The line up for Love Island All Stars was confirmed on Monday, with 12 former contestants entering the villa for a second chance at love.
Georgia Harrison, 29, is returning seven years after arriving as a bombshell in season three and is hoping to have a more successful time than her previous 12-day stint.
Speaking ahead of the show launch on Monday, January 15, Georgia revealed her motivation for appearing on the show and confessed she already has her eye on another cast member.
She explained: ‘The last time I went in as a bombshell and I always wondered if I would have found love if I’d gone in a bit earlier. When I heard about Love Island: All Stars, I thought it was meant to be.
‘As much as this years been amazing, it’s been heavy at times and pretty serious with all of my campaigning work.’
Georgia Harrison has revealed the real reason she’s signed up for Love Island All Stars (and she’s already got plans for the first recoupling)
The reality star has been a key campaigner to change the law on revenge porn after her ex Stephen Bear was convicted of secretly filming and releasing a sex tape of the pair.
He was sentenced to 21 months in prison and due to be freed in the coming days.
Georgia continued: ‘This is the last year of my 20’s so I want to go in the Villa and have some fun and hopefully meet someone that I can fall in love with.
‘I’m lucky in the sense that I’ve got everything in my life that I could possibly wish for, apart from love.’
Her luck in romance could well be about to change, however, as one of her dream men is set to enter the villa.
Asked who she would couple up with given the choice of any past Islander, she revealed: ‘Chris Taylor, he’s hilarious and the main thing I’m attracted to is a man who can make me laugh.
‘What a fun guy and like I said, I’m looking for someone to TikTok with so I reckon he’d be game for that sort of stuff!’
As well as having her dream man in the villa, Georgia revealed she feels better prepared for the experience, explaining: ‘This time around I’m going to be more confident, I was 21 the first time around, I’m now 29 and I feel like I know myself fully at this age.
‘I’ve also got new boobs, which is great when you’re in a bikini so they’re ready to rock and roll! I think above all else I’m just going to have as much fun as possible.’

Georgia’s Love Island stint coincides with her ex’s release from prison.
The reality star shared a reflective post ahead of his release, saying: ‘Dear universe… thank you for everything.
‘Thank you for the blessings , thank you for the lessons, thank you for the mistakes that weren’t really mistakes.
‘Thank you for the friends that became angels, thank you for the tears watering the seeds of new beginnings and thank you for the law of attraction…’
Bear, 33, is set to be released after serving 11 months and has vowed to stay away from social media and his previous wild antics when he gets out.
A source told The Sun: ‘Stephen has served his time – and he’s due out of prison in the next few weeks.
‘However, he’s been telling pals he’s not the same man that went into prison.
‘There will be no hopping back on to social media or rolling straight back into the nearest nightclub when he gets out, he says he just wants to get back to east London and his family.’
Last year Georgia endured a horrific trial after she became a victim of revenge porn .
On August 2, 2020, the reality star and her ex boyfriend Bear had sex in his garden, which Bear, 33, secretly filmed on his home CCTV.
He went on to leak the footage online and make £2,000 from selling the clip.
Love Island All Stars launches Monday January 15 at 9pm on ITV1, ITV2, ITVX & STV.

How will you feel if you come across an ex in the Villa or someone you’ve dated from the show since appearing? 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.

I had a great time last series but I want to have an even better time.

If you had to pick your top Islanders from Series 1 to 10 to couple up with who would they be and why? Chris Taylor, he’s hilarious and the main thing I’m attracted to is a man who can make me laugh.

How will you feel if you come across an ex in the Villa or someone you’ve dated from the show since? It will be interesting to see if old flames get reignited. Naturally with Love Island paths are very much crossed and believe me, I have some paths!
Hannah Elizabeth
AGE: 33
SERIES: 1
Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? I’m returning to the Love Island Villa because I did it eight years ago and what an opportunity I never thought I’d get again. I’m not very good at finding love but I had a ball the first time, so I’m going to have a ball again.
You got engaged on the show last time, do you think wedding bells could be on the cards again this time round? Absolutely not, not in the Villa no. Maybe when I get out, but I’d need to give it a bit of time.
Georgia Steel
AGE: 25
SERIES: 4
Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? I’m 25, I have a house, a cat, a nice car – I have everything in life but a boyfriend, so why not give it as go.
You’ve been brave and honest in opening up about being conned by a former partner. How has this experience impacted the way in which you now approach dating?
I take that experience as a really positive reflection now. I look at it as something I had to go through to make me stronger and learn things in life for me to be able to learn what I want in my next partner.
Jake Cornish
AGE: 26
SERIES: 7
How will you feel if you come across an ex in the Villa or someone you’ve dated from the show since appearing? Well there is only one and that’s Liberty. We never ended with any bad blood between us and everything happens for a reason. We just become two different people in the end.
What will you do differently this time round? When it comes to people’s opinions, I don’t sit on the fence anymore. That is my way of life now, so I will take that into the Villa.
Toby Aromolaran
AGE: 24
SERIES: 7
Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? If I’m Single and Love Island is an opportunity for me, how could you turn down the chance to find love again?!
You were in a long term relationship with Chloe Burrows, what do you think her reaction will be when she hears you are going into the Villa? I don’t know how she would take it. We will always have love for each other and I think she would wish me the best of luck, as I would certainly do the same.
Chris Taylor
AGE: 33
SERIES: 9
Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? Last time I was only there for 15 days, so I want to do it and enjoy it all again. I am 33 now and getting on a bit – I am getting ear hair! It would be nice to have a girl to keep my ears trimmed for me!
How did the Barbie Movie come about? I was invited to an afterparty by Margot Robbie and then ended up at an after party with her. I started to panic and make conversation with her, just having really stupid chats. All I can assume is that my silly chat made an impression on Margot Robbie. 18 months later I got an email from Warner Brothers asking do you want to try out for this role as Ken – it was a tumble dryer of emotions.
Luis Morrison
AGE: 29
SERIES: 1
Why are you returning to the famous Love Island Villa? It was the best experience of my life. I found love in the Villa before and who knows if I can find love in there again?
What will you do differently this time round?
I’m a lot older and wiser, so I know what I am getting myself into. I don’t have a game plan at all – I am an open book so I will go with the flow and see what happens.
Anton Danyluk
AGE: 29
SERIES: 5
Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? For me it was a no brainer. I got the call and it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity and probably the best summer I have ever had in my life. Getting the chance to do it twice is going to be unbelievable.
Why do you think the Love Island Villa is the perfect place to find love?
I think this time with Love Island: All Stars, things will be different, as we all understand what it’s like to go on Love Island and the only thing now missing is finding a partner.
Mitchell Taylor
AGE: 27
SERIES: 10
Why are you returning to the Love Island villa? I think I went in with my heart on my sleeve the first time and got hurt and this time I am just going in to enjoy myself and if a connection happens, a connection happens.
In the summer you were given the name ‘Messy Mitch’, and a name that you have taken on as your own, can we expect more of the same in the series? I’ll be honest, I don’t really plan on being ‘Messy Mitch’. It just depends on what day of the week it is. I wear my emotions on my sleeve and what you see is what you get. I am very honest and very opinionated and I think that’s what people like me for. If I don’t agree with something, I’m not going to hold it back.
