Dare we say we are a tad concerned about the line-up for the second series of Love Island: All Stars?

Every time a name starts swirling around the All Stars rumour mill, moments later, said Islander takes to social media to deny, deny, DENY.

The latest person to confirm they will very much NOT be heading back into the villa is bombshell of all bombshells, Megan Barton-Hanson.

During a chat with fellow Love Island girlie Chloe Burrows on her Chloe vs. The World podcast, Megan spilled all the tea.

'I think I’m going to give it a miss,' she admitted when the Love Island 2021 finalist asked Megan outright if she would be taking part in the dating show for a second time, 'I've completed the dating shows.'

To be fair, Megan took part in Celebs Go Dating back in 2018, where she met now ex-girlfriend TOWIE star Demi Sims and was also a contestant on The Love Island Games earlier on in the year, so yeah, she kind of has.

Although she claimed she won't be on the second series of All Stars, Megan did contemplate it and even reached out to some other Islanders.

'I DMed some of the guys I might fancy,' Megan laughed and Chloe confessed that she had done the same to see if they'd be appearing on the show.

Although Megan is done with romance reality TV shows she has countless other work ventures up her sleeves and was more than happy to tell Chloe all.

'I invested in a company last year, it's two sisters that own it and it's a self portrait studio,' the Love Island 2018 bombshell revealed.

Colour us intrigued; this may well be a match made in heaven because there is no denying that if anyone knows how to take a hot AF pic it's Megan, the bombshell literally makes thousands doing it.

'You know how hard it is to get your own content sometimes with the lighting, I'm sorry, but me and a ring light don't get on,' she went on and that may well be the most relatable comment we have ever heard.

'It's nearly bought me to tears a few times, Chloe, I've nearly kicked the ring light over in rage,' she added and it's nice to know we aren't the only ones who feel like their own phone is out to get them.

We are loving the route Megan has decided to head down – no HelloFresh deals or fitness videos from this Love Island queen.

From our social media sleuthing we have a feeling that the sisters Megan are working with are Aimee and Lily, who are the brains behind Candid Studios.

Candid Studios describes itself as 'a self-portrait studio in Notting Hill where you call the shots + take control of your story,' and that sounds exactly like what Megan has been chatting about.

Get ready to see us every Friday night Megan, as that sounds right up our street.
