Love Island: All Stars is coming back for a second season. Yes, another group of previous favourites and anti-heroes from previous seasons are heading back into the villa looking for love —again. The All Stars show is effectively Love Island on steroids. After all, these islanders have been here before; some of them already have a bit of history. And a few brand deals already under their belts. What’s not to love?
The second season of Love Island: All Stars hits ITV2 next week on January 13 — and it’s come at the perfect time. We could all use some sunny holiday vibes and familiar faces during one of the bleakest months of the year, right?
We finally know which islanders will be heading back into the villa for round two. Meet the contestants below.
Curtis Pritchard, 28, Love Island series 5
Curtis starred in one of Love Island’s most iconic seasons. Initially paired with Amy (she loved him, people!), he then moved onto Francesca, before pairing up with Maura. Together, the pair came in fourth.
This time, he really is ready for love. Apparently. “I feel like I’m in a different stage in my life,” he said. “The idea of settling down is a serious idea in my life right now. I haven’t found my true love… that sounds so cheesy, doesn’t it? So, I thought, let’s give it another go.”
We know what you’re thinking. Thank goodness! There will be someone on hand to make everyone a coffee in the morning! “In hindsight, if I do find a girl this time, I will perhaps cuddle her in bed rather than make coffee… so Amy taught me a lesson,” he said.
Ronnie Vint, 28, Love Island series 11
Ronnie and his hairline are back after (checks watch) about five minutes out of the villa. The footballer appeared on the most recent season of Love Island and was voted off after struggling to choose between Jess and Harriet. Eventually, he and Harriet left the villa together.
