In a bombshell announcement that has sent Love Island fans into meltdown, Season 7 winners Millie Court and Liam Reardon have officially confirmed they will be entering the Love Island All Stars 2026 villa — marking a dramatic return to the show where they first fell in love, just months after their shocking breakup.

The couple, who won the 2021 series in a fairy-tale finale and became one of the franchise’s most beloved pairs, split in July 2025 after three years together. The breakup, described as amicable but painful, left fans heartbroken and speculating about unresolved feelings. Now, with both signed for the All Stars edition set in South Africa, the reunion has sparked intense rumours: is this a genuine second chance at love, or the setup for explosive confrontations under the villa sun?

ITV confirmed the news via a teaser clip on December 30, showing Millie, 28, and Liam, 26, separately packing suitcases with voiceovers hinting at unfinished business. “Sometimes you have to go back to move forward,” Millie says in the promo, while Liam adds: “The villa changed everything once… maybe it can again.”

Producers are reportedly thrilled, viewing the pair as the ultimate “destined reunion” storyline. “Millie and Liam were the golden couple,” an insider told The Sun. “Their return is pure TV gold — viewers will be obsessed with whether they rekindle or clash spectacularly.”

Since the split, both have navigated single life publicly. Millie launched a successful fashion collaboration and focused on personal growth, while Liam returned to his Welsh roots and kept a lower profile. Neither has been linked romantically to anyone new, fuelling speculation that feelings linger.

The All Stars format — bringing back iconic islanders for another shot at love — has already teased drama with returning favourites like Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Liberty Poole. But Millie and Liam’s history elevates the stakes: their original season featured Liam’s infamous Casa Amor detour, which Millie forgave in an emotional recoupling that cemented their victory.

Fans are divided. Some root for reconciliation: “They were endgame — this is fate!” one tweeted. Others predict fireworks: “If Liam pulls the same stunts, Millie will destroy him.” Social media exploded with #MilliamReunion trending worldwide.

Host Maya Jama teased: “The villa’s about to get very interesting. Old flames, new games — anything can happen.”

Filming begins in January for a February premiere, promising sun-soaked drama in the luxurious South African villa. Whether Millie and Liam find their way back to each other or ignite fiery confrontations, one thing is certain: this destined reunion will be unmissable television.

As the countdown begins, Love Island All Stars 2026 looks set to deliver the most emotional — and explosive — season yet. The villa doors are opening… and Millie and Liam are walking through together again.
