First Love Island bombshell confirmed as TV star's sibling lands in South Africa
With the cast of Love Island: All Stars already confirmed ahead of Monday's launch, it seems the identity of the ITV2 show's first bombshell has been 'revealed' after a former Islander touched down in South Africa.
Liberty Poole, Georgia Harrison and Jake Corninsh are amongst the 12 famous faces returning for a second stab at finding romance on TV in a series that host Maya Jama believes will produce "a lot more drama". Unlike previous editions, there will be no Casa Amor with ITV bosses keen to "bring new islanders into the mix in new ways", according to an executive producer.
Expect bombshells aplenty, however - with a 2020 winter edition star amongst those seeking cause to havoc in the villa. For Sophie Piper - the sister of This Morning presenter Rochelle Humes - has been spotted luggage in tow at the airport.

The told the publication: "I didn't quite spot her at first because she was flying in premium economy and I expected ITV would've coughed up for first class! But she kept to herself and was hiding beneath her hood the whole time, probably trying not to get spotted.
"She seemed in good spirits though and was giggling away with her pal at the airport. Sophie's such a pretty girl and she seems really sweet. I reckon she'll have no problem coupling up with someone in the Villa." Sophie's original Love Island stint saw her dumped after 21 days after brief couplings with Connor Durman, Connagh Howard and Mike Boateng.

Discussing the changes for the series further, executive producer, Mike Spencer told the Mirror: "We have got to be reactive. These islanders have done it all before so we have to be one step ahead of them. This give us the chance to shake it up and bring new islanders into the mix in new ways." Revealing there are plenty of new features including secret beds hidden away in the South Africa villa, Mike said: “We have four hidden single beds in the lounge, so make of that what you will."
He continued: Casa Amor, as we know and love it, doesn’t really work for a five week run because you need time to bed in, get to know each other, see if they are for you and if you want to switch it up. I think you don’t need the element of bringing a massive influx of new islanders in. That is good for an eight week run but you don’t need it for this. This is going to be more intense and people will fall for each other quicker."
