Olivia Hawkins

Olivia Hawkins who was branded a villain by viewers is also set to join the cast after dividing opinion their first time on the ITV dating show.

The brunette beauty and former ring girl was a contestant in the 2023 winter series, where she brought drama to the villa and came to blows with several castmates.

Olivia has previously said that she had received a torrent of online abuse and even death threats when she was dumped from the villa.

She came under fire during her time on the show with viewers claiming ‘the witch is finally gone’ after she was voted out.

Olivia was also branded the ‘villa schemer’ during drama filled scenes as she clashed with fellow contestants.

During her time on the show, Olivia feuded with Zara Lackenby-Brown, and Tanyel Raven. She also fell out with Sanam Harrinanan after she coupled up with Kai Fagan in Casa Amor – despite Olivia also recoupling.

Olivia left the show paired up with Maxwell Samuda but they split shortly after filming wrapped.

She is now keen to dispel some misconceptions with her return to the villa, explaining: ‘People misinterpret my honesty and how real I am. I think I am just very honest and upfront – and people take it the wrong way.’

‘Maybe sometimes I do need to keep my opinions to myself but, I’m unapologetically myself. You can never please everyone and I’m OK with being a marmite character.’

‘I’m still single and getting close to my thirties, I feel ready for it now. I’m ready to meet a nice man.’

Curtis Pritchard

Curtis, who first appeared in the show back in 2019, is also lined-up with the news reportedly leaving his ex Maura Higgins ‘worried’ he might spill secrets about their past relationship.

‘I feel like I’m in a different stage in my life,’ Curtis explains. ‘The idea of settling down is a serious idea in my life right now. I haven’t found my true love… that sounds so cheesy doesn’t it.’

‘So, I thought, let’s give it another go. It was great fun last time; a lot of emotions. I feel excited to go back. I’m going to have a great fun time and hopefully leave with someone. It’s exciting.’

Curtis admitted there is one key moment from his last appearance on the show that ‘follows me evberywhere’ – his infamous ‘making coffee in the morning.’

He quipped that he will be taking some advice from his villa ex Amy Hart, admitting ‘in hindsight, if I do find a girl this time, I will perhaps cuddle her in bed rather than make coffee… so Amy taught me a lesson.’

The I’m A Celeb star, 34, and professional dancer, 28, first connected in the villa, where the pair ended up finishing in fourth place.

Despite their initial spark, the romance fizzled out and they parted ways just eight months later amid rumours of infidelity on both sides – allegations they have both denied.

While Maura recently made a splash on TV with her stint in the jungle – where she spoke candidly about dating TOWIE star Pete Wicks, Curtis is also set for his soon his own comeback in the spotlight.

A source told The Sun: ‘Curtis signing for All Stars is more than awkward for Maura just as she’s fallen for Pete and they’ve finally gone public with their love.

‘Her break-up with Curtis wasn’t the best and Maura always worried he’d be the ex that could blab. It’s also less than ideal when she’s hoping to build on her I’m A Celebrity profile and advance her career.

It comes after Maura discussed her experience on Love Island on Paul C Brunson’s We Need To Talk podcast.

Speaking about her ex Curtis, she described him as a ‘why not’ man, explaining she only dated him due to there being limited options in the villa.

She said: ‘When you’re locked in a house, I say locked but you’re in a house and you’re in there for X amount of time. You’re going to start liking people that you wouldn’t normally like.

‘Not to be mean but you are, you’re in there. I’m pretty sure it would probably be the same on Big Brother. You’re locked in a house; you’re not seeing any other men. You’re going to be like ‘why not’.

Gabby Allen

Gabby Allen is set to make waves with her return- a move that could reignite past tensions with Jacqueline Jossa and her husband, Dan Osborne.

The returnee admitted she is making her island comeback ‘because it’s the trenches out there! I feel like I have all my ducks in a row, it has been 8 years since I went into the Villa. I now run my businesses and I’ve grown up a lot… but I just haven’t found ‘the one’ yet.’

‘I was 25 when I did the show last time. I’m so glad that I did go on at that age because I’d done so much before that, I’d travelled, lost my dad, had turbulent relationships all before going in.’

‘I’d also been on a journey to become a fitness instructor so I felt really confident going in at 25.’

‘But now I look back, I feel like I am now, who I thought I was then. I’m confident in who I am as a person and hopefully that will help me meet someone, because I know what I want and I don’t want to settle.’

The stunner, 32, rose to fame in 2017 when she came fourth alongside Blazin’ Squad’s Marcel Somerville on the reality dating show.

However, a year later, she hit headlines after being linked to Dan, 33, following pictures of the pair getting close on a yacht in Marbella.

The alleged flirtation caused a rift between Dan and Jacqueline, with the EastEnders actress briefly leaving him after discovering a flirty message he’d sent to Gabby.

Although Gabby and Dan have both denied any wrongdoing, the incident saw Gabby labeled ‘the other woman’ – a tag that Jacqueline, 32, struggled with at the time.

The couple eventually reconciled and are now raising their daughters Ella, nine, and Mia, five, alongside Dan’s son Teddy, ten, from a previous relationship.

Gabby’s return to the screen, however, could dredge up old memories. A source revealed to The Sun: ‘Gabby being back in the spotlight is the last thing Jac and Dan need and will no doubt bring back memories for Jac.

‘Gabby did not reply to the message, but has been seen as ‘the other woman.’

An ITV spokesperson played it coy, stating: ‘Any names suggested are speculation until our official line-up is announced.’

The All Stars series, filmed in Cape Town, South Africa, sees previous contestants from across the show’s series mixed together in a bid to give them a second chance at love.

Kaz Crossley

Kaz has also been confirmed as the second star set to appear on the latest series of Love Island All Stars, ahead of next week’s launch.

The reality star, 30, appeared on the ITV reality show in 2018, where she reached the final and finished in third place with Josh Denzel.

Kaz admitted: ‘The first experience I had was so amazing and also so much fun! I’m even more mature now so I’m ready to find a relationship.’

She even confessed that she is ‘excited’ to see some familar faces in the villa, adding ‘but I love surprises so I hope I’m surprised in there! It’ll be nice to mingle with people from different series, especially as series 4 was so long ago now. If I see some faces I recognise, I’ll be really happy.’

The makeup artist’s return to the show comes after she hit the headlines in February 2023, when she was questioned and held in prison in the United Arab Emirates on suspicion of drug offences.

A source told The Sun that she was ‘thrilled’ to be returning to the villa, saying: ‘She had a rough time a year or so ago and this feels like an amazing opportunity for her to have some fun again.’

Kaz first appeared on series four of Love Island as a Casa Amor bombshell, and famously turned Josh’s head away from his then-partner Georgia Steel.

The makeup artist’s return to the show comes after she hit the headlines in February 2023, when she was questioned and held in prison in the United Arab Emirates on suspicion of drug offences

After the show the pair went on to date for six months, before eventually splitting in January 2019 with Kaz saying at the time: ‘Sometimes things don’t go the way you planned, but you have to be grateful for the journey.’

She soon sparked up a romance with fellow Love Island alum Theo Campbell in March that year, but in early 2020 he revealed he had been dumped ahead of what would have been their one-year anniversary.

The pair then suffered an awkward reunion after they both appeared on Celebrity Ex On The Beach in 2022.

Scott Thomas

Scott is following in ex Katy McDermott’s footsteps who returned to the iconic villa as a bombshell in 2023.

The couple, who met during the 2016 series, were together for over a year, with Kady moving to Manchester to be with Scott, whose brothers are soap actors Ryan, famed for his role on Coronation Street and Adam, who starred on Emmerdale.

Scott now runs his own talent agency, The Social PR, and he hasn’t publicly dated anyone since Kady.

Scott explained of his motivations for his return: ‘I’ve been on a massive journey over the last five years; I’ve been working on sobriety, personal growth, self development, when I first went into the Villa I was still a bit of a boy…’

‘I feel like I finally know who I am. It might sound cheesy, but I’m ready to settle down and I’ve never been open to saying those words. Where better than Love Island?’

He gushed that his brother Adam’s relationship with his wife Caroline is the relationship he would like to emulate, explaining: ‘They have an amazing relationship. I always say I want to find ‘my Caroline’.’

‘They are still madly in love. Also watching Sophie (Piper) and Josh (Ritchie) from All Stars 1 having belly laughs was great as well.’

Catherine Agbaje

Following her 2023 summer stint in the villa Catherine seemingly came close to appearing in the very first All stars series just a few months later.

Catherine left the villa alongside her love interest Elom Ahlijah-Wilson after they found themselves in the bottom three following a public vote before splitting.

At the time fans speculated that the stunner was in the line-up for the new show after she dropped a major clue on Instagram.

Viewers spotted Catherine recently followed a make-up artist who ‘happens to work on the show’ and fans took to Reddit to spark speculation amongst each other.

One wrote: ‘Why do i feel like catherine is going on all stars lol’. ‘I wonder if she’ll be on All-Stars seems like she’s getting in time with friends now before being away for a while.’ ‘I had this feeling too because Catherine has been so quiet recently. Plus, I think that she recently followed a make up artist who I think works on Love Island.’

And now she has been confirmed for this year’s All Stars, gushing: ‘I want to find love again, I want to give it another shot because it works!’

Nas Majeed

Nas will be entering the villa almost a year after splitting from girlfriend Eva Zapico four years after they met in the villa.

The couple found love during first edition of Winter Love Island in 2020 and after a slow start to becoming official – only making each other boyfriend and girlfriend six months after leaving the show – they went from strength to strength, even sparking engagement rumours.

But when they parted ways in March 2024 Nas revealed in an instagram statment that the split was a ‘mutual and completely amicable decision’

Nas, pictured (left) on the show in 2020, said ‘it was so much fun the first time around, waking up every day with a smile on my face – it feels like a full circle moment’

He wrote: ‘Unfortunately, Eva and I have decided to end out relationship. There is no bad blood or wrong doing – it was a mutual and completely amicable decision.’

Nas revealed the pair had been trying to work through their problems for the last few months, but have now decided to officially call time on their relationship.

On his motivation to return he said ‘it was so much fun the first time around, waking up every day with a smile on my face – it feels like a full circle moment.’

‘It was quite successful for me the first time around, I was with Eva for four years. So I’m hoping that Love Island can come through again and make it everlasting.’

When asked what green flags he looks for Nas explained: ‘Someone who can make me laugh… although I feel like I laugh at everything!’

‘Someone kind, considerate, and caring – it’s fundamental stuff. Someone who can match my high energy, being silly and goofy, but also enjoy chilling and going to garden centres. Clubcards… I can’t wait to get one of those and start collecting points with someone.’

Ronnie Vint

Another newly-single contestant will be footballer Ronnie who split from Harriett Blackmore late last year mid cheating claims.

Just weeks after leaving the villa, the couple were said to have gone their separate ways following an apparent huge row.

Ronnie, 28, and Harriett, 24, endured a tumultuous time during their stint on the ITV2 show as they faced a number of love triangles, but soon found their way back together.

Speaking about his return Ronnie said: ‘I learnt so much from my experience last time. I left with Harriett and from the time we left, I thought it was going well, but obviously it ended’

However, it appears the love story is all over as The Sun reports that they’ve gone their separate ways due to them being ‘so busy’ and unable to ‘dedicate’ enough time to their relationship.

A source said: ‘They tried to make it work outside the villa but both have been so busy since getting home they’ve not been able to dedicate enough time to it.’

The publication went on to report that prior to their split, the couple had been heard arguing on the phone, with Ronnie said to be ‘fuming’ at Harriett for arriving late to his recent launch party.

MailOnline have contacted representatives of Ronnie and Harriett for comment at the time.

The split comes after the pair were embroiled in cheating rumours just days after reuniting outside the villa.

It is said that Ronnie was reportedly ‘playing the field’ shortly after his exit from the Spanish villa.

Speaking about his return Ronnie said: ‘I learnt so much from my experience last time. I left with Harriett and from the time we left, I thought it was going well, but obviously it ended.’

‘In the Villa I was always in ‘triangles’ and what not, but I feel like I’ve grown up a lot since then. You have to wise up. So, not in a bad way to Harriett, but I’m in a good position to find someone now and move on.’

India Reynolds

India Reynolds first appeared on the hit ITV show on series five in 2019 where she finished third place with basketball player Ovie Soko and has reportledy tocuhed down in South Africa.

The couple had a short-lived romance and eventually split just four months after leaving the villa.

And now reports emerged that the influencer, 34, has already touched down in South Africa to film – where she is in hiding ahead of shaking things up once again, The Sun reports.

India admitted she was ready for love again, spilling ahead of her villa return: ‘I’ve been single for two and a half years and I think it’s time to settle down.’

‘I don’t put any effort into dating and I don’t really like meeting people from apps so I’m looking forward to getting to know people in the Villa.’

On the show two years ago he met influencer Gemma Owen, 21, – the daughter of former footballer Michael – but the pair separated a few months after coming in as runners up.

The Sun claims Gemma is dreading he will talk about the breakup on the show – which will once again be hosted by presenter Maya Jama.

A source said: ‘This is the last thing Gemma wants because in the last year she’s tried to keep her personal life private.

‘Their break-up was shrouded in secrecy and neither has discussed it, but it did not end well.

Luca was accused by some viewers of controlling behaviour towards Gemma during their time on the show

‘He hinted he was blindsided by the break-up when she posted it online and this is his time to spill the beans.’

Luca was accused by some viewers of controlling behaviour towards Gemma during their time on the show.

After they returned to the UK he apologised for some of his actions and revealed he ‘didn’t recognise himself’ when looking back at himself on TV.

He was accused of misogyny and ‘controlling behaviour’ towards the then 19-year-old with viewers even complaining to Ofcom.

Luca said he was going back to the villa with a new mindset, explaining: ‘I had such a good time last time, why not? I get to have a good time with the possibility of ending up with someone.’

‘It taught me so much about myself, especially as I can go back and watch it. It’s good to reflect. I think that it’s not the mistakes that define us, it’s the lessons and what we learn from them that makes us.’

Marcel Sommerville

Gabby Allen’s ex and former Blazin’ Squad Marcel is also hoping to find love following his split last year from cheating wife Rebecca Vieira – to whom he is still legally married.

Model Rebecca who tied the knot with the rapper in August 2022, was reported to have sent flirty texts to have sent US rapper Slim Jxmmi behind her husband’s back.

Marcel ‘moved out of their family home’ and deleted all traces of her on social media before telling MailOnline in June last year that he and his wife were still together and looking to the future.

Asked about his relationship status, Marcel, 39, said: ‘I’ve gone through a little bit of a crazy time in my life.

‘I’ll talk more about it at a later time, as I’m not really ready to talk about what’s going on right now. We’re working through the situation to get the best outcome that we can.’

Marcel said of his return: ‘I thought that I’d completed love and found my happily ever after – but the universe had a different plan.’

‘Somehow every time my life’s at a crossroads, I’ve got the opportunity to do Love Island. So I thought, why not?

‘In my series I was deemed ‘Dr Marcel’, I was giving everyone love advice. Since the show, I’ve gone through a lot of situations in life and in love so I’ve topped up my knowledge… but I feel like maybe I need to take some advice when it comes to love this time round as well.’
