Wes Nelson teases new Love Island stint after ex Megan Barton-Hanson's return
Wes Nelson has teased a sensational ITV return in Love Island All Stars.
The new series is earmarked for January next year and will see a star-studded line-up of former show stars come together for a brand-new villa season. Nice To Meet Ya hitmaker Wes hinted at his involvement as she sat down with The Mirror for an exclusive chat following ex Megan Barton-Hanson's appearance on Love Island Games.
Their whirlwind romance lasted only five months after they met while filming the fourth season of Love Island back in 2019. Now seemingly single after admitting getting "heebie jeebies" at the thought of dating, it's thought Wes could be getting back in front of the camera as he tells us he "hasn't ruled out" returning to reality TV.

Megan recently returned to TV on Love Island Games (Instagram)Megan made a minor appearance on the Love Island spin-off last month, becoming the show's first same-sex coupling with Kyra Green. But her time on-screen was short lived after revealing her departure due to "medical reasons".
But with Megan back in the spotlight, will Wes return for Love Island All Stars? He told us: "I havn't completely ruled out reality TV. I started out in it and there's no shame in it and I think there's a stigma attached to it that's almost undeserved sometimes.

"I'd never rule out any reality TV, obviously. But music does take the forefront. And it's something that I've really put my time and effort and blood sweat and tears into over the past three years. So I don't want to sort of ruin that workflow, if that makes sense. But at the same time, I'm always open to looking at reality shows."
It comes after reports Wes was heading for Love Island Games in an awkward reunion alongside Megan, something he tells us wasn't true. "I don't know where that came from, I didn't even know [Love Island Games] was a thing until it came out."
Wes has been open about his rapid rise to fame and fortune, revealing he was officially a millionaire aged just 21. Previously chatting to The Mirror, he told us that he's enjoyed the wild ride to stardom but prefers a more low-key life these days.
He now opts for "multi-pack clothing" over designer gear. Speaking to us ahead of his first European tour as a musical artist, Wes says he's totally transformed himself, ditching his "materialistic lifestyle". Now 25, and a celebrity in his own right following the storming success of his hits Nice To Meet Ya and See Nobody, the former Islander is enjoying life without being 'flashy', even giving away his £100,000 Mercedes.
Opening up about living a more low-key life, Wes continued: "I just buy multiple packs of [unbranded] white and black T-shirts most of the time and just rinse them. I think everyone goes through that stage you know, I think it's easy to get caught up in buying flash stuff and doing this and that and you just realise it's not for yourself.
"Even though you convince yourself that you're buying these things to make yourself happy it doesn't make you happier you just end up just spending a load on rubbish and yeah, I think I'm way past that again. I'm back to just do my normal investment things and property and obviously investing back into music is the main the main.
