Love Island's Jess Harding 'in talks to join All Stars' alongside Casa Amor bombshell

A former Love Island winner is said to be in talks the upcoming series of the All Stars spinoff. Jess Harding, who won series 10 of the regular series alongside Sammy Root, is reportedly in talks lined up for next competition, when it kicks off in South Africa next year.

Alima Gagigo is also said to be in meetings with bosses about a comeback, just weeks after she competed in series 12 of the programme and was dumped on Day 24. Andrada Pop, who was a bombshell in Casa Amor earlier this year, has also been approached by producers, reports The Sun.

A source said: "It’s very early days, but Jess, Andrada and Alima are all in talks with ITV bosses about joining series three of All Stars. They’re all massive fan favourites so viewers would be tuning in to see them find love."

The Sunreports that Andrada's outbursts throughout the final and the Islander's final dumping have made her a huge favourite amongst show bosses. But it comes just days after Jess, who split from Sammy in late 2023, just two months after they emerged victorious from the series, was recently spotted at the NTAs cosying up to BBC star James Blake.

An onlooker told the outlet: "They placed themselves down in one of the private booths and it was clear that they only had eyes for each other.

"Jess and James could be seen sharing a laugh and a joke with each other, and it was obvious she had no interest in mingling with the other stars at the celeb-packed bash.

"At one point, her co-star Whitney Adebayo and pal sat at the table with them for a catch-up, but quickly went back to dancing to give Jess some more alone time."

Single Islanders from across the 10 years of the show will return to the famous Villa in South Africa, but this time they'll be in the villa for six weeks instead of five. It comes after reports of all the celebrities rumoured to be joining BBC Strictly Come Dancing 2025.

Speaking on the renewal, Mike Spencer-Hayter, Creative Director at Lifted Entertainment, said: “Love Island: All Stars has quickly established itself as a stand-alone hit, keeping fans of the show gripped by iconic Islanders from the past 10 years returning for another chance to find love.

"We are very excited about series 3, and you can expect the twists and turns to continue in All Stars, after an incredible smash hit summer series.”

The second series of Love Island: All Stars aired earlier this year and was won by Gabby Allen and Casey O'Gorman. The series also saw the reunion of Ronnie Vint and Harriet Blackmore - but it didn't come without complaints.

In February, the show lodged over 2,000 complaints to Ofcom in its final week, as fans fumed at various stars for their "bullying behaviour". On February 12, there were 1,347 complaints, followed by 820 on February 11, 63 on February 13 and 57 on February 16.
