Following a successful All Stars spin-off earlier this year, fans will be glad to know it’s time to welcome some fresh Love Island faces this summer.

The usual Love Island will be in its 11th series this time round, and we can’t wait to get summer started with the show - cos’ let’s be honest, it only feels like summer when Love Island is on the telly.

Making the likes of Molly-Mae Hague and Olivia Attwood household names, Love Island producers receive over 100,000 applications each year from young hopefuls, as well as those scouted on social media and in clubs (the dream).

With Casa Amor, dreaded dumpings and fiery feuds, the reality show is known for bringing drama and gossip in abundance, as well as some very hot contestants. With the last few seasons bringing some familiar faces, can we expect the same this year? Or even a celeb who’s looking for love? 👀

Last year, Love Island was the second most-watched show in its time slot, after questions began to circulate on whether the show was past its best, and Ofcom received over 1,000 complaints.

Who won Love Island: All Stars?

With five couples making it to the All Stars final, it was Molly Smith and Tom Clare who took 1st place with 35% of the votes. Since the final, their relationship seems to be going from strength-to-strength, with regular social media posts of each other, as well as Tom being in full support of Molly’s recent Boohoo launch.

Who won Love Island 2023?

Sammy Root and Jess Harding were crowned the winners of last year’s series, with Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowacki coming second, and Ella Thomas and Tyrique Hyde in third. Unfortunately, though, winners Sammy and Jess are no longer an item, after breaking up just two months after the final.
