Currently coupled up with: No one (yet!)
This will actually be Curtis's fourth Love Island stint! His original Love Island debut was in season 7 in 2019, where he was coupled up with Maura Higgins, and the pair came fourth. However, their relationship didn't last, and whilst Maura is off attending the Golden Globes, Curtis is back giving love another (fourth) chance, following his appearances on The Games spin-off in 2023 and last year's All Stars.

Age: 26
Original season: 7 (2021)

Currently coupled up with: No one (yet!)
Lucinda is another Love Islander with more than just one previous season under her belt. First appearing in season 7, with fellow islander Millie Court, she failed to make a strong enough connection and was dumped from the island on day 28. After that, she took part in Love Island Australia, finding a strong connection with Zac Nunns and the pair left as runners-up. Finally, Lucinda also took part (and won!) in The Games with partner Isaiah Campbell last year.

She's back! After returning to All Stars last year for a short and sweet appearance that only lasted five days, Samie is returning to the Villa. We first met Samie during season 9 in which she formed a relationship with Tom Clare, however they ended up breaking up. Samie has returned as she felt she didn't get a fair shot last time and wants to show the audience "how much I've grown and hopefully actually see me in a nice situation, coupled up with someone."
Konnor Ewudzi - bombshell

Konnor was on Love Island season 11 and stayed in the Villa for a good few weeks, during which time he got to know Grace, Emma and Lolly, however, he ultimately left the Villa single. He said prior to going into the All Stars Villa he's looking for someone as he turned 30 in November and as been seeing all his friends settle down and he wants the same for himself.
Scott van-der-Sluis - Bombshell

Original season: 10 (2023)

Love Island legend Scott returned to the show during episode one as the first bombshell of the season. This will be his fourth Love Island appearance, after having appeared in his original season in 2023, before then going onto star in Love Island USA and Love Island Games that same summer.
During his original appearance on the show Scott formed a close connection with Catherine, but sadly it wasn't meant to be.
Whitney Adebayo

Season 10 star Whitney is making a comeback on the ITV2 dating show, following her bitter split from her Lochan Nowacki which saw the pair locked in a legal battle.
Asked why she returned to the show, Whit who owns her own wig company, said: "A new start and what better place than home? Back to the Villa! Last year was something… so a fresh start in the place that started it all for new memories and experiences."

Previous winner Millie Court is one of the contestants in this year’s line-up. Back in 2021, she left the villa £25k richer with Liam Reardon by her side. Sadly, the pair split last year, and now Millie is heading back into the villa in search of love once again.
"I felt really grateful to experience the Villa over four years ago - why would I not want to experience it again?" she said.
Belle Hassan
Age: 27
Original season: 5 (2019)
Instagram: bellehassan
Currently coupled up with: Sean Stone
Former season five star Belle Hassan is making a comeback. Back in 2019 she coupled up with Anton Danyluk. Unfortunately they didn't make it to the final and were dumped early on the show. She's hoping things will be different this time round.
"I feel like I’m ready to find me a husband! I’m sick of heartbreak and I’m ready to meet someone new," she said.
Helena Ford
Age: 29

Right off the back off season 12, which aired last year summer, Helena is back and she's ready to find her man this time after her failed on/off relationship with Harry Cooksley.

Jess Harding
Age: 25
Original season: 10 (2023)
Instagram: jesshardingox
Currently coupled up with: Tommy Bradley
Season 10 winner Jess is giving the show another go. She won what is a strong contender for the best series of the ITV show back in 2023, alongside her then-boyfriend Sammy. They later split and he returned for All Stars last year. Now, it's Jess's turn...
"Even though I ended up winning the series with Sammy, I felt like I had a bit of a rocky ride the first time and I feel like I’ve matured a lot more since. I was 22, now I’m 25, I feel like every situation I’ve been in since then has been a lesson in knowing what I want and don’t want. I really want to meet someone and settle down," Jess said ahead of her All Stars debut.
Leanne Amaning
Age: 28
Original season: 6 (2020)
Instagram: leanneamaning
Currently coupled up with: Scott van-der-Sluis
Leanne was part of the first winter series, where she coupled up with Mike, but the pairing didn’t work out and she later left the show. This time around, she’s heading back into the villa with a fresh mindset and ready to give the experience another chance.
"I want to be open in the way that I should have been in series six and the streets are the trenches, so this is the only way to find someone!"
Ciaran Davies
Age: 23
Original season: 11 (2024)
Instagram: ciarandaviesss
Currently coupled up with: Ciaran is currently single
Ciaran entered the villa in 2024 and quickly became a fan favourite, especially alongside Nicole. The pair made it all the way to the final and finished as runners-up, but their romance didn’t last long outside the villa, with the couple calling it quits just months after the show ended.
On rejoining the show, he said: "I’ve got no regrets from last series, but this time I'm going to be more open-minded and enjoy the experience for what it is. I’m going to be my authentic self. I've always been honest and whatever I've said or done I've always stood on business. If you don’t like me, then that’s up to you."
Jack Keating
Age: 26
Original season: 8 (2022)
Instagram: jackkeating11
Currently coupled up with: Whitney Adebayo
Ronan Keating's son, Jack, is back. He was originally part of the Casa Amor cast in 2022, but is now in the starting line-up.
"I feel like I have to come back and redeem myself, my experience before was short and sweet, I was in there for four days and I didn’t couple up with anyone, so it didn’t really go to plan. The revenge tour is here! I’ve been single for a year now and I’m looking for love," he said.
Sean Stone
Age: 26
Original season: 11 (2024)
Instagram: seanstone__
Currently coupled up with: Belle Hassan
Sean, the sweet shop owner, made waves in the 2024 villa and left with Matilda - though their romance didn’t last long. Known for his flirtatious streak and fun-loving personality, he’s back this time with one goal: to find love that actually sticks.
"Everyone’s experienced Villa life and you’re in a pool of similar people who’ve been through the same things after, too. It makes sense to share it with someone again. I like the fact that you can find someone from a completely different area and lifestyle - that’s quite exciting," he said.
Tommy Bradley
Age: 22
Original season: 12 (2025)
Instagram: _tommybradley_
Currently coupled up with: Jess Harding
Tommy appeared on the 2025 series, but love didn’t exactly go his way. He coupled up with Megan, Emily, and Lucy - yet none of the relationships stuck.
Asked why he decided to come back, Tommy said: "It was the best time of my life. I was so out of my comfort zone but learnt so much about myself and how I handle situations. I met some friends for life. I want a second chance at meeting someone romantically."
Shaq Muhammad
Age: 27
Original season: 9 (2023)
Instagram: shaq24s_
Currently coupled up with: Helena Ford
Shaq left the second winter series in 2023 with Tanya Manhenga. The pair went on to have a year-long relationship before eventually going their separate ways.
"Last time I did find love but it didn't work out. This time round, I need to find a wife and give my mum some grandchildren! It worked last time so I feel like it could happen again hopefully!"
Who has left Love Island All Stars season 3?
AJ Bunker - Dumped
Age: 33
Original season: 7 (2021)
Instagram: andreajanebunker
Coupled up with: As a bombshell AJ is currently single
AJ was only in the Villa for six days during her original season back in 2021 and she got to know Hugo, however there wasn't much of a connection between them. This time around she wants to be "unapologetically" herself and show the fun and chatty side of herself.
Charlie Frederick - Dumped
Age: 31
Original season: 4 (2018)
Instagram: charliefrederick_
Currently coupled up with: Charlie is currently single after Konnor stole Millie during the recoupling
We didn’t get to see much of Charlie back when he appeared on the show in 2018, so it’ll be great to have him back as part of the starting line-up. Since season four, he’s kept busy with appearances on Made In Chelsea, and now he’s ready to bring that same charm - and maybe a few surprises - back to the Love Island villa.
"I’d like a fair crack at the whip! The first time round, I was in there for five days and I really want to find someone," he said.
Rumoured bombshells
As the series progresses there's sure to be a number of new arrivals to the Villa and while none have been officially confirmed yet, there's a few rumoured former Islanders said to be making a return.
Ronnie Vint
Ronnie first appeared on Love Island back in season 11 where he had an on again, off again relationship with Harriet. He then returned for last year's All Stars series where he was reunited with Harriet. However, the couple have broken up for good and now The Sun has reported Ronnie will be making his third appearance on the show.
Olivia Hawkins
Olivia is originally from series nine of Love Island and returned to the Villa last year for All Stars season two where she formed a connection with season three's Marcel Somerville. However, the pair ended up splitting shortly after leaving the Villa and now it looks like Olivia could be making her next appearance on the show this winter. Third times the charm?
Love Island: All Stars starts on ITV2 on Monday 12th January at 9pm.
