At this point, hundreds of bombshells have stormed Love Island villas across the world, and let's be honest, while slow-mo walking into those villas and stirring up some sh*t sounds fun and gives all those baddie vibes, it's no easy feat (just look at Samie Elishi and Ron Hall – ooft). And yet, some bombshells just make it look easy, don't they? Bombshells like Love Island 2024 star turned Love Island: All Stars' Grace Jackson.
Her record is giving Megan Barton-Hanson, but it speaks for herself. She left the 2024 villa as one of the biggest names of the series, so big in fact, that producers invited her back to do it all again on All Stars just a few months later. And both times she slayed, cementing herself as one of the franchise's ultimate bombshells.
And this time, of course, Grace made it all the way to the final with Luca Bish, who she is still loved up with IRL – despite the last minute character assassination by Olivia Hawkins ahead of the final. Ooft.
Here's every you need to know about Queen Grace and her bombshelling ways...
Who is Love Island's Grace Jackson?
Grace is a Love Island 2024 and All Stars bombshell. During her first time on the show she entered the villa alongside Wil Anderson and Tiffany Leighton. For her All Stars entrance she was joined by Ron Hall.
How old is Love Island's Grace Jackson?
Grace is 26 years old. She was born 26 August 1998.
Where is Love Island's Grace Jackson from?
She is from Manchester.
What is Grace Jackson's job?
Grace is a model signed to agency MM Models and she also owns a marketing company called Social Clubhouse. She's been on Love Island now, so she can officially add influencer and reality star to her CV, too.
What happened to Grace Jackson on Love Island: All Stars?
Grace entered the villa alongside Ron Hall on day 8 and pretty much made a beeline for Luca Bish, who had struggled to find a connection in the villa before Grace. All was going well until Samie Elishi tried to out bombshell her and made it known that she fancied Luca. Luca then royally f*ckied up when he kissed Samie in a challenge, moments after telling Grace he wouldn't.
Naturally, all hell broke loose and Grace demanded Luca shut things down with Samie, resulting in her being dumped from the villa a few days later.
After that Samie-shaped bump in the road, Grace and Luca made it to the final, finishing in second place.
What happened with Grace Jackson and Olivia Hawkins on Love Island: All Stars?
Prior to the final the dumped Islanders returned to the villa and OG Olivia Hawkins claimed Grace had sent some scandalous messages claiming she would do 'anything to win' to an anonymous source.
Grace outright denied the accusations but seeing as she was stuck in the villa there wasn't much she could do to prove her innocence. The plot thickened when 'Messy' Mitch Taylor shared a screen recording of said suspicious messages despite not knowing whether or not they were real.
What happened when Grace Jackson was on Love Island 2024?
She joined the villa on day 12 and was voted out on day 52 alongside Reuben Collins.
The duo were voted as the couple least likely to work in the outside world by the public in the A Couple of Sorts challenge and as a result they were immediately dumped from the villa, much to the shock of the other Islanders and us at home.
Who was Grace coupled up with in the Love Island villa?
Grace found herself in six couples while she was in the villa. She entered as a bombshell on day 12 and also immediately rekindled things with Joey Essex, who she'd previously dated in the outside world. Bombshell boy Konnor Ewudzi stole Grace from Joey on day 22, but she was still interested in the former TOWIE star. However, their romance fizzled out when Jessy Potts came in and turned Joey's head and Grace never quite managed to spark a romantic connection with Konnor.
When Casa Amor rolled out, Grace found herself in a love triangle with Casa boys Blade and Moziah but she ultimately chose to bring Blade back to the main villa. Her blossoming romance with Blade didn't go anywhere, however, and she called things off shortly before he was dumped from the show.
Bombshell boys Josh Oyinsan and Reuben entered the villa on day 36 and although she and Josh were attracted to one another, he picked Mimii Ngulube at the recoupling. Reuben initially chose to couple up with Uma Jammeh, but she quit the villa when Wil Anderson was dumped which opened the door for Reuben to get to know Grace.
Reuben and Grace eventually coupled up, but producers threw a spanner in the works when the last boy bombshell, Harry Baker, entered the villa and made a beeline for Grace. Harry stole Grace, but their relationship never really got off the ground and she and Reuben ended up getting back together.
Who has Grace Jackson dated?
Grace previously dated TOWIE legend Joey Essex a few summers back after meeting him in Ibiza but their holiday romance quickly fizzled out. They reunited in the Love Island 2024 villa but failed to make a go of things.
Once her time in the villa was over, Grace was seen getting up, close and personal with Omar Nyame despite apparently still being with Reuben, but, once again that was also short-lived.
At the end of last year she shared a fling with Man United footballer Marcus Rashford with fans loving the romance; obviously they are no longer together as she is back on Love Island.
She pursued a romance with Luca Bish in the All Stars 2025 villa and the two are still together today.
We think.
