Okay, here's our dichotomic dilemma (phwoar – those are some big words for a Tuesday in January) withLove Island's Callum Jones; he scorned the legendary Shaughna Phillips in the Love Island 2020 villa (he dumped Shaughna for Casa Amor bombshell Molly Smith, resulting in that iconic utterance, "Congrats, hun"), BUT four years on, we still fancy the pants off him...
The eternal struggle; head vs. heart vs. erm, other things.
And luckily/unfortunately for us, the infamous Mancunian scaffolder is back in the villa to cause yet more heartbreak/find love.
In case you missed it – spoilers ahead, blah blah blah – Callum sauntered into the Love Island: All Stars villa at the end of the series' debut episode as the show's first bombshell and it was a GAG. Well, it was until his ex Molly walked in as the first female bombshell on the same day and Callum was told he had to either steal a girl away from one of the OG boys or recouple with his ex. Ooft.
It feels like 2020 again – well, before the world shut down.
