Love Island: All Stars 2024 set to reunite Jake and Liberty – forget the other cast, it’s all the drama we want to see

Will Liberty and Jake give each other a second chance?

The wait is almost over as 12 former Islanders are headed for South Africa to star in the first ever Love Island: All Stars series as they try out for love a second time.

And while the line-up has received mixed reviews from fans online, there are two inclusions who are setting tongues wagging.

The series, filmed in South Africa, will see series 7’s Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish reunited.

Love Island: All Stars – What happened between Jake and Liberty?

Liberty and Jake were coupled up in the 2021 series of the show and quit just days before the final.

Their shock exit from the villa came amid worries from their fellow Islanders that Jake was faking his feelings for Liberty in a bid to win the show.

After a rocky time in the villa, Liberty was delighted when Jake told her he loved her – but her friends weren’t so happy.

At the time, Chloe Burrows said: “You’re going to hate me. Do you not think he’s telling you what you want to hear?”

When Liberty asked if the other girls felt the same, Faye Winter admitted: “I don’t know baby.”

Chloe added: “I don’t think he would say something if he didn’t mean it but I also think is it convenient that he said it this evening after all of this?”

Days later, Liberty told Jake she would be leaving the villa, and Jake left with her.

They will now reunite in front of the nation – and a whole batch of other fellow Islanders.

Speaking ahead of their reunion, Liberty says: “It’s always going to be awkward isn’t it? It’s always going to be weird seeing someone that you’ve been with getting with someone else.

“I wish my exes nothing but the best. I’m going to be focused on my own journey so if it was to happen I won’t be worrying about them – so I’ll stay focussed on my goal, which is to find love.”

Love Island: All Stars 2024 cast revealed

Viewers have taken to X to discuss Liberty and Jake both being back on the show.

One wrote: “Liberty and Jake going back in Love Island at the same time is actually so messy.”

A second commented: “Liberty and Jake being on the same show again is hilarious.”

Meanwhile, a third chimed: “Whoever had control of that Love Island line-up needs to be arrested.”

“Jake and Liberty in the same season,” they continued alongside a string of laughing emojis.

We’ve already got the popcorn ready!

Series 3 bombshell Georgia Harrison will be returning to the villa after almost seven years away.

Georgia is probably best known for stealing eventual winner Kem Cetinay from Amber Davies in an explosive recoupling.

She has since starred in an ITV documentary about the case and published a book about the ordeal.

Georgia Steel, series 4

The “100% loyal” Georgia Steel will be representing series 4 in the All Stars series.

Georgia made headlines for coining the catchphrase when speaking about herself in the villa.

She was coupled up with Josh Denzel before Kaz Crossley stole him during the dramatic Casa Amor twist.

She eventually coupled up with Sam Bird, but the pair split in October 2018 when Sam accused Georgia of not being that loyal after all.

Anton Danyluk, series 5

Anton Danyluk was in no less than five couples during his original stint on Love Island.

He was originally paired with Amy Hart, who was quickly stolen from him by Curtis Pritchard.

The pair finished in fifth place, splitting just five weeks later.

Last year, Chris hit the big screen when he landed a minor role in box office smash Barbie alongside Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.

A late arrival to the series, it seemed she wouldn’t find love until she coupled up with Luke Mabbott.

The couple finished in third place, just split just three months after the final.

Away from the show, Demi bravely battled thyroid cancer and was thankfully given the all clear in June 2023.

Mitchel Taylor, series 10

“Messy Mitch” was in a couple with Molly Marsh, and refused to accept there wasn’t a spark between them when she wanted to explore other options.

He later recoupled with Leah Taylor, Jess Harding, Abi Moores and Ella Barnes before being dumped two days before the final.
