just said has been completely, like….’
Tina replied: ‘Well, I’ve just got told you wanted to tell me this today.’
Scott added: ‘I said to the boys tonight, basically, I love spending time with you, we vibe, but I wanted to say to you tonight that I’m worried I’m not fully in the same place you’re at.’
Wiping the tears from her eyes, Tina quipped: ‘Cool’, before Scott insisted ‘that’s all it was going to be.’
After airing their feelings, Scott and Tina made up and seemed to be on moving forward from the situation
But Tina made her emotions known and added: ‘I’m p***ed off! Like I’m just annoyed. I need to process all this s***.
‘And now I’m going to withdraw. I’m going to withdraw myself.’
Tina then stood up and walked away from Scott leaving him to think about his actions while sitting on his beanbag alone.
However, after airing their feelings, Scott and Tina made up and seemed to be on moving forward from the situation, with Scott explaining he still wanted to get to know her.
