‘I’m not ready’: Demi shares sad reason she refused to return to Love Island All Stars

‘I could not get myself back in a bikini’


Love Island icon Demi has opened up about the sad reason she refused to go back to the Love Island: All Stars villa.

Demi Jones already slayed on Love Island: All Stars once, back in 2024. She coupled up with Chris Taylor, but was dumped after a week. Apparently, ITV asked her to return to All Stars as a bombshell this year, but she refused.

She found her stint on All Stars 2024 way harder than her original appearance on Love Island in 2020. Demi explained on the Spill With Will podcast: “It’s a very [incestuous] Love Island family. All the people you meet, you’ve either done something with already, or your best made has, and it’s like, ‘Well, I can’t go there now.'”

She gave the producers another reason for why she didn’t want to be on Love Island: All Stars. “I was like, ‘Honeys, I’m not a size eight anymore. I’m not ready to get back in that bikini.’ She added, ‘You’re sat there with a bikini on, and your hair is growing back, and you’re like, ‘Damn, this is hard.'”

Demi said that lots of her friends are using weight loss injections such as Ozempic and Mounjaro. “I feel like my body image dysmorphia has got worse since people are doing that… I go to these parties, and it has made me feel self-conscious.”

Demi might be up for returning to the Love Island villa in the future, but she doesn’t have “the mentality of going through it again” right now.
