It was revealed last month that the ITV dating show is commemorating its 10th anniversary by welcoming back a whole host of its biggest stars.

The one-off special, тιтled Love Island: A Decade of Love, will take on a ‘Gogglebox style format’ as the Islanders will revisit the show’s most iconic moments.

Airing in June, the episode will feature exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes insights as fans are given the chance to catch up with some of their favourite stars.

And now, ITV has revealed exactly which Islanders will be back on screens with Dani Dyer, Curtis Pritchard and lovebirds Liam Reardon and Millie Court all set to return.

Georgia Steel will no doubt revisit her iconic ‘I’m loyal’ catchphrase as she will make a comeback alongside series two winners Cara De La Hoyde-Mᴀssey and Nathan Mᴀssey.

The show’s other successful couples Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan and Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope will also be back to give fans an update on their love stories.

Gabby Allen, who recently split from her All Stars boyfriend Casey O’Gorman, is also returning once again alongside the likes of Hannah Elizabeth, Anton Danyluk, Whitney Adebayo and Catherine Agbaje.

Lastly, Montana Brown – who welcomed her second child with fiancé Mark O’Connor at the start of the year – will also be gracing screens again.

‘Expect big laughs and plenty of heart as we revisit a decade of Love Island magic.’

While Paul Mortimer, Head of Reality, added: ‘Love Island has become a true phenomenon over the past decade, delivering must-see TV moments every summer. 

‘This special offers viewers a chance to relive some of the show’s most iconic moments with the Islanders who made them so memorable.’

The special will air on ITV2 and ITVX ahead of the brand new summer series, which returns to Majorca this June. 

Love Island originally began in 2005 and aired for two series with celebrity contestants, before launching properly with a civilian version in 2015.
