Love Island: All Stars 2026 Returns with Familiar Faces and New Connections in South Africa
ITV has officially announced the line-up for Love Island: All Stars 2026, featuring former winners and familiar faces returning to the villa in search of love. The reality show, which started in 2024, brings back iconic contestants from previous seasons, leading to reunions and new relationships in the tropical setting where the show is filmed. Last year's winners, Casey O'Gorman and Gabby Allen, split just three months after the show ended, but they remain friends with mutual respect for each other.
The second season of Love Island: All Stars included contestants like Luca Bish, Grace Jackson, Scott Thomas, and Elma Pazar. Curtis Pritchard and Ekin-Su Culculoglu surprised viewers by hitting it off during the season, but they also parted ways after the show concluded. ITV announced the return of Love Island: All Stars for an extended third series on ITV2 and ITVX, with Maya Jama back as the presenter and Iain Stirling providing his witty commentary.
The upcoming season will see fan-favorite Islanders from the past 10 years returning to the Villa in South Africa, seeking connections while navigating relationship challenges. The third All Stars series will run for six weeks instead of the usual five, promising more drama and romance. Contestants like Millie Court, winner of series 7 with Liam Reardon in 2021, and Jess Harding, winner of series 10 in 2023 with Sammy Root, will be part of the new season. Additionally, Jack Keating, son of Ronan Keating, will also be joining the cast after a brief appearance in the Casa Amor section of the 2022 series.
Love Island: All Stars 2026 is set to bring back the excitement, romance, and unexpected twists that fans love about the show. With a mix of familiar faces and new connections, viewers can expect a thrilling and entertaining season as the Islanders embark on their journey to find love in the sun-soaked Villa.
