There were pies, icks, love triangles and more during the inaugural season of Love Island All Stars, which saw Molly Smith and Tom Clare crowned as the first winners of the series in February this year. Now, we need to know, will there be another season?
The ITV series saw previous Islanders such as Georgia Steel, Chris Taylor, Liberty Poole and more return to the iconic villa for another chance at finding love, with some leaving coupled up while others stayed single.
If, like us, you're wondering if you'll see other contestants make a re-appearance in a future series (we're looking at you, Maura Higgins!), then here is everything you need to know about series two of Love Island All Stars.
Will there be a season 2 of Love Island All Stars?
Drum roll, please... Maya Jama revealed Love Island All Stars will be the next iteration of Love Island to hit our screens, during the summer Love Island final on 29th July 2024. After announcing Mimii and Josh as our official series winners, she said she looked forward to seeing everyone again for the winter version, which sees recognisable faces from previous years of the show put into the villa and hope to find love.
Previously, ahead of the release of the summer series (which kicked off on 3rd June) ITV confirmed the All Stars series would return next year to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of show. Yep that's right, we've had an entire decade of Love Island.
Speaking on the exciting news, Mike Spencer, Creative Director at Lifted Entertainment said: “What a perfect way to celebrate a decade of Love Island, by bringing back another all star class of Islanders for what will I’m sure be another vintage year of romance, drama and relationships."
Bring on season two!
Who might host Love Island All Stars series 2?
While nothing has been confirmed as of yet we can't really imagine a season of Love Island without host Maya Jama, who has previously shared that she'll be keen to host the show for as long as people want her to.
"I'll stay for as long as it's going," Maya told The Sun. "It's been fun actually. It's been my favourite job ever." Speaking about the new All Stars format, which ditched Aftersun but saw her doing interviews with the dumped Islanders straight away, she added, "I'm doing interviews as soon as they leave... with this new exit interview format, I feel like you'll get the raw emotion. I'm really excited about that actually."
Who might star in Love Island All Stars series 2?
There are plenty of Islanders that might want to return to the villa for another chance at finding love. Of course, nothing has been confirmed yet but we'd know we'd like to see Anna Vakili, Amber Gill and Davide Sanclimenti, to name a few.
We do know, however, that Maura Higgins, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, Adam Collard and Kady McDermott have all said no to appearing on the show again 😢.
Love Island All Stars is available on ITVX now and the next season of Love Island begins on 3rd June on ITV2 and ITVX.
