The sun-drenched drama of Love Island returns to ITV2 this Monday night, this time with a twist. Love Island: All Stars brings a fresh batch of former Islanders back to the villa, offering them a second chance at finding love (or at least a fleeting moment of televised romance). Host Maya Jama presides over the proceedings as these familiar faces re-enter the fray, this time in the picturesque setting of South Africa.
For those unfamiliar with the premise, Love Island throws together a group of singles in a luxurious villa, encouraging them to couple up while navigating various challenges and temptations. The “All Stars” edition brings extra familiarity (and potential baggage) as these ex-Islanders, already accustomed to the spotlight, attempt to rewrite their romantic narratives. Whether this leads to genuine connections or simply more manufactured drama remains to be seen. One thing’s for sure: with Maya Jama at the helm, the commentary will be as entertaining as the on-screen antics.
Love Island: All Stars airs Monday, January 13, 2025, at 9:00 PM on ITV2.
