In May 2024, it was confirmed that
Love Island: All Stars would return for a second series to commemorate the ten-year anniversary of
Love Island on ITV2. Prior to the beginning of the series, several former contestants were rumoured to be appearing on the show.
Ovie Soko, who appeared on the
fifth series of
Love Island, said in response to the rumours that he was "never going on
Love Island: All Stars", adding that he [loved] the show but that he felt he was too old to return. Meanwhile
Gemma Owen, a contestant on the
eighth series who was also rumoured to be returning for
All Stars, denied she would be appearing.
Maya Jama was confirmed to be returning as presenter, whilst
Iain Stirling, who has narrated the show since its inception, returned also.
eBay returned as the sponsor for this series. The first trailer for the series aired on 21 December 2024, depicting snippets of paintings featuring body parts of this year's islanders. An artist subsequently states "Madame it's finished" [sic], before host Maya Jama responds "Finished? We're just getting started." The series began airing on 13 January 2025. ==Islanders==
