Yep, it's time to start obsessing over Love Island: All Stars 2025, huns. heat says so – and we possess some authority when it comes to your reality telly obsessions.
Just when we thought Love Island couldn’t get any better, the ITV gods blessed us with Love Island All Stars in January 2024. There were countless standout moments from the series, but it was perhaps best remembered for its incredibly awkward moments. After all, it gave us a cringeworthy reunion between Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish as they were revealed to be some of the first OGs, followed immediately by Molly Smith and Callum Jones being the first bombshells just a few months after ending their three-year relationship.
All Stars re-introduced us to Islanders that didn’t get enough fanfare their first time in the villa like Arabella Chi or Sophie Piper, while it also reaffirmed our existing opinions of others like Messy Mitch Taylor. It turns out, some people never change.
Naturally, the success of the first season led us to wonder whether we’d be treated to a second series, and during Love Island 2024, Maya Jama announced that she would in fact be returning for a second series of All Stars along with a whole host of familiar faces.
And naturally, ever since, the rumour mill has been spinning...
Of course, we don't know for certain who will be jetting out to South Africa for a second (or third or fourth) chance at love, but we've heard rumours (some of which have already been debunked – boo), and naturally, we have our own theories, too.
Who is on Love Island All Stars 2025? The rumoured line-up...
Casey O'Gorman
In an interview with The Mirror, Tom Clare - who won the first All Stars alongside his now girlfriend, Molly Smith - admitted that his best friend Casey O'Gorman will 'probably' appear on the next series of All Stars. Casey, of course, appeared on the very first All Stars with Tom, but we do know he can't resist a reality telly opportunity – he recently joined the cast of Made in Chelsea. He's also believed to be single right now, so there's that, too.
Olivia Hawkins
Bring back our 'villains', we say; and given Coco Lodge is all shacked with Joel Corry, our money is on Olivia Hawkins making a comeback.
Tyrique Hyde
Since he split with his Love Island 2023 bae Ella Thomas, the rumour mill has been seriously rumouring re Tyrique Hyde. The Love Island fave is said to be speaking to producers, with a source telling The Sun, 'Tyrique is in super early talks with ITV to return to All Stars.'
Gemma Owen
Rumours of a Gemma Owen telly return have been been rife as of late, however, it was recently confirmed that Gemma would 'categorically' not be returning for All Stars. Boo.
Scott van-der-Sluis
Is the fourth time the charm for Scott van-der-Sluis? Call it a hunch on our part.
Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu
Love Island 2022 winner Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu recently took part in Celebrity Big Brother, where she made it clear she was done with the Love Island franchise, but that hasn't stopped fans from wondering, 'What if?'...
Luca Bish
Despite much speculation and manifestation (mostly from us), Luca Bish, who made in to the final of Love Island 2022 on the arm of Gemma Owen, is now dating Italian model Giulia Ciancio and was snapped out with her in Newcastle recently. A requisite of Love Island: All Stars is being single, so we're thinking Luca won't be making a Love Island return anytime soon.
Davide Sanclimenti
Imagine the drama if Davide and Ekin-Su came face to face on night one of All Stars à la Molly and Callum? The carnage...
Sam Taylor
Many fans thought Sam Taylor was robbed when he was booted from this summer's Love Island just 48 hours in (at the hand of Joey Essex). Ever since, many have been calling on Love Island producers to consider him for All Stars. We've been demanding it...
Samantha Kenny
Samantha Kenny was a Love Island 2024 fan fave who was scorned by Joey Essex in the villa. If anyone deserves a second chance...
Josh Oyinsan
Love Island 2024 winner Josh Oyinsan recently split from Mimii Ngulube and is therefore single and ready to mingle.
Lucinda Strafford
Love Island 2021 icon Lucinda Strafford is a fan fave for All Stars 2 on Reddit.
Ovie Soko
Now, we actually asked Ovie Soko if he was up for All Stars 2 at The NTAs and he declared he was 'too old' for Love Island. But, if you ask us, this iconic Islander doth protest too much. Also he's 33, so no – Chris Taylor was 34. We have no doubt that a conversation has at least been had...
When does Love Island All Stars return?
The show will likely return for its second instalment in January 2025. A late Christmas present to us all.
What nights is Love Island All Stars on?
Love Island: All Stars will air every night (except Saturdays) on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm.
Who is hosting Love Island All Stars?
The one, the only, Maya Jama of course.
