It's been a hot minute since we last thought of Love Island's Samira Mighty but we were stunned recently when we noticed she was hanging out with a series 11 Islander.

Samira, who found fame on Love Island 2018, has been living her best life since leaving the villa.

She appeared on Celebrity X Factor alongside Zara McDermott, Wes Nelson and Eyal Booker, she's released multiple songs (one of them even featured on Love Island) and now she's starring as Princess Jasmine in Aladdin in Cheltenham's panto.

And our jaws were on the floor this week when we realised that Love Island 2024 star Reuben Collins supported Samira during one of her performances.

Posting a photo together on Instagram, Samira wrote, 'These cuties supporting me tonight in my show.'

Err, since when were Samira and Reuben friends?

Reuben replied to her Instagram Story and said, 'Well done @samiramighty smashed it.'

While it looks like they're just pals we reckon they'd be a hot pair if they decided to recouple. After all, they didn't have the best luck in the villa.

Samira coupled up with Frankie Foster and was devastated when he was voted out the villa. She then quit the show for him but shortly after discovering he 'cheated', they ended their relationship.

Reuben on the other hand entered the villa as a bombshell and got to know Uma Jammeh but after he chose to recouple with her, she quit the show when Wil Anderson was dumped.

Reuben then recoupled with Grace Jackson and despite being voted as least likely to work and Grace telling everyone she'll 'prove them wrong', they split two weeks after the final.

At the time Reuben told The Sun, 'We've both been very busy and with the long distance it was difficult...

'There are no bad feelings. We had a great experience together.'

As of January 2025, there's only one couple remaining from the 2024 series and that's Uma and Wil.
