Since her debut as a Casa Amor bombshell on Love Island this year, Andrada Pop has earned herself icon status.
The 27-year-old nail technician, personal trainer and model appeared on Season 12 and initially pursued a connection with Dejon Noel-Williams. However, it was Ben Holbrough who coupled up with her and brought her back to the main villa.
She quickly earned a legion of fans for her straight-talking and no nonsense attitude during her short stint on the show, including taking Dejon to task over his flirty antics away from the eyes of his partner, Meg Moore, and calling out Ben during the live final for cheating on her at his first event outside of the villa.
Following the end of the summer series, attention has now turned to who will be cast in the upcoming winter series. Love Island: All Stars has been confirmed for an extended six-week run in January 2026.

The format brings back past Love Island stars from across the last 10 years and puts them through the experience all over again. Fans were quick to name a number of Season 12 stars they’d love to see again, with Andrada being a top pick.
“Producers saw Andrada’s takedown of Dejon and immediately green lit another all stars so we can see more of this diva,” a viewer guessed, as another pleaded: “Pls give us dejon Harry & Harrison back.”
“Andrada better have been your first call. That girl is TV GOLD,” another Andrada stan begged of producers.

Andrada herself has now weighed in on whether she would get involved in All Stars if asked, and it’s good news for fans of the budding reality star.
In an interview with The Sun, she shared: “I would definitely do it! I didn’t find love this time round so would definitely be up for giving it another go.”
An exact release date for 2026’s Love Island All Stars – which will be filmed in South Africa – is yet to be announced. However, given that the 2025 winter series kicked off on January 13 and the 2024 series on January 15, it is likely that next year’s season will start on January 12.

Love Island’s creative director Mike Spencer-Hayter said: “Love Island: All Stars has quickly established itself as a stand-alone hit, keeping fans of the show gripped by iconic Islanders from the past 10 years returning for another chance to find love.
“We are very excited about series three and you can expect the twists and turns to continue in All Stars, after an incredible smash hit summer series.”
