When it comes to Love Island too many times have we seen contestants being dumped WAY before we were ready to say goodbye.
Even worse is when our faves are left heartbroken when the person they're coupled up with moves on.
Take Love Island 2024 OG Samantha Kenny for example, the Liverpudlian was only in the villa for sixteen AND she was done dirty by former TOWIE star Joey Essex AND chucked out too soon for our liking.
But with All Stars season two right around the corner here is hoping that Samantha will be back on our screens and hoping to find love in the villa with NO reality TV stars to mess it up for her, thank you very much.
If Samantha does decide to return for the second spin off series we can see her doing a Molly Smith and making it all the way to the final, let's hope they send in the Essex lad of her dreams.

What does Samantha Kenny do for a living?
Samantha is a make up artist. She regularly posts snaps of her gorgeous work on her Instagram grid. She also appears to dabble in influencing, too.
Who did Samantha Kenny couple up with on Love Island?
Samantha was originally coupled up with one of the villa's two Tom Clare lookalikes, Sam Taylor (the other being Ciaran Davies, obv). That lasted all of two seconds as Samantha made it clear she was looking for a cockney boy without a mullet. Luckily, Joey Essex then entered the villa as the first bombshell and stole Samantha from Sam leaving him single and brutally dumped.
Joey and Samantha spent two weeks getting to know one another and even left the villa for a romantic rooftop date. Things then went south went Joey's ex Grace Jackson strutted into the villa and Joey ditched Samantha for her, leaving the OG single and dumped.
Samantha then returned to the villa ahead of the final to confront Joey, criticising him for leading her on for two weeks after he referred to the relationship as a "friendship couple".
What did Samantha Kenny say about Joey Essex after her dumping?
Upon leaving the villa she told producers, "I was true to myself and didn't feel like it was a waste of my time because I followed what I felt was right for me. When it comes to Joey, I think if I knew what I know now, I perhaps would have done things differently."
What did Samantha Kenny's mum say about Joey Essex?
Shortly after Samantha's dumping, her mum commented on the official Love Island Instagram account and btw we just love it when the family have their say.
In a now deleted comment, the iconic Lynne Kenny left a message for Joey, writing, "You ruined my daughter's two weeks in the villa 💔" on a post that featured Joey looking solemn on the outdoor sofa.
What happened between Samantha Kenny and Ronnie Vint?
Sadly nothing, which is a shame because that would've been utter couple goals.
Samantha did make it very clear she was lookign for "tall, dark and cockney" though, and erm...
Upon leaving the villa Samantha told producers she wished she'd got to know Ronnie and admitted, "Ronnie’s more my type than Joey was, but I feel like Ronnie didn’t pursue anything with me because he didn’t want to go up against Joey."
