Love Island All Stars 2026 is welcoming back the iconic Helena Ford into the villa despite only just leaving it in the summer of 2025.

After going on a very big journey last year, Helena became famous for her hideaway antics, her exhausting relationship with Harry Cooksley and her friendship with Megan Moore.

She was also the centre of fall outs with her fellow female contestants including Shakira Khan, Yasmine Pettet and Toni Laites. So what does All Stars look like for Helena?

She said: "I would like to say 'new year, new me' but hopefully you'll see me getting with an actual nice boy. But I know what I'm like and I get bored easily. If they're not being a menace, I'll start being a menace."

Helena is 29-years-old and ready to find her perfect partner. Heading into the villa a second time, she's admitted she had to take a break from dating after exciting the show.

She said: "[My dating life] got worse! When I first came out of the villa I was like, 'I need a break'. So I haven't really been speaking to anyone. I want to find a boyfriend this time!"

What is Love Island Helena's job?

Helena is cabin crew and has travelled to locations such as Dubai, Lake Como and Monaco. The TV star was actually scouted by Love Island producers whilst working on a flight!

However, since leaving the show, Helena has not returned to her job and has focused all of her energy on her influencing career.

What season of Love Island was Helena on?

She's not been out of the villa long but Helena was on 2025's season 12 of Love Island. During her time on the show, she was coupled up with Harry Cooksley, Harrison Solomon and Shea Mannings.

However, it was her connection with Harry that really caught her in the feels with him eventually choosing Shakira despite going exclusive with Helena.

Here's hoping it's second time lucky.
