LOVE Island fans will be pleased to know that the show’s daily podcast is back for All Stars.
Love Island: The Morning After is returning for another series, however, one of the show’s stars is missing from the presenter line-up.
Over the years, the daily podcast has proved to be a huge hit with fans.
And it has been presented by a whole host of stars and former Islanders.
For the summer series of Love Island, last year’s All Stars contestant Chris Taylor hosted it alongside Indiyah Polack.
However, The Sun can reveal because the former Islander is busy taking part in Dancing On Ice, he is unable to do the podcast this year.
Instead India will be joined by popular 2019 Islander Amy Hart, who’s ex-boyfriend Curtis Pritchard is actually appearing on All Stars.
A source told us: “Chris is gutted he’s not hosting it this year but he’ll be way too busy with Dancing On Ice.
“Amy Hart and Indiyah Polack are taking the reigns and Chris hopes he’ll jump on as a guest at some point.”
Before Chris hosted the show, I’m A Celeb winner Sam Thompson hosted the show.
However, following his jungle win in 2023, the reality star has become too busy to do the podcast anymore.
Meanwhile, with launch night just days away, there is already a HUGE twist waiting for the legendary Islanders.
So far 12 stars have been unveiled are heading into the villa.
All of the Islanders, who have appeared across series two to 11 of the ITV2 dating hit, were once able to step forward for who they fancied and choose their pairs themselves.
But The Sun revealed that for Love Island All Stars, the fans have now got the chance to decide who will be matched with who on Day One.
Voting opened at 7.30am this morning, and fans cast their vote on ITV’s Love Island app.
A viewer vote was also used to pick the first set of couples for All Stars last year.
That saw fans putting ex-couple Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish together.
This didn’t go down well at all with Jake, who quit within days.
The Sun also revealed how the All Stars South African villa will see its living room filled with beds.
Fans think this is a sign that the series could be the biggest one yet, with more bombshells arriving than ever.
Love Island All Stars kicks off on ITV2 on Monday, January 13 at 9pm.
Love Island All Stars is returning to TV for season 2.
Here we take you through the line-up of Islanders’ who are set to go into the villa so far.
Bombshell rumours
Each series brings with it a string of hot single bombshells making their epic entrance into the villa.
Here’s who is rumoured to be going into the villa so far:
LUKE LITTLER has jetted off for a well-deserved break after his World Championship success.
The 17-year-old became the youngest ever winner of the competition when he smashed Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in last Friday’s final.
Littler’s win pocketed him a whopping £500,000 and he has spent some of his fortune on a holiday.
The Nuke has flown to Alicante in Spain to soak up some winter sun.
Littler posted a brief clip on Instagram him strolling along the Playa del Albir promenade.
Golden sands and crystal clear blue seas are seen in his video.
The popular beach is found between the towns of Benidorm and Altea.
It is unclear who he is on holiday with, but his brother could be with him as he celebrates turning 21 this month.
Leon told SunSport that he would do “the celebrating for Luke” as you “cannot do much” with a 17-year-old.
Meanwhile, in Littler’s home town of Warrington, the teenager was congratulated with a sign on a bus.

THE heartbroken mum of a 26-year-old woman who was cut into pieces and dumped in a shopping bag by her husband said she “knew he would kill her”.
Nicholas Metson, 28, stabbed Holly Bramley, 26, to death at their flat in Lincoln then hacked her up into over 200 parts in the bathtub.
The killer paid school pal, Joshua Hancock, £50 to help dispose of her remains in the River Witham ten miles from the home.
Holly’s body was found in a number of shopping bags on March 25 2023.
Police recovered 224 separate body parts but bits of her heart, lungs and fingers were missing.
Metson was jailed for life with a minimum of 19 years after pleading guilty to murder and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice last year.
Now, Holly’s devastated mother Annette Bramley has spoken out after horrific ordeal.
The 65-year-old mum was never invited to Holly’s wedding and said she didn’t even know it was happening.
In her first interview following Metson’s conviction last year, Annette told the Mail: “I knew he would kill her.
“I told police he would murder her; I told anyone who would listen. Her family could all see it, but nobody could stop it.”
Holly and Nick first met at Boston College in Lincolnshire in 2016 and married in 2021.
From the start, Metson never made any effort to meet or speak to Holly’s family.
Annette Googled his name and discovered he had been convicted for sharing explicit photos of a previous partner.
She added: “Holly very rarely came home, but one day she turned up at our door devastated, sobbing and saying he had killed their puppy.
“I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.
“While Holly was in the shower, he’d put her little dog in the washing machine and turned it on. Holly found the dog and managed to break open the washing machine and pull it out, but he took the dog off her and put it in the shower with the water over its face until it drowned.
“I can’t explain how terrified I was for her safety. I begged her to never go back.”
Annette managed to get Holly to agree to report Metson to the RSPCA, hoping this would be the end of their relationship – but a few days later, Holly had returned to Metson’s flat, where her other pets were still living.
Over the years, Holly would come home to Annette with more and more horrific tales of Metson’s abuse.
Three kittens had been drowned in the kitchen and one of Holly’s hamsters was put in a food processor.
Annette and her husband, Mick, 65, a former soldier in the Royal Parachute regiment, ordered Holly to stop seeing Metson – and banned him from their home.
But within months Holly had arranged to move in with him and left the family home without saying goodbye leaving Annette “heartbroken”.
At first, Annette knew where the couple lived and would encourage the friends and family Holly had not yet cut off to visit the pair and check she was ok.
But after they moved house in 2021, Annette never saw her daughter again before her tragic death.
Detective Chief Inspector Rachael Cox of Lincolnshire Police said: “We are indebted to Annette. Despite her grief she is determined to work with us to help us reach those experiencing domestic abuse.
“She is an inspiration and a reminder of why we do this job.”
The horror unfolded in 2023 when police were scrambled to the home following a concern for welfare report.
On March 24, police attended the marital home after receiving a call regarding Holly’s welfare.
Metson callously claimed his wife had attacked him before leaving the flat to meet with two mental health workers.
Although the flat smelt of bleach and there were bloodstained sheets in the bath and a saw on the kitchen floor, officers left.
When they exposed Metson’s version of events as a lie, police returned later that day to find the saw had been stashed in a cupboard.
Sickeningly, the killer joked Holly “might be hiding under the bed”.
He was arrested on suspicion of murder but gave a no comment interview to police.
The following day, a member of the public spotted the plastic bags floating in the river so examined one.
Gordon Aspden KC, prosecuting, said: “At this point he made a grim discovery.
“At first he could not believe what he had seen. He was looking at a severed hand.”
Holly’s head had been severed and shaved, with a further 224 remains fished from the water.
Women's Aid has this advice for victims and their families:
If you are a victim of domestic abuse, SupportLine is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 6pm to 8pm on 01708 765200. The charity’s email support service is open weekdays and weekends during the crisis – messageinfo@supportline.org.uk.
Women’s Aid provides a live chat service – available weekdays from 8am-6pm and weekends 10am-6pm.
You can also call the freephone 24-hour National Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0808 2000 247.
A pathologist found four wounds consistent with a sharp incision but due to the brutality of the dismemberment, a cause of death could not be established.
Police later recovered a set of garden pruners, two knives and a claw hammer from the flat.
Following the murder, heartless Metson withdrew £50 from his wife’s bank account and made a number of chilling searches.
These included “What benefits do I get if my wife has died” and “Can someone haunt me after they die”.
Police also found CCTV showing Metson moving his wife’s remains from their 14th floor home using a Morrison’s shopping trolley.
He then put the bags in his car and paid former school friend Hancock £50 to help him dispose of the remains.
Metson at first spun a web of lies to cover up his crimes but later pleaded guilty to murder.

ALDI Ireland fans are rushing to buy €12.99 item that will “keep your home warmer” – and it’s “easy to install”.
The Irish retailer has radiator reflectors in stores for only €12.99.
A radiator reflector is a tool designed to improve the efficiency of a radiator by reflecting heat back into the home rather than allowing it to escape through the wall.
They’re made of materials like aluminium or foil, and placed behind radiators to direct the heat into the room.
This can help reduce your heating costs and improve comfort by ensuring that more warmth is distributed throughout the room its in.
It reads on Aldi’s website: “Help to keep your home warmer in the winter with the SuperFOIL Radiator Reflector.
“Easy to install and can be cut to fit your radiator, it features an internal bubble structure for additional thermal performance.”
The product is from the hugely popular brand SuperFOIL and it comes in dimensions of approximately 0.6 x 3 metres.
It comes with bubble foil construction and built in adhesive strips which secures them in place against the wall.
What’s more, it cuts heat loss of up to 86 per cent and they’re cut to size to use behind any radiator.
The item is set to sell out quick, so shoppers must act fast.
This comes after Aldi Ireland has released lots of new winter staples including radiators for only €39.99 to help “conquer the cold snap”.
An oil-filled radiator is a type of heating device that uses oil as a heat reservoir.
The oil inside the radiator is heated by an electric element, and the heat is then radiated into the room.
These radiators are known for their ability to retain heat for a longer period of time even after they are turned off, making them perfect for homes during winter.
It reads on their website: “Get Set This Winter with Our Cost-Effective Oil Filled Radiator.
“It heats up quickly and stays warm long after the power is switched off. Perfect for cosy winter nights.”
The bargain buy has three heat settings and an adjustable thermostat – allowing buyers to choose what temperature they like.
It also has overheat protection and built in safety tip switches in place.
What’s more, it comes with easy moving wheels allowing you to transport it around the home.
The oil-filled radiator is available in stores nationwide on January 12.
The German discount supermarket chain came to Ireland in 1999.
Aldi’s first few shops opened in November 1999, with locations in Sandyford, Dublin, and Ballincollig, Cork.
By the mid-2000s, Aldi bosses had opened numerous stores, focusing on providing high-quality products at low prices.
As the recession hit 2008-2012, Aldi’s popularity grew as consumers became more price-conscious.
The supermarket giant continued it’s expansion in Ireland between 2013-2018, while refurbishing existing stores.
By 2018, Aldi had over 130 shops throughout the country.
The chain began to focus on expanding its range of Irish-made products and supporting local producers.
In 2023, Aldi had over 140 stores in Ireland.
The store invested in sustainability initiatives, such as reducing plastic packaging and increasing the availability of organic and eco-friendly products.
Aldi chiefs said: “At Aldi we are committed to supporting Irish suppliers. Developed in partnership with Bord Bia, Grow with Aldi is designed to help the very best Irish suppliers develop their brand.
“To date, we’ve invested €10 million in our Grow with Aldi development programme in a bid to find the very best Irish suppliers.
“As a result, for a limited time only there are over 47 new products, from 27 Irish suppliers available in store.”
Aldi have introduced technological advancements with self-checkout systems and contactless payment options.
PEOPLE have been blasted for “pure stupidity” after being left stranded in the snow at a popular beauty spot that was hit hard by the ferocious cold blast this week.
Wicklow County Council urged people to stay away from the Wicklow Mountains this week after inches of snow fell and freezing temperatures caused “treacherous” conditions in the area and left roads impassable.
The Sally Gap has been closed off to the public after cars full of people keen to take in the snowy scenery were left stuck in the snow or abandoned on the narrow roads.
Dublin-Wicklow Mountain Rescue Team urged people to stay well away from the area after spending the week responding to “a number of incidents” in the area – including “stranded vehicles on impassable roads”.
The DWMRT confirmed that over the past 48 hours alone, they have had four callouts to assist with stranded vehicles in the Sally Gap and Wicklow Gap area.
And sharing a video, above, of conditions in the area, they said: “Here’s a short dash-cam view of just how treacherous the conditions are.
“Our message for the coming days is simple: Stay local, stay warm and stay safe.”
The area received heavy snow over the past few days – and there’s no sign of conditions improving anytime soon after temperatures plunged as low as -8C in some areas last night.
And Gardai also joined in the call for people to completely avoid the Wicklow Mountains as concerns grew over lingering snow, ice, frost and freezing fog.
A Garda spokesperson confirmed that they issued fines to 15 drivers who parked their cars on narrow roads around the Sally Gap.
They said: “We understand that people want to take in the snowy scenery but please help us out and be responsible. The area is impassable so please avoid, thank you.”
Wicklow County Council also urged people to stay away from the “impassable” area and confirmed that roads on higher surfaces were being cleared but elevated areas still poss the risk of “persistently treacherous” road conditions.
They warned: “All road users are urged to exercise extreme caution when travelling in elevated areas due to persistently treacherous road conditions.
“Even after weather warnings are lifted or downgraded, many roads may remain hazardous for days due to a dangerous combination of rain, sleet, snow, ice, and extremely low temperatures.
“Please avoid any unnecessary journeys to ensure your safety and the safety of others.”
Council bosses also warned that cars parked on the narrow roads at Sally Gap prevents gritters and other road-clearing machinery from doing their job effectively.
People on social media blasted those that had made the journey up the mountain unnecessarily, with some saying the drivers showed “no consideration” for locals in the area and another claiming they were “snow tourists”.
One said: “Inconsiderate in the extreme. No thought for the services who risk themselves to help those in genuine need. Hit where it hurts – in the pocket.”
Another added: “Some people are unbelievable and very silly.”
A third simply said: “Pure stupidity.”
