This new feature seems to have stemmed from the drama that ensued during Love Island series 11 last summer when the likes of Samantha Kenny, Jess White, Wil Anderson and Grace Jackson all returned to confront the remaining cast and chose who was dumped from the island in the very final dumping of that series.

“Love Island All Stars” has returned for its second season, bringing all sorts of drama to the screen in the name of love. The "Love Island" spinoff, which premiered in 2024, gives fan favorites and "villains" from the flagship British series a second chance at love in the villa.

Past islanders like Leanne Amaning, Lucinda Strafford and Scott van-der-Sluis quit Love Island All Stars before entering the villa despite heading to South Africa for the show.

The Waterloo Road star told Good Morning Britain the ITV dating show expects people to fall in love too soon and his brother is at a different time of life now.
