First look at Love Island All Stars 2025 cast as they strip off to swimwear ahead of launch
THE Love Island All Stars 2025 cast have stripped off to their swimwear ahead of the show’s exciting launch.
The hit series is back with a set of very familiar faces all looking for love on the ITV2 dating show.
And the now revealed line-up includes Curtis Pritchard, Luca Bish, Olivia Hawkins, Scott Thomas, Marcel Somerville, Elma Pazar, Ronnie Vint, India Reynolds, Gabby Allen, Nas Majeed, Kaz Crossley, and Catherine Agbaje.
All of which posed with Maya Jama in a very glam snap ahead of the launch.
Maya can be seen centre stage in a beautiful white gown.
Behind here are Olivia, Nas and Kaz sprawled on deck chairs, and in the back stand a sea of bikini-clad and swim short wearing stars.
Gabby Allen looks sensational in her brown swimwear, and India opts for a plunging bikini top in blue.
Elma is fanning herself while stood in a turquoise look, and Catherine can be seen beside her sunning in a blue bikini with an open white shirt on.
Meanwhile, the boys show off their ripped physiques in swim shorts and shirts.
Kaz is a vision in blue as she throws her arms up behind her, and controversial Islander Olivia looks beautiful in white.
The new spin-off series will kick off on 13 January, with contestants already in South Africa and are awaiting their villa entrance.
The former Islanders are currently in hiding and trying to keep a low profile ahead of their All Stars debut.
Speaking about why now, Gabby Allen said: “It’s the trenches out there,” adding: “I feel like I have all my ducks in a row, it has been 8 years since I went into the Villa. I now run my businesses and I’ve grown up a lot… but I just haven’t found ‘the one’ yet.”
Meanwhile Kaz said she’s coming back after a positive time first time round, and shared: “The first experience I had was so amazing and also so much fun! I’m even more mature now so I’m ready to find a relationship.”
And Nas, who rose to fame on the winter series, says he’s looking for someone “who can make [him] laugh.”
Luca Bish is also heading back in, and famously dated Michael Owen’s daughter Gemma, 21, on Love Island.
A TV source said: “This is the last thing Gemma wants because in the last year she’s tried to keep her personal life private.
“Their break-up was shrouded in secrecy and neither has discussed it, but it did not end well.
“He hinted he was blindsided by the break-up when she posted it online and this is his time to spill the beans.”
Another hunk on the lookout for love is Scott Thomas.
An insider said: “Scott is way more mature than he was when he first appeared and wants to show the world a new side.
“He thinks it would be a great way to publicise his podcast and his company.
“He also thinks it could be a lot of fun, and would love to find real romance.”
And Towie fans will be delighted to see Elma grace their screens.
The 30-year-old shot to fame on the fifth series of the ITV2 dating show in 2019 and is now a regular on The Only Way Is Essex.
A source exclusively told us: “Elma is in talks to go into All Stars at some point – her years on Towie mean she’s great TV and she didn’t really get a fair chance at finding love when she was in the villa the first time round.”
Meanwhile Ronnie Vint is relatively new to fame, having starred on Love Island last year.
Ronnie, 28, was spotted by a fellow traveller on board a British Airways flight leaving Gatwick for Cape Town on Sunday night.
India Reynolds is already over in Cape Town.
The model, 33, is currently in hiding in South Africa ahead of her villa entrance.
It comes after India told The Sun in November that she was “in talks” with producers to return to the dating show.
India starred on series five in 2019 and finished third place with basketball player Ovie Soko – but they split just four months after leaving the villa.
Curtis Pritchard is another name whose been around for a while now, after rising to fame on Love Island 2019.
He was coupled up with Amy Hart during his time in the villa but dumped her in memorable scenes after Casa Amor.
She then left the show after having her heart broken.
After his break-up with Amy, Curtis coupled up with Maura Higgins.
The pair came fourth on Love Island and dated for another nine months before breaking up at the beginning of 2020 after Curtis was accused of cheating on her.
Then there’s Marcel Somerville, who has signed up for All Stars – despite STILL being married.
The reality star, who appeared on series three back in 2017, is back for another villa rendezvous.
In February it was revealed that Marcel, 38, had walked out on his wife Rebecca Vieira after she was accused of cheating on him with a US pop star.
Days later Rebecca admitted to “cheating” on the Blazin Squad star and issued a grovelling apology.
An insider said Marcel is set to return to the villa – but some fans have insisted that he should “get a divorce” before going on the show.
And Catherine Agbaje is looking for another shot at love.
The 24-year-old first found fame during the summer series last year but failed to find a connection.
Catherine enjoyed brief romances with Zachariah Noble, Scott van der Sluis and Elom Ahlijah-Wilson during her time on the show.
