Chris Harrison goes back to television with his wife, Lauren Zimaby his side after his departure The Bachelor in 2021.

“Incredibly excited to announce that @laurenzima and I are coming to you with the next chapter in our television careers,” said Harrison, 52, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday March 6 next a video of Dr. Phil McGraw welcome him and Zima, 36, to his new network, Merit Street Media.

Harrison, who married Zima in November 2023, continued: “We have joined @meritstreetmedia, a new television network launched by the one and only @drphil.”

The longtime TV presenter said there are “many reasons” their new venture is the “perfect match”, adding: “I can’t wait to see you all again very soon.”

Zima teased her husband about their new partnership, writing in the comments section, “What is more binding… getting married or hosting a show together? I love you and I’m so proud of you.”

Harrison will make his TV comeback by co-hosting a morning show with Zima for McGraw’s network, launching on Tuesday, April 2. The series will be filmed in Dallas, Texas, at the Merit Street Media studios.

Harrison, who lives in Texas with his wife, will also host and create a new dating show for the network as part of a larger deal. In addition, Harrison will appear on McGraw’s Dr. Phil Primetime series.

“There are dating elements to it, but this is so different and so new,” McGraw said Entertainment tonight of the dating series on Wednesday. “It flips the script in a way that I think people will be hooked on within a week. It’s unbelievable.”

Harrison explained that after working on ABC’s The Bachelor, The bachelorette And Bachelor in paradiseFor 20 years, another relationship show was a no-brainer.

“People have come to know and love me as a host for two decades The Bachelor, so yeah, we’re going to make a reality dating show,” he told the outlet. “For years I’ve said, ‘This is the most dramatic show ever.’ We want to make a show that makes these words ring true, so this dating show will be the most dramatic yet – you can be sure.

Harrison’s return to television comes three years after he made headlines for defending season 25 Bachelor education winner Rachel Kirkconnell after her racially insensitive past actions resurfaced.

Soon after, Harrison proposed to the former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay in February 2021 to “have a little mercy, a little understanding, a little compassion” for Kirkconnell, he was replaced as host for season 17 of The bachelorette.

While Harrison apologized for his comments, ABC cut ties with the host completely in June 2021. “Chris Harrison is stepping aside as host of The Bachelor franchise,” the network said. We weekly in a statement at the time. “We are grateful for his many contributions over the past twenty years and wish him all the best on his new journey.”

Harrison confirmed his departure via Instagram, writing: “I have had a truly incredible run as host of The Bachelor franchise and now I’m excited to start a new chapter. I am so grateful to Bachelor Nation for all the memories we made together.

One year ago, NFL executives emerged from the scouting combine thinking the Chicago Bears were open to trading the first pick in the draft. They were right. This year, sentiment from NFL front offices holds that the Bears will use the top pick, acquired from the Carolina Panthers one year ago next week, on USC quarterback Caleb Williams.

Checking in with decision-makers this time of year provides a snapshot of their expectations coming out of the combine. What they think might happen in early March evolves as the draft nears, partly because coaches become more involved in the process. But I find value in taking a snapshot to establish a baseline.

I’ve put together a rough top 10 based on conversations with six executives during and after the combine. Clear themes emerged for quarterbacks, offensive linemen and receivers, with some intrigue surrounding a QB prospect whom teams haven’t assessed as fully.

Last year, execs correctly projected seven of the top 10 players selected. Bijan Robinson, Jalen Carter and Darnell Wright were the three players landing in the actual top 10 without appearing in the March 2023 projection.

Execs narrowly missed on offensive lineman Peter Skoronski (Tennessee picked him 11th). They missed on cornerback Christian Gonzalez, who went 17th to New England. And they whiffed on quarterback Will Levis, who was not selected until the 33rd slot — a reminder that when QBs fall, they can plummet, because only a subset of teams will consider one early in a given year.

This year, the general theme was for quarterbacks to go first, then offensive linemen, then wide receivers, with some overlap between those two final positions. Only a couple of defensive players made the projected top 10.

We are not projecting potential trades below because there are too many possibilities. Finding logical homes for the highest-ranked players based on the order as it stands today captures the general feel at the moment.

Four players appeared in the top 10 on all six ballots: Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Drake Maye and Joe Alt.

Five players appeared on five of six ballots: Dallas Turner, Marvin Harrison Jr., Rome Odunze, Olu Fashanu and Malik Nabers.

JC Latham appeared on four ballots. Jared Verse appeared on three. Brock Bowers appeared on two. Chop Robinson and Byron Murphy II each appeared on one.

The top 10 picks below have been formed from a consensus of the six ballots. Nabers and Latham were not selected in the top 10 because there was no consensus on where either would land, but they would be part of any consensus top 10 overall.

Most also thought J.J. McCarthy would be selected among the top 10, probably to a team that traded up, such as the Denver Broncos. But none of the six execs penciled him in for one of the teams already picking in the top 10, at least not yet.

1. Chicago Bears: Caleb Williams, QB, USC

Vote distribution: Williams 6

All six execs had the Bears selecting Williams and trading incumbent starter Justin Fields. All endorsed Chicago heading down this path.

“I would be evaluating the other quarterbacks like crazy right now and saying, ‘What if I moved down to two or three and got a historic return?’” one of the execs said. “Would I still be getting a franchise quarterback?”

The strongest concern voiced regarding Williams was his tendency to hold onto the ball longer than is ideal for a timing-based offense. In a worst-case scenario, that could lead to more third-and-long situations, robbing an offense of consistency. But the feeling among execs was that Chicago should not hesitate in making Williams the first selection.

2. Washington Commanders: Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU

Vote distribution: Daniels 5, Maye 1

Five of six execs had Daniels heading to Washington in this slot. One of the five initially had Maye, then changed to Daniels a few days later.

“I think people struggle with Maye’s mechanics,” this exec said.

The one holdout for Maye in this slot said he heard Commanders general manager Adam Peters was “really into” Maye. The fit could be appealing. Maye and incumbent Commanders starter Sam Howell were teammates at North Carolina. Howell could open the 2024 season as the starter if the Commanders wanted to give Maye time to assimilate.

Another exec left open the possibility that Michigan’s McCarthy could compete with Daniels and Maye for this slot.

“If he throws well,” this exec said of McCarthy, “he is competing for the No. 2 spot. I don’t see him overtaking them, though.”

The Athletic’s Randy Mueller predicted months ago that McCarthy could rise into the top five as teams and specifically coaches learned more about him, before it was known whether McCarthy would enter the draft. Mueller, a three-time GM and one-time NFL Executive of the Year, also thinks analysts are overrating Maye based on prototypical size, and that some teams will not have Maye rated as highly.

“I think that whole quarterback thing between McCarthy and Maye is yet to play out,” a former GM said. “The other two I think are more set.”

For now, all six execs projected Maye being selected second or third.

“Could you say McCarthy could go in the top five? Yes,” the former GM said, “because everybody had him on the back burner this fall. And then Michigan was not centered around the quarterback like Oregon or Washington was, so he was not going to put up monster numbers. But then when you start looking at the talent and the makeup, he looks pretty good to people.”

Vote distribution: Maye 5, Daniels 1

Every exec had the Patriots selecting a quarterback in the first round. Maye was the choice more by default than because anyone thought New England was particularly high on him.

“I think they would probably rather have Jayden Daniels, but I’ll put Maye in there,” one exec said.

One GM whose team already has a franchise quarterback thought McCarthy would be “a huge reach” in this spot, but he conceded New England could make a bold selection with Eliot Wolf running the draft room.

“I think they go quarterback,” this GM said. “Do they take a shot at J.J.? Eliot won’t be afraid to if he believes in the player. Just look at what his dad has done.”

Ron Wolf famously acquired Brett Favre from the Atlanta Falcons three decades ago.

“Ron Wolf’s son is going to go for the biggest, fastest, most talented athlete in most cases,” a different exec said.

Vote distribution: Joe Alt 2, Dallas Turner 2, Marvin Harrison Jr. 2

There was zero consensus on Arizona in this slot. I gave Turner to the Cardinals because their defense badly needs reinforcements.

“Turner is squarely in the top 10 now,” one exec said, citing the Alabama product’s 4.46 in the 40-yard dash.

We could have sent Harrison or Alt to the Cardinals just the same.

“I think they have to go pass rush if they stay there,” one of the execs said. “It could be Dallas Turner. Verse might be a safer pick. I would think they will be looking to move down. There is enough rush, even a Chop Robinson, to get him lower. Seven (Titans) and six (Giants) could trade up for a tackle.”

Trading down from this spot makes perfect sense, perhaps regardless of how the top three picks play out.

“I would expect them to trade the pick,” one of the execs said. “Look at how they moved back last year, and then the fact that this is going to be an attractive spot because it allows someone to come up from a distance to get the player they want.”

This exec was picturing one of the quarterback-needy teams vaulting into this spot for McCarthy or Maye. The Cardinals have already committed to Kyler Murray as their quarterback. Moving back to, say, the 12th slot in a trade with Denver could still deliver the eighth-best non-quarterback in the draft for a team already set at the position.

“That is a perfect distance maybe for Arizona to go back, load up on picks, including a first next year, and there are still players there that are going to have equal opportunity to have a significant impact,” the exec said. “They could get the No. 1 corner, the No. 2 edge guy, still a good tackle, still a good receiver.”

Arizona has been a popular destination for Harrison in mock drafts. While four of the six execs projected Harrison to be the first receiver selected, Nabers and Odunze also got votes, and Harrison wasn’t necessarily seen as the best by a wide margin.

“I think they’ll take Marvin Harrison because I think he is the most talented, solid, all-the-way-around guy,” another exec said. “Let me put it to you this way: I see him being the best available player at that time. If you don’t look at him as better than Odunze or Nabers, then yeah, maybe you go with Alt or Dallas Turner. But they gotta keep giving their quarterback some players, too, and I think Marvin Harrison is going to check every box, and is more talented.”

Vote distribution: Alt 2, Fashanu 2, Turner 1, Nabers 1

The first four execs polled sent an offensive lineman to the Chargers, figuring the pick would make sense symbolically for the team’s old-school coach, Jim Harbaugh. But there was some strong pushback against this idea as well, which we’ll get to in a moment.

“Joe Alt might be the safest and most complete of the tackles,” one exec said. “They have a left tackle. They could play him at right tackle. You are going to want to give the quarterback a run game, and then you are going to want to protect him for the first time in his career.”

Solid thinking, but is it solid value?

“That is one thing I just don’t get,” another exec said. “Taking a guy to play right tackle, I just don’t understand that. Alt is clean, and I love Alt, but with pass rushers, there is a big difference in the value of the position to me. We can find a right tackle.”

This exec penciled in Turner for the Chargers. Another leaned toward the offensive line initially but thought Nabers would make the greater impact.

“To get Herbert a guy like Nabers would give them some L.A. fireworks,” he said.

6. New York Giants: Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State

Vote distribution: Harrison 2, Nabers 1, Odunze 1, Latham 1, Alt 1

Four of the six execs had the Giants selecting a receiver, but there wasn’t strong conviction regarding which receiver would be the choice, partly because the top three wideouts could go in just about any order.

An exec who sent Harrison to the Cardinals at No. 4 settled on Odunze for the Giants.

“Nabers is more speed, while Odunze is more possession, big, strong, physical,” this exec said. “They might go with Odunze just because they took the speed guy out of Tennessee (Jalin Hyatt) last year, and this would be a good complement.”

The Giants need help on their offensive line, but they’ve invested recent high draft choices in the position. The exec sending Latham to the Giants noted that the team seems to like SEC players. What about a quarterback?

“If you are the Giants and J.J. McCarthy is there, I think you have to take him,” one exec said. “That doesn’t mean they will do it. They desperately need offensive line. Let’s just give them Alt. I could see them saying, ‘If Jones doesn’t work this year, we will have another top 10 pick next year and worry about it then.’”

Vote distribution: Fashanu 2, Latham 1, Alt 1, Nabers 1, Verse 1

Four of the six execs sent an offensive lineman to the Titans.

“They have not replaced Taylor Lewan, and they need to do that,” one of the execs said. “The guy they took last year (Skoronski) was really a guard. They need a left tackle.”

The lone exec sending a defensive player to the Titans did so based on what he knows about Tennessee’s GM, Ran Carthon.

“I think they go with the best pass rusher,” this exec said. “Ran would probably rely on his 49er days, probably take Verse. I have not personally studied Verse and Turner enough to have a strong opinion, but that is my gut based on what I have seen.”

8. Atlanta Falcons: Jared Verse, Edge, Florida State

Vote distribution: Verse 2, Turner 2, Robinson 1, Latham 1

The execs generally thought the Falcons would address their quarterback situation in free agency or by trade, although one GM offered up another possibility.

“They are the most likely to trade to 1 and get Caleb Williams, or trade for Fields,” this GM said.

Adding young pass rush help for a veteran defense wouldn’t be as exciting. It could be the best option.

“You can’t take another offensive skill player, can you?” one of the execs said. “I don’t see a quarterback necessarily because I think they are going to sign Russell Wilson. They could go corner, too, but I’ll give them a pass rusher.”

Another exec cautioned against ruling out a receiver, noting that the Falcons could still use help at the position. But he thought defense was more likely.

9. Chicago Bears: Rome Odunze, WR, Washington

Vote distribution: Odunze 3, Nabers 1, Harrison 1, Byron Murphy II 1

Odunze was the highest-rated receiver available in this scenario and a straightforward pick for a team that targeted its franchise quarterback at the top of the draft. The Bears also could find a defensive player for their defensive-minded coach, Matt Eberflus, under the thinking that Williams would unlock more from their receivers, led by DJ Moore.

“To pair Caleb with a top-tier receiver, both of them young, both with a lot of time, yeah, it would be really hard not to do that,” one exec said.

10. New York Jets: Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia

Vote distribution: Bowers 2, Nabers 1, Odunze 1, Fashanu 1, Latham 1

None of the execs thought selecting a tight end in this slot would be a sound move.

“When you are picking in the top 10 and you need offensive line help and you take a tight end, that is malpractice,” the exec sending Fashanu to the Jets said. “You can’t do that. That is just ridiculous.”

Another exec said the Jets needed to select a tackle in this slot, or trade back and select one. But he didn’t necessarily think the Jets would do that.

“It is hard in the top 10 to not take a building-block position, but the Jets are in a unique spot because they have to win this year or they don’t have jobs,” this exec said. “You are getting weapons for Aaron Rodgers and he is going to scheme it for you. They have swung and missed on so many offensive linemen. I would think they go offensive line in free agency.”

Despite what Harrison Ford said, woman Calista Flockhart thinks he's a pretty good dad, after decades of experience.

“I think he was a very good father in many ways,” Flockhart, 59, said. The New York Times in a profile published on Friday, January 26, while talking about their son Liam, now 23. “Maybe because he was in round 2 or round 3, so he had matured and, I think, evolved into a good father. He is such a good father to his children now. I love his children, my stepchildren.”

When Ford, 81, and Flockhart first met at the 2002 Golden Globes, he was still in the middle of a divorce and the Ally McBeal alum had just adopted Liam.

“It didn't deter me,” Ford told the newspaper NYT of meeting Flockhart when she was a new mother. 'When I met Liam he was just starting to walk and I didn't care. I already had four children and I can't count very well, so it didn't make that much difference.”

The Star Wars actor shares sons Ben, 56, and William, 54, with ex-wife Maria Marquardtto whom he was married from 1964 to 1979. Ford and the late Melissa Mathisonwhom he was married to from 1983 to 2004, welcomed daughter Georgia, 33, and son Malcolm, 36. (Mathison, a screenwriter, died of neuroendocrine cancer in 2015. She was 65.) He officially adopted Liam in 2010 after he and Flockhart tied the knot.

Though he likes to joke, in a rare moment of vulnerability, Ford admitted last year that he didn't think he was the best dad in the world. “I can tell you this: If I had been less successful, I would probably be a better parent,” he said Esquire in a May 2023 profile. He further noted that “the more consistent gardener is the better parent,” as he's been “out of town, up my own ass, most of my life.”

However, Flockhart thinks he is a good father and a great partner. “We had to work,” she told the newspaper Time of their almost 14-year marriage. “We've had our ups, we've had downs like everyone else – mostly ups, which is good – and we just stick together. He's the person I want to call if something happens. That knee-jerk thing where I have to call Harrison.

While Ford continued to star in films throughout their 22-year romance, Flockhart chose to focus on motherhood. Since Brothers Sisters came to an end in 2011 after five seasons, the actress has largely stuck to supporting roles on shows like Web therapy And Great girl. She said she was “very content being at home” as a full-time mother and that staying home likely helped her marriage to Ford.

“I didn't have the same dreams at the time, so we weren't competing with each other,” she explained. “We're very independent of each other in some ways and probably incredibly dependent on each other in other ways.”

But now that her son is grown (he graduated from Amherst College last year), she's ready for her comeback. Flockhart shines as Lee Radziwill at showrunner Ryan Murphy's highly anticipated FX mini-series, Feud: Capote vs. the Swans. The eight-episode drama premieres on FX Wednesday, January 31 at 10pm ET.

How did the Barbie movie come about? I was invited to an after-party by Margot Robbie and then ended up at an after-party with her. I started to panic and started a conversation with her, having very stupid conversations. I can only assume my crazy talk impressed Margot Robbie.

Georgia Harrison’s ex Joshua Ritchie was announced as Love Island All Stars’ latest bombshell during Wednesday’s episode.

Joshua, 29, was one of the original Islanders in 2015 and has since made a name for himself on reality TV shows including Ex on the Beach and Celebs Go Dating – and because of his highly publicised romances.

He dated fellow All Stars contestant Georgia Harrison, 29, who admitted she would be keen to couple up with him if he made an appearance, and Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby, 33, for two years between 2017 and 2019.

Producers are hoping that Georgia will hit it off with Joshua after Chris Taylor, who she fancies, continues to pursue new arrival Molly Smith.

But many fans were left baffled at the end of Wednesday’s episode as they did not know who Joshua was.

One person asked on Twitter: ‘I didn’t watch season 1. How’s Josh like?’

While someone else posted: ‘Who TF is Josh.’

Another person wrote: ‘HOW do some of you not know who Josh is. Even from ex on the beach???’

And another person remarked: ‘Ya’ll fake stans asking WHO IS JOSH. GET OUT.’

Someone else shared: ‘Who’s Josh? I didn’t watch the first season.’

One other person posted: ‘People saying “who is Josh” are showing their age. Or am I showing mine.’

While someone else wrote: ‘ME NOT EVEN REMEMBERING JOSH.’

‘When you have to Google Josh and Luis from Season 1 because they both have changed so much,’ admitted another viewer.

Georgia was forced to deny speculation she was expecting her first baby with Joshua in 2022 after she was photographed at an event holding her stomach and joked on social media about becoming a mum.

A TV source told MailOnline: ‘Joshua is the latest bombshell signing.

‘He has come on board very much at the last minute, which is exactly how the show works, the producers are constantly reacting to what’s happening in the villa.

‘It’s clear from their past that Georgia and Joshua have a spark… the hope is now they’re able to explore their feelings for each other on the show.’

Speaking ahead of the All Stars series, Georgia called Joshua ‘good looking’ and admitted that he would pique her interest.

She said: ‘Joshua Ritchie… I’ve dated before, he’s good looking and my usual type.’

Joshua starred on the very first season of Love Island alongside All Star contestants Hannah Elizabeth and Luis Morrison-Derbyshire.

He came third on the series with Lauren Richardson, who was the ex-fling of One Direction star Zayn Malik.

Jessica Hayes and Max Morley were the first ever winners, but they didn’t stay in a relationship.

The All Stars series has already given fans the drama they have craved since the summer.

Viewers were shocked to discover that Jake Cornish had quit the show after just 72 hours.

MailOnline revealed that he would still earn £2,000 for his TV appearance after Islanders were promised the amount each week they remain in the villa.

He was left in an awkward position after the public decided to pair him with ex-girlfriend Liberty Poole, who he dated on the show in 2021.

Jake was met by criticism from the public for the way he treated Liberty throughout their romance but the exes made amends and agreed to put the past behind them.

Liberty even broke down in tears when Jake announced to the cast that he was leaving, and the pair parted ways with a huge hug.

Love Island All Stars continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX on Thursday 18 January. 

A legend in film and television! Best known for his roles in Star Wars And Indiana Jones, by Harrison Ford career spans more than six decades and he has become an icon in the film industry.

The Witness actor was born in July 1942 in Chicago, Illinois. After graduating from Maine East High School in 1960, Ford attended Ripon College in Wisconsin, where he fell in love with acting during his senior year.

“I made a few plays and people cheered me on,” says the Mosquito coast star recalled in a March 2000 interview with Bangor daily news. “It was the only thing I found in college where I felt a sense of community and purpose.”

After college, Ford went to Hollywood, where he worked for Columbia Pictures and as a carpenter, appearing in many small television roles while balancing the jobs. The Illinois native then landed his breakout role George Lucas' Video from 1973 American graffitiwhich led him to his starring role as Han Solo in 1977 Star Wars.

After the success of Star WarsFord landed the lead role of Indiana Jones Steven Spielberg Raiders of the Lost Ark in 1981, which led to many successful spin-offs. Almost four years later, Ford appeared in 1985 Witnesswhich earned him his first Academy Award nomination.

The certified pilot – who spends much of his time flying on his 800-acre ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyoming – has completed several groundbreaking projects over the years and plans to continue acting for a long time to come.

“I think this is the place where I feel most useful. It's what I know the most about. I lost my carpentry skills,” he told the newspaper Hollywood reporter in 2023. “But I'm comfortable wrestling with how to extract behavior from words on a page and tell a story, and I'm still excited about the prospect of telling a story. I think this is a service activity: storytelling. We need it. Whether it's about caves or religious principles, we like to tell stories.”

Ford has won numerous awards throughout his long career, including the AFI Life Achievement Award in 2000, the Cecil B. DeMille Award in 2002 and receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2003.

As for his romantic life, the Shrink Star was married to Mary Marquardt from 1964 to 1979 and welcomed sons Benjamin and Willard in 1966 and 1969, respectively. After their divorce, he was married to Melissa Mathison from 1983 to 2000. The couple welcomed son Malcolm in 1987 and daughter Georgia in 1990. After their respective splits, Ford married Calista Flockhart in June 2010 and the couple are parents to Liam, the son she adopted before meeting the actor.

Keep scrolling for a look back at Ford's life and career over the years:

Love Island All Stars contestant Georgia Harrison has revealed the one deal-breaker she has when it comes to finding romance with a man.

The reality star, 29, originally took part in series three of Love Island in 2017 but is looking for love once again in the All Stars version of the show.

In Monday’s launch episode of the programme, she will be seen having a flirty chat with Chris Taylor, 33, and revealing the one important thing she looks for in a man – fame.

While Georgia insists she does not need a partner who is well known, she admits she wants someone who will be comfortable attending glitzy events with her such as star-studded premieres.

And, with Chris having already appeared on Love Island series five in 2019 and popping up in last year’s hit Barbie movie, he certainly has Georgia’s required credentials with his experience in the spotlight. 

According to The Sun, Georgia tells Chris: ‘I don’t need to be with someone who is necessarily famous but they have to be willing to be connected to me because I’d love to have someone I can go on the red carpets with.’

He replies: ‘Would you not prefer to have a boyfriend who is not in that at all?’

Georgia continues: ‘Well, no because I’ve done that and it wasn’t good.’

Chris adds: ‘They terrify me (red carpets). I get weird.’

Georgia jokingly claps back: ‘Oh, shut up. You love it. We saw you at the Barbie premiere.’

On Monday, for the first time singletons from previous seasons will return to the villa as they continue their quest to find their dream partner. 

Host Maya Jama is returning to present the show in South Africa, while the social media ban is also being lifted.

Last year, ITV bosses banned the stars’ loved ones from handling their accounts to ‘to shield them from the adverse effects of social media’.

However, Maya revealed on This Morning earlier this month, that the rule has been changed this season, meaning the contestants’ friends and families can post on their behalf. 

Another change coming this winter is that there will be no Aftersun spin-off show, with a new interview segment instead.

Maya will now speak to the contestants immediately after they are dumped in a brand new set next to the villa, in order to capture their ‘raw emotion’ in the moment. 

Speaking about the change, Maya said: ‘With this new exit interview format, I feel like you’ll get the raw emotion. I’m really excited about that actually.

‘I’ll be there as soon as they get out there will be no time for them to think about it we just go straight into the questions. I’m not a tough presenter. But I’ll ask the questions that people want to know.’

In a bid to make the show even more exciting and unique, producers have teased even more twists and shock moments. 

The biggest surprise shake-up is that Casa Amor has been axed for the first time in seven years.

The second villa has been a highlight of the recent series of the show, seeing the boys and girls separated into two villas with a new group of bombshells to tempt them away from each other.

The All Stars series has been reduced to five weeks long, instead of the usual eight, meaning the Casa Amor twist has been dropped as there’s not enough time.

Executive producer Mike Spencer told The Mirror: ‘Casa Amor, as we know and love it, doesn’t really work for a five week run because you need time to bed in, get to know each other, see if they are for you and if you want to switch it up.

‘I think you don’t need the element of bringing a massive influx of new islanders in. That is good for an eight week run but you don’t need it for this. This is going to be more intense and people will fall for each other quicker.’

He also revealed that this series will have lots of other twists instead, to ensure the Love Island veterans don’t know what’s coming.

He said: ‘We have got to be reactive. These islanders have done it all before so we have to be one step ahead of them. This give us the chance to shake it up and bring new islanders into the mix in new ways.’

Mike then teased: ‘We have four hidden single beds in the lounge, so make of that what you will.’

There will also be changes made to the biggest episodes – the launch night and the grand final – with no reunion show either.

Mike said: ‘It’s fair to say episode one has some really fresh format. It’s different. We know the background of what each person has been going in since their series so we thought about that when we were putting this together. 

‘We’re not going to do the challenge stage either that will be rested this season – but the ‘in villa’ tasks will continue.

‘This is a great time to test things and test the format. The show has been on for ten series we’ve tried to evolve it, especially the last couple of series. 

‘Shock twists worked for the audience last series and we’re looking what else we can do. The final we are also going to tweak. We won’t have a reunion show. So the final will answer the questions from fans and retell the stories of the series.’

The show legends returning this year so far are confirmed to be Liberty Poole, Georgia Harrison, Chris Taylor, Hannah Elizabeth, Kaz Kamwi, Georgia Steel, Anton Danyluk, Demi Jones, Luis Morrison, Toby Aromolaran, Mitchel Taylor and Jake Cornish.

The first series of Love Island All Stars kicks off on Monday evening at 9pm on ITV1, ITV2 and ITVX. 

De line-up voor Love Island All Stars werd maandag bevestigd, met twaalf voormalige deelnemers die de villa betraden voor een tweede kans op liefde.

Georgia Harrison, 29, keert zeven jaar na haar aankomst als een bom in seizoen drie terug en hoopt een succesvollere tijd te hebben dan haar vorige twaalfdaagse periode.

Voorafgaand aan de lancering van de show op maandag 15 januari onthulde Georgia haar motivatie om in de show te verschijnen en bekende dat ze al een ander castlid op het oog had.

Ze legde uit: ‘De laatste keer ging ik als een bom en ik vroeg me altijd af of ik de liefde zou hebben gevonden als ik er wat eerder was geweest. Toen ik over Love Island: All Stars hoorde, dacht ik dat het zo moest zijn.

‘Hoe geweldig dit jaar ook was, het was soms zwaar en behoorlijk serieus met al mijn campagnewerk.’

De realityster was een belangrijke campagnevoerder om de wet op wraakporno te veranderen nadat haar ex Stephen Bear werd veroordeeld voor het in het geheim filmen en vrijgeven van een sekstape van het paar.

Hij werd veroordeeld tot 21 maanden gevangenisstraf en zal de komende dagen worden vrijgelaten.

Georgia vervolgde: ‘Dit is het laatste jaar van mijn twintiger jaren, dus ik wil naar de Villa gaan en wat plezier hebben en hopelijk iemand ontmoeten op wie ik verliefd kan worden.

‘Ik heb geluk in de zin dat ik alles in mijn leven heb wat ik me maar kan wensen, afgezien van de liefde.’

Haar geluk in de romantiek zou echter wel eens kunnen veranderen als een van haar droommannen op het punt staat de villa binnen te gaan.

Op de vraag met wie ze zou samenwerken, gegeven de keuze van een vroegere Islander, antwoordde ze: ‘Chris Taylor, hij is hilarisch en het belangrijkste waar ik me toe aangetrokken voel is een man die me aan het lachen kan maken.

‘Wat een leuke kerel en zoals ik al zei, ik ben op zoek naar iemand om mee te TikTok, dus ik denk dat hij wel geschikt is voor dat soort dingen!’

Naast dat ze haar droomman in de villa heeft, onthulde Georgia dat ze zich beter voorbereid voelt op de ervaring, door uit te leggen: ‘Deze keer zal ik meer zelfvertrouwen hebben, ik was de eerste keer 21, ik ben nu 29 en Ik heb het gevoel dat ik mezelf op deze leeftijd volledig ken.

‘Ik heb ook nieuwe borsten, wat geweldig is als je in bikini zit, zodat ze klaar zijn om te rocken’n’roll! Ik denk dat ik vooral zoveel mogelijk plezier ga hebben.’

Georgia’s Love Island-periode valt samen met de vrijlating van haar ex uit de gevangenis.

De realityster deelde een reflecterende post voorafgaand aan zijn vrijlating en zei: ‘Beste universum… bedankt voor alles.

‘Bedankt voor de zegeningen, bedankt voor de lessen, bedankt voor de fouten die niet echt fouten waren.

‘Bedankt voor de vrienden die engelen zijn geworden, bedankt voor de tranen die de zaden van een nieuw begin water geven en bedankt voor de wet van aantrekking…’

Bear, 33, wordt na elf maanden vrijgelaten en heeft beloofd weg te blijven van sociale media en zijn eerdere wilde capriolen als hij vrijkomt.

Een bron vertelde aan The Sun: ‘Stephen heeft zijn straf uitgezeten – en hij moet de komende weken de gevangenis verlaten.

‘Hij heeft zijn vrienden echter verteld dat hij niet dezelfde man is die de gevangenis in is gegaan.

‘Hij hoeft niet meer terug te springen naar de sociale media of direct terug te rollen naar de dichtstbijzijnde nachtclub als hij uitstapt. Hij zegt dat hij gewoon terug wil naar Oost-Londen en zijn familie.’

Vorig jaar onderging Georgia een gruwelijke rechtszaak nadat ze slachtoffer werd van wraakporno.

Op 2 augustus 2020 hadden de realityster en haar ex-vriend Bear seks in zijn tuin, die Bear, 33, in het geheim filmde op de camerabeelden van zijn huis.

Vervolgens lekte hij de beelden online en verdiende hij £ 2.000 met de verkoop van de clip.

Love Island All Stars wordt maandag 15 januari om 21.00 uur gelanceerd op ITV1, ITV2, ITVX en STV.
