Welsh Star Rejoins Popular ITV Show’s New Season
The upcoming season of the popular ITV spin-off, Love Island: All Stars, will feature a returning cast of former contestants, providing them with a chance to reconnect and explore new relationships. Among the returning islanders is Welsh contestant Ciaran Davies, a 23-year-old from Pencoed.
Ciaran Davies: A Return to Love Island
Ciaran Davies gained fame during Love Island Series 11 in 2024, where he finished as a runner-up alongside fellow Welsh contestant Nicole Samuel. However, the relationship ended amicably just four months after leaving the villa. The breakup was publicly announced in December 2024.
Looking for Love Again
Davies is eager to find love once more. He shared that he has been single for over a year and feels ready to settle down. “I’ve got unfinished business with the villa,” he stated, emphasizing his desire for meaningful connections.
Previously, Davies had a brief relationship with Emily Moran, a contestant from Love Island 2025, which ended in September. He discussed this breakup on the podcast Kiss and Tell, explaining that he made the decision to end things because he wasn’t ready for a serious commitment.
A Different Approach This Season
This time around, Davies plans to approach the show with an open mind. “I’ve always been honest,” he said, vowing to be his authentic self throughout the experience. He reflected on his past year, mentioning some dating attempts that didn’t pan out as hoped.
