A former Love Island winner is said to be in talks to return for another stint on the ITV2 dating show
Former Love Island champion Jess Harding is reportedly in discussions to join the upcoming All Stars spin-off series.
Jess, who clinched victory in the tenth series of the ITV show alongside Sammy Root, is said to be in line for the next competition set to take place in South Africa next year, reports the Mirror.
Alima Gagigo, another former contestant who was eliminated on Day 24 of the 12th series, is also rumoured to be in talks about a potential return. Andrada Pop, a bombshell from Casa Amor earlier this year, has been approached by producers as well, according to The Sun.
An insider revealed: “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 Sun suggests that Andrada’s fiery outbursts during the final and her dramatic exit from the show – which is hosted by TV star Maya Jama – have made her a top pick among showrunners.
Former Love Islanders spanning the programme’s decade-long history will make their way back to the iconic Villa in South Africa for the new series of the All Stars show, though this time they are set to spend six weeks rather than five in the famous compound.
Discussing the show’s renewal, Mike Spencer-Hayter, Creative Director at Lifted Entertainment, commented: “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 first series of the All Stars edition of the show aired last year, and Molly Smith and Tom Clare were the winners. The second series followed earlier this year, with Gabby Allen and Casey O’Gorman claiming victory.
