Love Island series one icon to 'return' for All Stars series – nine years later
Love Island: All Stars will be going back to season one as one of the shows as an original islander is tipped to be taking part.
Hannah Elizabeth was a show favourite when the hit ITV2 reality romance show launched back in 2015 - and she arrived in the villa on Day 1 alongside fellow contestants Jess Hayes, Jon Clark, Josh Ritchie, Lauren Richardson, Luis Morrison, Jordan Ring, Zoe Brown, Omar Sultani, Chris Williamson, Danielle Pyne and Rachel Christie. Hannah coupled up with 34-year-old Jon - who went on to be a star as a cast member on The Only Way Is Essex - with the pair even becoming engaged on the show.
But the love was not to last and now 33-year-old Hannah - who shares a four-year-old son named Reggie with former fiancé George Andretti - is hoping for a second chance at romance in the spotlight. A report has claimed the blonde bombshell will be among the stars returning to the villa to take part in Love Island: All Stars in just several days.
The rumour mill has been in overdrive since ITV confirmed an All Stars version of the show would be filmed - with a string of past names being linked to the new series. Hannah is the first original cast member to be referenced as a contestant.

Recent reports have suggested that 2021 contestant Liberty Poole and 2017 contestant Georgia Harrison have signed up for the new spin-off. Speaking of 24-year-old Liberty, a source told The Sun: “Love comes in many forms and the show has always enforced that - always celebrating friendships and personal progression too. Liberty became the poster girl for self-love when she ditched Jake and chose her dignity instead - it was a huge TV moment back then and fans will be thrilled to see her thriving and back in the villa.”
Another source said of 29-year-old Georgia: “Georgia has become a role model to young people and showed immense courage during her ordeal with her heroic political campaigning. She is an amazing signing for the new show and producers are really pleased and excited she has decided to do it.”
An ITV source has downplayed the reports, however, telling the Mirror: "The lineup will be announced on Monday so any names rumoured ahead of time are speculative." Love Island first found attention way back in 2005 as a celebrity dating show. A string of stars were flown out to Fiji where they frolicked in the sun and attempted to find romance between themselves.
The series was hosted by Patrick Kielty and Kelly Brook and saw presenter Jayne Middlemiss and nightclub manager Fran Cosgrave win the first season. The second season saw Kelly replaced by Fearne Cotton as a host, and the show was won by model Bianca Gascoigne and fellow model Calum Best. The show was a critical and commercial flop - but the series was reinvented in 2015 to show civilians falling in love instead and has gone on to be one of ITV’s flagship shows.
