Megan Barton-Hanson fans convinced she's set to make Love Island return after cryptic post

Megan Barton-Hanson’s fans are convinced she’s dropped a huge hint she’s returning to the Love Island villa.

The 29-year-old was a bombshell in the 2018 series, and after posting a video of herself strutting through a pretty – what seems to be Mediterranean – street in a lime green bikini, her 2 million followers think she’s on her way back to the Mallorca villa.

Megan captioned the video: “It’s officially summer [sunshine emoji] Link in Bio for exclusive content [winking emoji].”

Of course, there is every chance that the video is just an advert for her very successful OnlyFans channel.

Last year it was revealed that she had become a millionaire from her $24.99 subscription, which gives fans access to exclusive content including 'uncensored' photos and nudes.

But some of her followers think there is more to the vid than just a drive for new subscribers – including previous Love Island stars.

Adam Collard, who was on the same series as Megan but returned to the Villa last year, commented: "Thought this was a love island walk in."

Michael Boateng, who appeared on series 6, made a similar comment, writing: "Oooo child for a second I thought you were walking back into the villa."

One comment calling for her to return to the show read: "They should have sent you back into the villa!! Total bombshell".

"If you scream at itv maybe they will listen but can you handle another season with the Meg?," another suggested as a third said: "My vote is Megan back to the island!"

And Megan Barton-Hanson's representative revealed she's open to a return to the show as they told the Mirror: "It’s a show she loves and is single at the moment so I’m sure she would consider it, but at the moment there are no plans to enter the villa."

In March, Meg slammed the new generation of contestants for being "boring" and more concerned about brand deals than making good TV – or hooking up.

She told The Sun, "I did watch Love Island this year but everyone is being too safe. They want to sit on the fence and not offend anyone or steal anyone’s boyfriend.

"I think that because people like Molly-Mae have gone on to make billions of pounds, people are being too sensible because they want to be liked.

"Back in the day people would be themselves and be a bit ruthless."

She admitted admitted having sex on the show with both Eyal Booker and ex-boyfriend Wes Nelson.

And the star – who later came out as bisexual – joked she would have coupled up with Irish beauty Maura Higgins if she’d had the chance.

There’s every chance that Megan could make another appearance on the show as bosses look to its roster of existing stars to spice things up.

This week Kady McDermott, 27, made an explosive return the show seven years after her first appearance – and a spicy twist from producers saw Kady steal Zachariah Noble which resulted in Molly Marsh being dumped from the Island.
