GABBY Allen has revealed the Love Island lad she’s already got her eye on ahead of Monday night’s launch show.
The fitness expert previously hit it off with Marcel Somerville in the villa back in 2017 and they were together for close to a year before Marcel cheated on holiday.

Blazin’ Squad singer Marcel is also taking part in All Stars and, while Gabby wants to have a friendship with her ex, a romantic reunion isn’t on her radar.
Instead it’s series two legend Scott Thomas, 36, who’s piqued her interest.
She said: “Scott Thomas going in isn’t he? Because he’s a bit older, he’s like lived his life. I’m not saying him necessarily, but someone that’s kind of a bit older and got their sh*t together. That would be great.
“But I don’t know how many of them exist that aren’t in relationships from Love Island. So we shall see.”
Surprisingly, Gabby hasn’t had much luck finding a man since her last relationships with Rak-Su singer Myles Stephenson and Brandon Myers.
It explains why she’s returning to the show for another shot at love.
“You know what my DMs are dead,” admits Gabby. “I am into fitness and strong, and maybe that’s not everybody’s cup of tea.
“People might come go on to my Instagram and be like ‘oh, I’m not sure’.
“But then hopefully when they meet me in real life they’re like ‘oh, she’s better in real life’.”
Gabby’s past romances have been nothing if not turbulent.
She was once linked with former Towie hunk Dan Osborne, who is married to Jacqueline Jossa, which ended their friendship.
Rumours circulated after they looked close on a yacht in Marbella an Dan temporarily split from Jacqueline as a result.
But to this day both parties maintain their innocence and Gabby cut all contact with Dan.
She said: “That literally hasn’t crossed my mind for years.
“I feel like I’m so far removed from that situation now, that I don’t know, it’s mad that people would like even bring it up but I suppose people are interested in that aren’t they?
“I mean me and Dan were just mates, but we weren’t that good mates to like warrant continuing a friendship.”
The blonde beauty went on to wish the couple well and said she had hoped that everyone had moved on.
“It’s like that was a long time ago and we knew each other for a very short amount of time and that was it,” she shared.
“I just hope that, like, that doesn’t cause issues for, like, them because it was a very long time and I feel like everybody’s moved on and I hope they’re really happy.”
