It's not surprising that Love Island’s Harriett Blackmore is on All Stars 2025 because she really is an all star islander. The first time around, the fire cracker became a beloved contestant as she rode the rocky wave that was being attracted to Ronnie Vint, who had his eyes on other girls in the villa.
Once they were finally put in a couple, they were dumped due to a public vote, but just five months later the pair have found themselves in the Love Island villa again. And with Ronnie clearly smitten over the gorgeous Harriett arriving as a bombshell, they might just pick up where they left off.
The first time Harriett was on the show, fans were stunned by five-year-old footage that resurfaced showing an almost unrecognisable Harriett. But what did she look like before? Here is the footage that surfaced showing Harriett before her Love Island 2024 experience.
Before entering the villa, Harriett considered herself the “it girl of Brighton,” boasting connections to vlogger Saffron Barker who has over 2 million YouTube subscribers and British rapper Arrdee.
Harriett makes an appearance in an old vlog on Saffron’s YouTube channel, where the internet celebrity challenged herself to live in her car for 24 hours.
The video from 2019 has now racked up three million views on the platform. However, during filming, it didn’t take long for the vlogger to get bored and pull bestie Harriett in to get involved.
The girls film themselves ordering pizza to the car and hanging out but, if Saffron hadn’t named Harriett in the video, most fans would probably not have been able to recognise her.
Living in my car for 24 HOURS!!! 😱😭 *and this is what happened*
The video is from five years ago when Harriett would have been between 19-20 years old and whilst her unique tone of voice has remained the same, there are a far few changes to her looks.
A snippet of the video went viral on TikTok accumulating 1.2 million views and fans have expressed their shock in the comment section.
One wrote, “Nah that’s [actually] a different person.”
Another said there is “no way that’s the same girl,” and another speculated that Harriett had gotten some work done, writing, “Harriett definitely overdone the filler.”
What cosmetic procedures has Love Island's Harriet done?
Prior to entering the Love Island villa, Harriett has been tagged in a number of videos revealing the procedures she got done to feel confident heading on national TV.
One such clinic named Angela Aesthetics shared two videos on their socials, one showing Harriett getting a muscle toning procedure on her stomach, with the text, 'Get Love Island ready with Harriett Blackmore' and the caption that read, 'Getting bikini body ready, Our lovely client Harriett came in for muscle toning just before she jetted off to the Love Island villa!'
For her second Love Island stint, the same account shared another post of Harriett revealing that she has had lip filler, jaw filler and nose filler.
It appears that Harriett also invested a substantial amount of money into getting her teeth done, with a clinic called Dental Health Spa uploading a video that showed Harriett's reaction to her teeth.
The clinic used hashtags like teeth whitening, Invisalign, composite bonding and veneers, but it's unknown whether those are all things Harriett actually got done.
However, in the video, she seems pleased with the result and that's all that matters! We hope we get to see more of Harriett's lovely smile in the villa in the future.
