Love Island All Stars line-up: Marcel and Gabby to return

ITV has confirmed the line-up for the latest series of Love Island: All Stars.

The spin-off, first launched last year, sees singles from previous series jet to South Africa for another shot at love in the villa.

This year, dancer Curtis Pritchard from series five will be back to make everyone's morning coffees joined by series three's Gabby Allen, series four's Kaz Crossley and Nas Majeed from series six.

Gabby's ex, former Blazin' Squad member Marcel Somerville, is also set for a return to the reality show hosted by Maya Jama.

ITV also confirmed Scott Thomas (series two), Olivia Hawkins (series nine), Catherine Agbaje (series 10) and Ronnie Vint (series 11) will return alongside Luca Bish, who coupled up with Gemma Owen, daughter of ex-footballer Michael, in series eight.

All Stars started last year in response to falling viewing figures for the series, which first aired in 2015.

The final attracted 1.3 million viewers - significantly lower than the show peak of 6 million during its 2019 heyday.

That was when series five, introduced to returning star Curtis, as well as Maura Higgins, Amber Gill and, of course, Love Island royalty Molly-Mae Hague.

Two other series five islanders, Elma Pazar and India Reynolds, have also been confirmed for the new All-Stars.

Curtis, now 28, says he decided to return to the villa because "settling down is a serious idea in my life".

Since his first time on the series in 2019 he's appeared on Celebs Go Dating, Dancing with the Stars and even Hollyoaks.

He's probably best remembered for his villa romance with Amy Hart, who he dumped after telling her he'd rather make coffees for his fellow islanders than spend time with her.

"In hindsight, if I do find a girl this time, I will perhaps cuddle her in bed rather than make coffee," he says about his second try.

"Amy taught me a lesson."

All Stars will be the first time Kaz has been back on TV screens since she was detained in the UAE over a video of her appearing to take drugs while in Dubai.

Posting on Instagram, Kaz she was arrested and held in custody for five days during a stop-over in Abu Dhabi last February after the clip, filmed in 2020, was leaked online.

She said she took "full accountability" for her actions.

Speaking of her return to the villa, the 29-year-old says she's "even more mature now so I'm ready to find a relationship".

"It'll be nice to mingle with people from different series, especially as series 4 was so long ago now."

Nas says he's hoping Love Island will "come through again" for him on All Stars - he was in a relationship with Eva Zapico for four years after they first coupled up in the villa before splitting in March.

"It was quite successful for me the first time around," he says. "So I'm hoping that Love Island can come through again and make it everlasting."

All Stars returns to ITV2 and ITVX from Monday.
