Love Island All Stars viewers rejoiced as Mitchel Taylor was finally sent packing from the villa on Tuesday night’s episode.
The former gas engineer, 27, and Liberty Poole, 24, were voted by the public the least compatible couple and were sent their marching orders by host Maya Jama.
But in a brutal twist, Maya, 29, dropped a parting bombshell to the rest of the couples – they were required to vote for the least compatible pair who would also be evicted.
And in a spoiler for Wednesday night’s show, viewers recognised two familiar faces – Joanna Chimonides and Casey O’Gorman, 26, – heading into the villa as bombshells.
On Tuesday, Maya entered the South African villa and ordered the couples to stand in a line.

She then announced the order they were standing in went from most to least compatible.
Molly Smith and Tom Clare placed first, with her ex Callum Jones following second with Georgia Steel.
Liberty and Mitch placed last after Monday’s episode where she told him he had the ’emotional maturity of a two-year old’. They were then told they had to pack their bags.
Viewers took to X, formerly Twitter, as they reacted to Mitch and Liberty’s dumping.
They wrote: ‘So we get rid of Mitch but then have to endure Casey’ and ‘Stop I can’t even feel bad for Lib as she went with Mitch’.
‘Mitch really dragged her down. He’s actually terrible’.
The pair had a rocky relationship since they were first coupled-up early on in the series.
Liberty was first paired by the public with her ex Jake Cornish but, after he left the show, she explored her connection with former gas engineer Mitch.

While they first appeared to be getting on well, it seemed Mitchel had different ideas as he told her he was open to getting to know the other female Islanders, leaving her in tears.
This week she was left sobbing again after chatting to him about how they felt about one another despite officially ending things last week as he planned to pursue a connection with Georgia Harrison.
Liberty told him: ‘I think I deserve better. Obviously I hope all the best for you and Georgia. We’ll be friends.’
She then gave him a hug before quickly turning on her heels and saying ‘see you later’ before walking off.
Lib was later seen shedding a tear as she recounted the conversation to her fellow Islanders, prompting viewers to take to social media to implore her to stop crying over Mitchel.
Joanna was the latest bombshell to join Love Island alongside Casey who starred in series nine and was previously linked to Georgia Harrison.
Viewers will remember Joanna coupling up with ex-boyfriend Michael Griffiths after they met in Casa Amor, which left his partner at the time, Amber Gill, heartbroken.
But Amber went on to win the series and the £50,000 cash prize with Greg O’Shea after fans fumed over the way she was treated by Michael.
As she enters the show for a second time, Joanna, who dated England footballer Ben Chilwell, has vowed not to play it safe – and will tread on toes if she needs to.

Molly vocalised her anger over Georgia getting in the way of her blossoming romance with Tom – despite her being coupled up with Callum, who she also used to date
A TV insider told : ‘Joanna is the perfect signing.
‘She really turned heads back in 2019 and broke up one of the villa’s strongest couples… and this year she’s hoping to meet someone she can settle down with so there’s everything to play for.’
Joanna says she regrets the way she handled her time in the villa during her first stint, where she entered as a Casa Amor bombshell and made a beeline for Michael.
But now she’s looking to do things differently, saying: ‘I won’t play it safe this time round.
‘Last time I found someone who I really got along with but I didn’t give myself the chance to get to know anyone else.
‘If I fancied someone else I kind of restricted getting to know them out of respect with the person I was with.’
Before finding fame on Love Island, Joanna dated England footballer Ben in 2018 – and he was reportedly ‘furious’ when she signed up to the show.
Their relationship ended badly when Ben finished with Joanna because he wanted to party and enjoy life as a single man.
Casey, meanwhile, appeared on the winter series of Love Island last year, and after a turbulent on/off romance with Claudia Fogarty (pictured on Love Island)
It has also been rumoured Joanna’s ex Michael might make an appearance on the show.
Casey, meanwhile, appeared on the winter series of Love Island last year, and after a turbulent on/off romance with Claudia Fogarty, was sensationally dumped from the villa on day 51.
He later revealed that he and Claudia engaged in a ‘friends with benefits’ relationship after Love Island.
The recruitment consultant and the daughter of Superbike champion Carl Fogarty fell for each other during the 2023 winter series.
However, Casey soon had his head turned by bombshell Rosie Seabrook, leaving Claudia devastated.
But things quickly ended there too, with Casey ghosting Rosie only two weeks after coming out of the South African villa.

LOVE ISLAND ALL STARS: MEET THE CAST
Kaz Kamwi
AGE: 29
SERIES: 7
Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? To be totally honest, I actually really want to find love.
I had a great time last series but I want to have an even better time.
How will you feel if you come across an ex in the Villa or someone you’ve previously dated from the show? The thing is, I’m a bad b*tch so I will handle it with as much grace as I can.
Georgia Harrison
AGE: 29
SERIES: 3
Why are you returning to the Love Island Villa? This is the last year of my 20s 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.
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. 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!
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.
Molly Smith
AGE: 29
SERIES: 6
What do you need to know? Molly entered her season as a Casa Amor bombshell and managed to turn Callum Jones’ head.
It’s believed she ended things with Callum after three years because she ‘wanted to get engaged’ but the offer was seemingly not forthcoming.
Arabella Chi
AGE: 32
SERIES: 5
What do you need to know? Despite a fleeting stint on her series she has hit the headlines with a series of high profile romances since, most recently with footballer Ruben Dias.
She was linked to former French rugby player Yoann Huget and DJ Tom Zanetti. She also enjoyed a brief dalliance with fellow All Star Toby Aromolaran.
Tom Clare
AGE: 24
SERIES: 9
Why are you returning to the Villa?
I found love last time, so I am back and ready to give it another go.
What will you do differently this time round?
Last time I did exactly what I wanted and got the girl that I wanted, so no I wouldn’t do anything different.
Why do you think the Villa is the perfect place to find love?
When you’re with someone 24/7 you really get to know them. It can be such an alien environment, so you really get to know someone in a short space of time. It’s Love Island – it’s the best place!
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: 5
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.
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.
Mitchel Taylor

I had a fun experience the first time around but I didn’t go the full way and find love, so I’d love to find someone this time.
What will you do differently this time round?
I’m quite chilled and don’t want drama, so I think I will approach this time round in a similar way. I’m a one guy kind of girl.
Why do you think the Villa is the perfect place to find love?
It’s a once in a lifetime experience and not something that comes up every day.
