All the iconic Love Island girlies lined-up for a second shot in the All Stars villa

All Stars is creeping up on us, and already there are loads of rumoured Islanders who are believed to be eyeing up the show. All Stars will be back in early 2025, with Maya Jama heading to the South Africa villa to host. Some of our fav girls from Love Island series over the years are in talks for All Stars, meaning it could be a very exciting dynamic.

It was previously rumoured that 2024’s Grace Jackson was going on All Stars, and now her romance with Marcus Rashford is done and dusted, it looks like we’ll be seeing her in the villa alongside some previous winners and real drama starters who will provide chaos in the villa.

So, who are the girls being lined up for another chance on Love Island All Stars? Here’s everyone we know so far.

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu

It’s been a real back and forth with it looking like Ekin wants nothing to do with All Stars, to her name coming back up in rumoured Islander lists. But since then, her name is the first to apparently be officially confirmed!

According to MailOnline, Ekin-Su’s “deal is agreed in principle, there’s still some details to sort out”. A source added: “But there’s huge hope she’s finally agreed to take a second chance at finding long-lasting love in front of the nation.”

Grace Jackson

News of Grace’s relationship with Marcus Rashford shocked us all, especially seeing as they were reported to have been dating for months?! 

Just when we thought she had dodged the All Stars villa, it turns out Grace has dumped the Manchester United footballer for another go on the show.

A source told The Sun: “Grace realised that Marcus wasn’t serious about her and has unfollowed him on Instagram. She realised there was no future so she has decided to cut ties.

“When the opportunity arose to take part in Love Island All Stars this winter Grace jumped at the chance.

“If she finds love on the show that’s a bonus, especially since she didn’t meet a suitable match in the summer. As far as she is concerned it’s Marcus’ loss, she is putting her best foot forward and can’t wait to enjoy some winter sun in gloomy January.”

Gemma Owen

After Ekin, Gemma Owen looks like the most certain to return, as it’s been reported she’s agreed to be part of the next All Stars. In 2022, Gemma and Luca made it to the final, but announced they had split up just three months later.

A source told The Sun Gemma’s dad, Michael Owen, is “bracing himself” for his daughter to go on the show again, which she sees as a great “money making opportunity.” Luca is apparently coming back too – which could be wild.

Olivia Hawkins

Olivia, who was first on the winter 2023 series, was rumoured for All Stars earlier this year. That clearly didn’t happen, but her name is around once again. She was backed as a villain in the South Africa villa, and now it seems the show wants that back.

A source told The Sun: “Olivia was the breakout star of her series – love her or loathe her, fans couldn’t stop talking about her. Bosses have been keen to get her to sign up for the next series of All Stars.

“She was almost in the mix for the last All Stars in January and it didn’t quite work out, but this time around she is at the top of the wish list. Producers are confident she will bring plenty of drama and conflict, which is just what viewers want.”

Lucinda Strafford

It’s been reported Lucinda is heading to All Stars, after failing to find love on the 2021 series, and then on the Australian show.

She broke up with DJ Nathan Dawe earlier this year, just weeks after they went public with what had been reported as a pretty on-and-off romance. This came just two months after her messy breakup with Zac Nunns, who she met on the Australian show.

A source told The Sun: “Lucinda has had her fair share of heartbreak this year, and she’s looking for a fresh chance at love. Hopefully the man of her dreams will be in the Love Island villa as she wants 2025 to be a new start for her romantically.”

Paige Thorne

Love Island 2022’s Paige is also in talks, following failed villa romances with Jacques O’Neill and Adam Collard. “Paige was in talks to do All Stars earlier this year, but things didn’t quite work out, and she didn’t make the final cut,” a source has said.

“This time around, producers are really keen to have her back. They think she is the perfect addition to spice things up. She’s stunning, who could forget her turning lothario Adam Collard’s head, and she gets involved in drama. So they’re confident she will deliver.”

India Reynolds

India from the 2019 series is also rumoured to be in talks about returning for Love Island All Stars. She left the show in the final with Ovie, and in an interview said she’s thinking of coming back.

Speaking to The Sun, India said: “I’m so on the fence, I’m a never say never person. I feel like I’m a little bit older now, when I did it it was five years ago now. I think I’d be a little bit different. I’ve been single for two years, I enjoy it…I haven’t really dated anyone seriously in that time.

“As much as I would love to find someone, I can’t say I’ve been putting that much time into doing it. But maybe Love Island would be the right thing because then you’re shoved with a load of people.”

Anna Vakili

Anna hasn’t confirmed anything, but has said in an interview she’s keen to give the villa another go. During an appearance on the Not My Bagg podcast, she was asked: “Have you thought about it [going on All Stars]?” Anna replied: “I have thought about it. I’m single now, you know. Technically I could.”

Tanya Manhenga

Tanya from winter Love Island 2023 is also apparently in talks, following her pretty secretive split from Shaq. Tanya and Shaq were finalists on the winter version of Love Island in 2023, but broke up earlier this year.

A source told The Sun it’s “early talks” but Tanya is lined up to return to the villa. “She genuinely wants to find love,” they added.
