The lineup for Love Island: All Stars promises plenty of drama, with two past winners, two contestants with famous parents, and a familiar face still dealing with a messy breakup all set to appear.
Millie Court, age 29, won the ITV2 show in 2021 with her then-boyfriend, Liam Reardon. She’s back after the couple officially broke up in September, ending their complicated relationship.
She’s also celebrating with Jess Harding, age 25, who won the £50,000 prize last year. However, Jess’s relationship with her boyfriend, Sammy Root, didn’t last – they broke up only two months after leaving the show.
Whitney Adebayo, age 28, almost won the competition the year she and Lochan Nowacki finished as finalists. However, to everyone’s surprise, the couple broke up in 2025 after two years together, and the split was reportedly contentious.
The influencer claimed her former partner made racist comments while they were together. He strongly denied these claims and then sued her for defamation.
Whitney is back and hoping to find lasting love! The Daily Mail has announced she’ll be joining 11 other Islanders in South Africa next week, alongside host Maya Jama, to finish the cast for the new All-Stars season.
Millie Court
Millie, from Essex, and Liam, from Wales, quickly became popular with viewers when they won in 2021. People were especially invested in their relationship, and they even started a podcast together as a couple.
After winning, the two remained a team for a year before deciding to pursue separate paths.
Following their breakup, Liam joined the reality show Celebs Go Dating, and Millie was rumored to be dating George Baggs from Gogglebox.
People began to wonder if Millie and Liam were back together after they were seen on vacation in the Lake District during the Easter holiday weekend.
Okay, so they did get back together, which was amazing, but then… September happened, and it was over again. Honestly, it’s crushing. And now, get this – Liam’s already posting super vague, but totally flirty stuff on Instagram! Everyone’s saying he’s seeing someone new. A mystery woman! It’s like, can a girl not catch a break?! I’m trying to stay positive, but it’s hard seeing him move on so quickly.
Even though Millie and Liam haven’t officially confirmed they’re together, there’s a chance they might unexpectedly cross paths, which could be a little awkward.
Similar to Molly Smith from Love Island, who had an uncomfortable encounter with her former partner on All Stars, Millie might be looking for a fresh start, a new relationship, and lasting love.
Jack Keating
Ronan Keating, the singer from Boyzone, has a son named Jack who is going back on the reality show Love Island. He was on the show before in 2022, but didn’t find a romantic connection.
Oh my gosh, when he arrived in Casa Amor, everything changed! He instantly stirred things up between Gemma and Luca, you could just feel the drama! It was amazing…but sadly, it wasn’t meant to be. He didn’t make it out of the villa, and honestly, I was devastated!
Jack became a dad in March 2023 and is now looking for a partner who appreciates the commitments that come with parenthood.
People were surprised when he revealed he and his partner were expecting a baby named Maya, not long after being on the show. Many initially thought Maya had been conceived before he went on the program.
He told the Daily Mail in May 2024 that he became a father seven months after leaving Love Island, and wasn’t aware he was going to be a dad while on the show.
Jack has returned and is looking for love in the villa, all while juggling the responsibilities of being a dad. He’s hoping this time, he’ll find a lasting connection.
Whitney Adebayo
Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowack’s breakup on Love Island was one of the show’s most dramatic.
After two years together, the couple broke up following accusations from Whitney that Lochan had made racist remarks, specifically calling her skin ‘dirty’.
Whitney’s sister supported her story by sharing screenshots of text messages allegedly from Lochan. In those messages, he reportedly admitted to making an inappropriate joke and apologized, saying he didn’t realize how hurtful it was and that Whitney now feels unable to look at him the same way.
After the situation became public, Lochan claimed the accusations were false and reportedly sued Whitney for defamation, following online attacks from her supporters.
Whitney, known from the Netflix show Inside, and Lochan came to an agreement in December 2025.
With Whitney back on TV, producers are eager for her to discuss what really happened when she and her partner split, hoping to shed light on one of the show’s most famous breakups.
Helena Ford
Fresh from the Mallorca villa, Helena Ford is making a return to Love Island.
The contestant was eliminated from the show after her ex, Harry Cooksley, started a relationship with Shakira Khan and is still with her now.
Helena was deeply hurt when she discovered Harry didn’t feel the same way about her. This, combined with viewers believing she and Blu Chegini weren’t a good match, led to both of them being eliminated from the show.
Viewers criticised Harry for how he treated Helena, believing she put up with his unenthusiastic attitude towards their relationship and his flirting with other women in the villa.
After the show ended, Helena explained that she was more upset about losing their friendship than the romantic relationship. They had a strong connection, and she hoped they could still be in each other’s lives without awkwardness.
The former flight attendant is looking for love as she joins the show’s villa in South Africa.
Tommy Bradley
Tommy Bradley will reunite with his former co-star, Helena, on the show All Stars, continuing their collaboration from last summer’s series.
Everyone predicted Tommy would win after he and Megan Clarke became a couple, but Megan soon lost interest and started dating Conor Phillips, an Irishman, with whom she celebrated her first Christmas.
Tommy seemed to become interested in Emily Moran, a contestant from Wales, but she was upset when he pursued a relationship with Lucy Quinn after meeting her on the show.
Tommy and Lucy broke up soon after leaving the villa when Tommy confessed to being unfaithful with Dani Imbert, a star from TOWIE. At the same event, Dani also kissed another contestant, Ben Holbrough.
Tommy is back on the show with a fresh perspective. He’s learned from his past experiences and is ready to try at love again.
Charlie Frederick
As a lifestyle enthusiast, I often find myself reflecting on pop culture moments, and one that springs to mind is Charlie Frederick from Love Island back in 2018. If you watched the show, you might remember him!
Let’s talk about Charlie! Before he became a household name on the show, he actually dated Lucie Donlan, another Islander. Sadly, his time in the villa didn’t last very long, but it definitely created some buzz!
He was previously eliminated from the show with Hayley Hughes, but after seven years, he’s unexpectedly coming back.
Charlie has experience with reality television, previously appearing on the E4 show Made In Chelsea in 2020.
You might hardly recognize Charlie from when he was first on the show – he’s been hitting the gym and has gotten much more muscular.
Belle Hassan
Belle Hassan, age 27, was among the first contestants on the ITV2 dating show Love Island to come from a famous family.
Her father, Tamer Hassan, is a well-known actor in British gangster films, famously appearing with Danny Dyer in the 2005 movie The Business. Interestingly, Danny Dyer’s daughter, Dani, was also a contestant on Love Island.
Similar to her father, this makeup artist didn’t tolerate any drama while on the show. She became close to Anton Danyluk, who had faced rejection from other contestants before she joined the villa later in the season.
Despite a brief flirtation with a checkout girl during a night out with friends, Anton managed to weather the fallout and stay with Belle.
They came in fifth place, just missing the chance to win after Amber Gill and Greg O’Shea took the top spot.
The couple broke up just weeks after getting back home, with reports suggesting Belle ended the relationship because of Anton’s infidelity.
Jess Harding
Jess Harding won Love Island in 2023 alongside Sammy Root, but their romance was short-lived.
Only two months after surprisingly winning the competition – despite many people expecting Whitney and Lochan to succeed – the pair decided to separate.
Sammy went on to appear on TOWIE, where he met Essex star and former Islander Elma Pazar.
They connected again on last season’s All Stars, reaching the final round and then dating for a few months.
Their eight-year age difference ultimately created problems, leading to significant arguments while filming the show TOWIE in Portugal.
Until last summer, Jess was dating someone she kept largely private. She occasionally shared photos of him on Instagram, but always without revealing who he was.
Sean Stone
Sweet salesman Sean Stone is heading back into the villa for a second chance at love.
Oh my gosh, he made it to the finale with Matilda! I was so rooting for them! It’s just… heartbreaking that they broke up right after the show ended. Seriously, I was convinced they were meant to be, but sadly, it wasn’t meant to last. It still makes me so sad thinking about it!
Matilda isn’t expected to surprise Sean by joining the show, as she’s currently dating Roman Hackett from TOWIE.
During his time on Love Island, Sean clashed with Joey Essex, moments he says he deeply regrets.
Their actions on the show led to more than 250 complaints to Ofcom, with viewers criticizing them for interfering with the challenge.
Leanne Amaning
Leanne Amaning, age 28, was a contestant on the winter 2020 season of a reality show filmed in South Africa, alongside Molly Smith and Callum Jones, who were dating at the time.
I’m so excited to see her join the show! She almost came on as a surprise contestant last year during All Stars, but decided against it then. Now she’s finally decided to take the plunge, and I can’t wait to see what happens!
Leanne shared on TikTok that she traveled to Cape Town, but decided not to enter the villa because she didn’t feel ready.
She explained: ‘The more the show went on, the less sense it made for me to go in there.’
Leanne started her time on Love Island paired with Mike Boateng, who used to be a police officer, but their relationship didn’t last very long.
Ciaran Davies
Ciaran Davies came in second place on the show in 2024 with Nicole Samuels, but they broke up a few months after the season ended.
Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan won, but their relationship ended soon after the show finished, similar to the fate of the runners-up.
Last year, people began speculating about a romance between Ciaran and Emily Moran, a contestant from the summer 2025 season of a reality show, after they both shared a photo from the same location on Instagram.
Both Emily and her partner are from Wales and didn’t find long-term relationships on the ITV2 dating show. Emily was broken up with by Tommy Bradley after the ‘Casa Amor’ segment of this year’s season.
Shaq Muhammad
Shaq Muhammad is returning to the villa after finding love during his first stint on the show.
As a lifestyle expert, I’ve seen it happen so many times! He and his ex, Tanya, made it all the way to the finals of the show last year, which is a huge accomplishment. But sadly, despite that connection, they decided to go their separate ways back in July. It just goes to show you, even strong connections on TV don’t always translate into long-term relationships.
I’m really excited for Shaq! It’s been a few months since his breakup, and I hear he’s heading back to All Stars hoping to meet someone special. I’m rooting for him to find the woman of his dreams!
The trainer seems to be seriously preparing for his return to training, posting photos of his physique on Instagram to showcase his progress.
