Viewers of Love Island were left in shock after a teaser for Friday night's episode showed a bombshell entering the villa. But it was not just any old bombshell – it was Kady McDermott, who originally went on the show in series two. This shock revelation came moments after the Love Island girls were forced to make the decision whether to stick in their partnership or twist in the third recoupling of the series.
Kady finished third on the show during her season with now ex-boyfriend Scott Thomas and was known for being "chaotic". Now, the 27-year-old is back for a second chance at finding love in the Spanish sunshine, following in the footsteps of Adam Collard, but will she be successful? Speaking about joining the show again she said: "I’m still the fiery pocket rocket but I know what I want and what I don’t want." Only time will tell.
As the show ended and viewers saw that Kady was the latest bombshell to enter the villa Twitter was alight with comments from those in disbelief.

Another said: "THE RUMOURS ARE TRUE KADY IS BACK AND SHE IS LOOKING GOOD! #Loveisland #Talkswithash"
While a third penned: "can’t even slag love island this year hahahaha phenomenal bringing kady in #loveIsland"
Before this teaser occurred the Islanders experienced a series of ups and downs, taking viewers on a rollercoaster of emotions. Molly Marsh and Zachariah Noble went on their first date while Medhi Edno, who is coupled up with Whitney Adebayo, began exploring his options with unlucky-in-love Leah Taylor although it wasn't quite reciprocated. And the group played a game of Never Have I Ever, which caused slight tension between Zachariah and two girls, Jess Harding and Ella Thomas, after he admitted to cheating in a past relationship.
Jess said to him after his admission: "“Once a cheat always a cheat Zachariah. A leopard doesn’t change its spots Zachariah".
The episode ended on a mostly happy note for those inside the villa as, with even numbers of boys and girls recoupling with each other, it meant no-one was sent packing.
As is usually the case when bombshells enter the newest Islanders, Mal Nicol and Montel McKenzie, were the first to choose.
