Love Island star Anton Danyluk sparks feud over Molly Smith and Tom Clare’s wedding remarks

It looks like Love Island tea is piping hot once again - but not with any of this year’s castmates, as this time the drama is surrounding All Stars rivals Anton Danyluk and Mitch Taylor - and the pair have clashed over Molly and Tom Clare’s recent wedding.

Anton, 31, who now has his own business as a fitness coach, first took part in season five of the ITV dating show in 2019, before returning for a second go at finding love in 2024.

Meanwhile, Mitch, 30, tried his chances back to back - first in the 2023 summer series, before joining the same All Stars cast as Anton less than a year later.

It’s no secret that the pair didn’t exactly get on, and it looks like their messy feud is continuing, as Mitch branded Anton as ‘weird’ after he publicly spoke out about why he chose not to attend Tom and Molly’s big day.

Molly, 32, and Tom, 26, tied the knot in a stunning Mallorcan ceremony over the weekend, following their initial courthouse wedding in June.

However, on Sunday (23 August) before they even shared any pictures from their nuptials, Anton had already taken to Instagram to explain why he didn’t attend.

Writing over a photo of himself and Tom, Anton penned: “Tom and Molly got married yesterday. I wish I’d been there. Here’s why I wasn’t.

“At the start of the year I got invited. And it was an honour, because these two are genuinely my favourite people that came off the show.

“But I turned it down. And it wasn’t an easy decision. Because at the time I was invited, I’d just made the decision to stop drinking.”

He recalled: “I went five months this year with no alcohol. And honestly, I felt amazing. But what I realised in those five months was that drinking was never really the problem. The problem was knowing when to stop.”

In the lengthy post, he continued to explain how he now ‘drinks on the odd occasion’ and that ‘looking back, if I knew then what I knew now, I’d have gone’.

“But here’s the thing,” he wrote, “At the time, I had to say no in order to learn that. I couldn’t have known it without stopping first.”

The Love Island alum signed off with: “Congratulations, you two. I’m gutted I missed it, but I couldn’t be happier for you.”

Social media users have been left a bit baffled by the post, with some accusing Anton of 'making the wedding about himself'.

Among them was, you guessed it, Mitch, who wrote: “Give it a rest Anton pal, this is weird.”

One person chimed in with: “Surely they should announce their own wedding first? Do you feel good that you got to be first? Wow.”

While one disappointed fan quipped: “Final nail in the coffin... Unfollowed! Talk about living off the back of other people's fame…”

Another user agreed: “How do I make this about me.”

And someone else quipped: “This is such a bizarre post, and I don’t think they’d agree with this either.”

However, others responded to the post with support, with one fan writing: “Completely understand where you are coming from, sometimes you have to make a difficult choice to then learn what's right for you, sounds like you did and you are stronger for it.”

Another commented: “I totally get this. I do exactly the same. You have to look out for yourself.”
