Maya Jama's Dilemma: Love Island or Man Utd Match?
20 Nov
Summary
- Love Island All Stars final scheduled for February 23, 2026.
- Dias's team, Man City, faces a packed schedule with key matches.
- Maya Jama plans to fly back from Cape Town around ITV's schedule.

Maya Jama will have a reduced presence in the luxurious surroundings of Cape Town for the upcoming Love Island All Stars season. The spin-off show is slated for an extended six-week run, concluding on February 23, 2026. Jama's desire to remain close to her partner, Ruben Dias, poses a challenge as he will be occupied with Manchester City's demanding schedule across multiple competitions.
Given Dias's commitments, any necessary recouplings for the show will have to occur on British soil. A source indicated that Jama and Dias are keen to see each other during the filming period. Dias is unlikely to travel to Cape Town due to his training and City's packed fixture list, prompting Jama to plan return trips to the UK around her filming obligations.
Jama is set to depart for Cape Town in the first week of January for the show's January 10th premiere. This coincides with a crucial Premier League derby match for Dias's team against Manchester United. Manchester City also has two Champions League fixtures and a potential FA Cup match during the show's run, alongside challenging domestic games against top clubs.
