Kady McDermott shock return to Love Island after appearing on season 2

Love Island star Kady McDermott is deturning to the villa for a second chance at finding her soul mate.

The 27-year-old is one of the most iconic former islanders to set foot in the Mallorcan villa, having appeared in the second series of the hit ITV2 show, where she coupled up with Scott Thomas.

The couple got to the final and moved together to Manchester before splitting a year later in what ended up being a huge shock for fans of the show reports the Mirror.

Since her appearance on season two, Kady has had a string of relationships including with TOWIE star Myles Barnett as well as a brief romance with Matty Cash.

She was always known as a "pocket rocket" because of her feisty nature, and some of the most famous moments of the past ten series are down to her.

When asked why she had decided to return to the villa, the 27-year-old said: "I think I’m known from season 2 for being so chaotic. People always ask, ‘Do you have regrets?’ expecting me to say yes, but I was so true to myself and I was 100% authentic. I’ll still be like that now, but seven years on, I am more mature. I’m still the fiery pocket rocket but I know what I want and what I don’t want.

"Don’t get me wrong, I’m still going to be me and the fire I have is in my soul, I’ll never get rid of that and I love that about me, but I’m a lot more emotionally mature now, so I know how to navigate things better. I’ve grown up a lot.

"Last time I got with Scott straight away and I was so ‘tunnel vision’. It’ll be interesting to see what connections I’ll form this time."

She revealed she had her eye on Zach, saying: "Zach’s my number one, Tyrique on looks, but he might need his ego putting down a little bit. I also want to get to know Mitch.

"Age is a big thing for me, immaturity in a man for me, it’s just a complete no. I don’t like boys that are too cheeky, I just don’t trust them. Zach seems the most chilled and and is nice to look at."

Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX each weeknight at 9pm.
