As the summer series of Love Island draws to a close, fans of the series are already looking ahead to the freshly-confirmed winter season.

ITV today announced (August 4) that a third series of Love Island spin-off, All Stars, will be going ahead following the success of the summer instalment, which is already the most-streamed series ever on catch-up service ITVX.

The new season of All Stars is slated for release in January 2026, bringing back Islanders from the last 10 years for a second shot at finding love. It will get an extended run next year of six weeks rather than the traditional five-week run.

Dedicated Love Island viewers have already been naming the Islanders they would like to see brought back for the winter season – and the ones they categorically do not want to see again.

Viewers have already threatened to boycott the show if Season 12 Islander Blu Chegini is confirmed for the cast. The 26-year-old entered the villa as part of the original line-up but was ousted by his fellow Islanders in the first week in favour of saving newcomer Shea Mannings.

However, in a surprise twist he was brought back into the villa again weeks later and recoupled with Helena Ford before the public voted to dump the pair. Despite this, he once again re-entered the villa temporarily in Sunday’s episode (August 3) which saw the return of all the past cast members from the series.

“WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE BLU IN THE VILLA AGAIN – on behalf of the entire UK,” penned one fan under a social media post announcing All Stars’ return.

A second added: “I’m telling you this now—if Blu is there, I won’t be watching,” while a third penned: “Just so you know, no one – like LITERALLY NO ONE – wants Blu back, just fyi.”

While fans were united in not wanting Blu back on their TV screens, there were a number of 2025 Islanders fans were desperate to see again.

Casa Amor bombshell Andrada Pop was a popular pick among viewers naming their dream All Stars line-up, as was fellow bombshell Billykiss Azeez and original Islander Alima Gagigo.

Meanwhile controversial finalist Harry Cooksley and bombshell Harrison Solomon, who walked from the series, were also two names thrown into the mix by fans.

“Producers saw Andrada’s takedown of Dejon and immediately green lit another all stars so we can see more of this diva,” a viewer guessed, as another pleaded: “Pls give us dejon Harry & Harrison back.”

“Andrada better have been your first call. That girl is TV GOLD,” another Andrada stan added. Meanwhile a fan desperate for drama suggested: “Ngl you HAVE to bring Harry back for this one lmao.”

An exact release date for 2026’s Love Island All Stars is yet to be announced. However, given that the 2025 winter series kicked off on January 13 and the 2024 series on January 15, it is likely that next year’s season will start on January 12.
