Love Island is back and it is going to be spicier than ever. That is the opinion of All Stars legend Gabby Allen, who believes the latest twists will have the drama flowing from the very start.
Gabby Allen Joins the Mirror for an Exclusive Watch-Along
Maya Jama is on hand to welcome the latest group of hopefuls looking for love on the ITV show, and former contestant Gabby is on hand to spill the tea in an exclusive watch-along with the Mirror. The 2017 star and 2025 All Star is bringing her inside knowledge of the show but fully expects bosses to have upped the ante once again for the latest batch.
