Love Island: All Stars Season 2 aired a new episode on February 14, 2025. It saw the couples celebrate Valentine's Day by going on self-prepared dates. During those dates, the islanders discussed their connections and the future of their relationships. While most couples were showcased having deep conversations, netizens claimed only a brief segment of Omar and Catherine's date was aired.
Omar told Catherine his cousin looked forward to meeting her and introducing her to the rest of the family. Hearing that, Catherine confessed she could not wait to be around his family.
"Moving forward, like, I know we're closed off. Me and you against the world," Omar added.
Besides that brief conversation comprising those sentences, nothing more was shown about their date. The couple was later nominated for elimination alongside Ronnie and Harriett, and Elma and Sammy having received the fewest votes from the public.
