The Love Island Games<\/a> season two cast has finally been announced, and whilst the fake leaked version was definitely better<\/a>, there are still some icons in the lineup.<\/p>\n

However, for some of the cast it’s been years since they were last in the villa, so let’s have a look at how different they look in their new promo pics for Love Island Games compared to the ones for their original season.<\/p>\n

Charlie Georgiou<\/h2>\n

It’s truly amazing what some facial hair and a necklace does, as I think Charlie looks so different in his Love Island Games cast promo picture. And bare in mind his season seven picture on the left was taken just a few months ago!<\/p>\n

Sol\u00e8ne Favreau<\/h2>\n

Sol\u00e9ne starred in Season three of Love Island France during summer 2023 where landed in third place alongside Nicol\u00f2 Ferrari, but the two broke up soon after.<\/p>\n

She most recently starred\u00a0 on Bravo’s Below Deck Season 12 as a baby stew, but she hasn’t exactly made the best impression on the show, and has been told she has an “appalling work ethic.”<\/p>\n

Nicola Gauci Borda-Warr<\/h2>\n

Nicola came in fourth place alongside partner Dale Mallia during season one of Love Island Malta in 2023, with the pair splitting the following year.<\/p>\n

I don’t know why but her cast promo picture for Love Island Games is reminding me of Charli D’Amelio.<\/p>\n

Garbi Denteh<\/h2>\n

Garbi came in second place during the first season of Love Island Belgium, and honestly that new fringe looks absolutely stunning on her.<\/p>\n

Andrea Carmona<\/h2>\n

Andrea made quite a stir during season six of Love Island USA, turning Rob Rausch’s head but in a huge twist was then sent home by her fellow co-stars.<\/p>\n

Andreina Santos<\/h2>\n

Andreina also appeared on the most recent of Love Island USA just a couple of months ago, and she still looks just as stunning for her Love Island Games cast promo picture as she did in her original.<\/p>\n

Kay Kay Gray<\/h2>\n

Kay Kay starred in season five of Love Island USA and she chose to leave the villa altogether when her partner was dumped, but the pair split just a few months later.<\/p>\n

Lucinda Strafford<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Lucinda is an old hand at Love Island at this point, and has already appeared in two of the other Love Island series.<\/p>\n

She left the UK series single in season seven, but found love in the Australian version with Zac Nunns, but the pair split up just two months after being crowned as runner ups.<\/p>\n

She’s been open about having work done since her first time in the villa, so she’s had one of the biggest transformations out of the Love Island Games cast.<\/p>\n

Mert Okatan<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Mert is also a series regular at this point, having won the second season of Love Island Belgium and then reappeared two years later in season three as a Casa Amor bombshell. Something about his transformation is giving finance bro in a menacing way.<\/p>\n

Chris Seeley<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Chris is another Love Island USA star we only just saw the back of, with him and his partner Huda literally breaking up during their finale date on the show<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If I said he looks a bit better in his season seven promo pic than his new Love Island Games one…<\/p>\n

Tyrique Hyde<\/h2>\n
\"\"

If you haven’t watched season 10 of Love Island UK with Tyrique, you are simply not prepared for the menace that is Tyrique. He looks virtually the same, aside from a pretty noticeable new set of tattoos.<\/p>\n

Josh Goldstein<\/h2>\n
\"\"
Via Peacock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Josh and his partner Shannon were one of the strongest couples during season three of Love Island USA, and even became official.<\/p>\n

However, he tragically had to leave the villa early after he found out the heartbreaking news that his sister had passed away whilst he was filming.<\/p>\n

Isaiah Campbell<\/h2>\n
\"\"

Isaiah made it all the way to the finale of Love Island USA, and this man genuinely looks the exact same as he did three years ago.<\/p>\n

Kendall Washington<\/h2>\n
\"\"
Via Peacock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And last but not at all least is Kendall, who declared his love for Nicole during season six of Love Island USA, however the two sadly spplit just tow days after the reunion aired.<\/p>\n

Plus, this time around he even has a K initial necklace on, just in case you need reminding who he is.<\/p>\n
