Although Kady and Scott finished in third place, they split the following year.

According to this tabloid, Kady, 27, is set to make a shock return as a bombshell in the villa this week to shake things up.

An insider said: “Kady was a fantastic Islander in 2016. She made brilliant television and bosses are hoping she can recreate the same magic in the villa this summer.

“She's also still looking for love so for Kady the hope is that she can finally find the man of her dreams.

“Olivia and Alex and Nathan and Cara from her series are happy, in love, and even have families of their own. Kady, especially now she's older and wiser when it comes to dating, is longing for the same fairytale ending.”

Kady and Scott finished in third place behind runners-up Olivia and Alex Bowen, who are now married with a child, and winners Nathan Massey and Cara De La Hoyde, who are married with two children.

This isn’t the first time an old contestant has returned to the series as last year we saw Adam Collard return to the villa as a bombshell, where he enjoyed a brief romance with series 8 contestant Paige Thorne.

Meanwhile, former Love Island Australia star Jessie Wynter entered the Mallorca villa last year and found love with Will Young.

ITV are yet to confirm if Kady will enter as a bombshell this week.

Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
