Love Island bombshell Danielle Sellers left some viewers scratching their heads following her arrival in the villa this week over her ‘unrecognisable’ appearance.
Danielle, 29, spent just five days in the Mallorcan villa back in 2017 during the third series of the ITV2 reality dating show before being dumped by Marcel Somerville.
However, after the time that has passed, her short original stint and her transformed look, viewers admitted they couldn’t place the new All Stars arrival.
Even the show’s voiceover Iain Stirling weighed in on the situation and joked that it didn’t recognise the newcomer either.
Danielle entered this show with cropped locks and a more pared back look than her first time in the villa, after previously sporting full glam and long hair extensions.
Taking to X after her arrival to share their confusion, viewers said: ‘I’ve been watching Love Island since the beginning of time and I honestly cannot recall a Danielle from series three?’

‘Everyone watching Love Island and seeing tomorrow’s bombshell Danielle – I’m sorry do I know you?’; ‘Ian saying he forgot who Danielle is LMAOOOO real’; ‘I am a die hard Love Island watcher since the very first series… I’ve no bloody idea who Danielle is, soz I’m with Ian’.
Danielle has already caused a stir in the villa after asking Curtis Pritchard to spend a night away in the hideaway with her, despite him being ‘closed off’ with Ekin-Su.
Wednesday night’s episode ended in tears after Ekin-Su spotted Curtis having a cosy chat with Danielle as his head seemingly turned over the bombshell.
During her time on the show in 2017, Danielle enjoyed a brief romance with Jonny Mitchell and was later linked to the late Mike Thalassitis outside of the show.
Formerly a model, Danielle has carved out a career as an influencer – focusing on cooking on her popular page.
Before reentering the villa, Danielle revealed that she is looking to find the man of her dreams as she returns.
After appearing on the show as a bombshell in Casa Amor last time, Danielle said she was hoping she finds more luck this time round.
She said: ‘I was a lot younger going in the first time, I was 21! I entered during Casa Amor and lots of the boys were in strong couples! 8 years on, I’m older and know what I want, so I’m going to just go for it!’

Danielle arrived on the show on Wednesday night alongside series 10 winner Sammy Root, who has his sights set on Elma Pazar.
They were brought in to spice things up after Kaz Crossley, Montel McKenzie and Nas Majeed were all sent home on Tuesday in a shock mass dumping.
Sammy bagged the cash prize after winning the series alongside Jess Harding but called off their romance soon after they returned home.
Speaking about his fresh chance at love, Sammy explained: ‘It did work out for me the first time, but things changed when I left the Villa. Hopefully this time round, I’ll leave with a relationship that goes the distance.
‘Last time I was very much a boy and was immature at times in terms of not thinking about my actions beforehand.
Love Island: All Stars continues on ITV2 at 9:00pm.
