Curtis Pritchard and Lucinda Strafford strutted into the Love Island: All Stars villa as bombshells on Friday as their return marks their fourth time on the hit ITV show.
The professional dancer, 29, made his Love Island debut in 2019 for series five, finishing fourth with Maura Higgins. He then entered the villa again in 2023 for The Games spin-off and most recently won All Stars in 2025 with Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.
Meanwhile Lucinda, 26, rejoined her season seven co-star Millie Court after also taking part in season five of the Australia edition in 2023 and winning season two of Love Island Games in 2025.
Now, Curtis has sad he is not afraid to ‘be more blunt’ and has his sights set on Islanders Samie Elishi and Millie.
And the blonde beauty wants to try spark a romance with Ciaran Davies and has sworn off Scott van-der-Sluis as a ‘busybody’.
Curtis explained his intentions going into the villa are that he will try to get to know everyone but ultimately he is a one woman man who is not interested in love triangles.

He said: ‘I normally throw all my eggs into one basket… I’m probably going to end up doing that again.
‘I like to focus on one person. I’ve never been a bombshell before, so I don’t quite know what to expect coming in as one. I’ll try and talk to everyone the first couple of days.’
The star also explained who has got eyes for: ‘I’ve got to say…Samie is unbelievably attractive. I don’t know if our personalities will work, we only had a quick little chat last year. Maybe I’ll have a little chat with her.
‘Millie is a big definite yes for me. She’s very, very attractive. She seems like she has a real grounded, confident and down-to-earth personality. I don’t feel like she wants drama for no reason, which is a yes for me.
‘But I don’t know until I’m in there, I can see me and Helena getting on really well with our personalities, too.’
Curtis revealed that he is still good friends with his ex Ekin-Su, who he split from in May 2025, and thinks will give her blessing.
He said: ‘I think Ekin-Su will throw her support behind me. We didn’t end badly at all, we’re friends. I invited her to my next fight, we message every now and again.’
The star added that this time around he is going to be more straight forward when dealing with other islanders.

Reflecting on her previous stints in the villa, Lucinda said that now she is older and more confident she won’t be afraid to speak her mind
Despite having already appeared on the show three times, the beauty said she is single and determined to find love
Lucinda and Curtis shocked fans and the islanders when they walked in as bombshells on Friday night’s episode
‘I think I’ll be a little bit more direct, if people are talking rubbish or causing arguments, I think I’ll be more blunt and straight to the point perhaps unlike what I was before.’
Reflecting on her previous stints in the villa, Lucinda said that now she is older and more confident she won’t be afraid to speak her mind.
‘I was quite young when I entered the Love Island Villa in Series 7, I was overthinking things loads.
‘Now that I’m older, I’m definitely more confident in my own skin with much more life experience, so I think my approach will naturally be different from before.
‘I am a girls’ girl but I don’t want to be afraid to say what I think and see what happens. I don’t want to waste time, I’m 26. I want to be with someone I can see a future with.’
Curtis most recently won All Stars in 2025 with Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu before they split just months later in May that year (pictured in February)
Despite having already appeared on the show three times, the beauty said she is single and determined to find love.
‘I guess I’ve been on a bit of a “Love Island” journey over the past few years but I’ve not found the ultimate one.
‘I’m single, so having been given the opportunity to try and find a guy on Love Island: All Stars, why would I say no?!
‘Love Island is such a fun experience, I love being in the Villa. You’re just flirting away living your best life with all of these sexy guys and making new friends.’
Lucinda then explained who she’s got her eyes set on: ‘I think Ciaran’s really good looking. I know Scott, I think he’s a bit too “busybody” for me…Sean is quite funny, he’s not my usual type, but I think I’d get along with him well. Shaq’s good looking as well and seems really nice.’
