Love Island: All Stars bosses certainly aren't holding back throwing in bombshells to stir the pot into the villa. As well as the likes of Joshua Ritchie, Arabella Chi and Callum Jones already arriving, two more were thrown into the mix on Tuesday 24th January.
The latest bombshells include series six Islander Sophie Piper and series nine heartthrob Tom Clare, and if you didn't already know, Sophie is the younger sister of a very famous name!
Who is Sophie Piper's sister?
Sophie is the younger sister of singer and TV host Rochelle Humes!
Commenting on the news on Instagram, Rochelle joked: 'Got one out the jungle and one going in the villa…can I not have my evenings to myself please family?! 🤣❤️'. (sic)
Speaking about what her family will think of her return to Love Island, 24-year-old Sophie said: "They are going to die seeing me back on their TV screens. It’s going to be a shock. They got so obsessed with the show the first time round."
Sophie was an original Islander during the sixth series of Love Island back in 2019, where she lasted 22 days.
Originally coupling up with Connor Durman, Sophie went on to recouple with Connagh Howard, before going back to Connor. She was then paired with Mike Boateng before being dumped without finding a romantic connection.
Although she didn't find love the first time round, it sounds like that hasn't put Sophie off. Speaking ahead of her entrance into the All Stars villa, she said: "I had a fun experience the first time around but I didn’t go the full way and find love, so I'd love to find someone this time.
"I’m quite chilled and don’t want drama, so I think I will approach this time round in a similar way. I’m a one guy kind of girl."
She added: "It’s a once in a lifetime experience and not something that comes up every day. You get the chance to really get to know someone without social media and the intense environment of going on a date."
