Jess Harding for Love Island All Stars S3 / ITV
Age: 25
From: Uxbridge
Show History: Series 10, Winner with Sammy Root
Why did you want to return to Love Island?
“Even though I ended up winning the series with Sammy, I felt like I had a bit of a rocky ride the first time and I feel like I’ve matured a lot more since. I was 22, now I’m 25, I feel like every situation I’ve been in since then has been a lesson in knowing what I want and don’t want. I really want to meet someone and settle down.”
What will you do differently this time?
“I don’t want to be a pushover. I was the nice girl in the corner. But now my confidence has grown; I’ve got a great personality, I’m nice looking, if you don’t want me, someone else will be lucky to have me.”
What has been going on in your dating life since we last saw you?
“Well Sammy and I broke up and then I had another boyfriend up until six months ago. The last six months I’ve been partying, holidaying, working and just living life.”
What are you most looking forward to about returning to the villa?
“Just the whole experience. It’s so exciting. It was surreal all the support as well, you don’t realise how many people are behind you, it’s lovely.”
Love Island All Stars returns soon on ITV2 and ITVX.
