As the Love Island All Stars final brought drama to the final episode with all of the couples hoping for the crown, it was Gabby and Casey that stole the show.
But it wasn't without a packed season of drama, including the reunion of exes Harriett Blackmore and Ronnie Vint who sensationally rekindled their romance while in the villa for the second time round.
The pair left season 11 as a couple, but split up a few months later. When Ronnie first entered the All Star's villa, he found himself in a love triangle with fellow cast members Kaz Crossley and Elma Pazar.
While the messy situation saw Ronnie kiss both girls in the one night, Ronnie was left gobsmacked when ex-girlfriend Harriett entered as a bombshell. In an exclusive chat on the Daily Mirror's Bombshell Briefing podcast, former Love Island star, and close pal of Ronnie's Ciaran Davies revealed the reason Ronnie changed while in the villa.
Ciaran made it to the season 11 final, coupled up with Nicole Samuel, and while his relationship with Ciaran didn't last, his bromance with Ronnie definitely did. Speaking fondly of his pal, Ciaran said Ronnie will always be a "rascal" but he changed his ways when he set his eyes on Harriett once again and fixed up his act.
The Welsh star gushed: "Ronnie will always be Ronnie, but I liked seeing a more vulnerable side to him. On my series, he looked like the jokes person and the rascal. He looked like turbo, but this year as soon as Harriett came in, you could see something flipping him straight away on camera."
As soon as Harriett entered, viewers and the stars in the villa knew Ronnie's head was about to turn, including Ciaran who joked: "I just knew, I knew and thought, 'Oh he's in trouble," and added: "I had a feeling he was going to back to Harriett and I am so happy for him. As long as he's happy I'm happy."
Ciaran said Ronnie and Harriett were the "exact same" as they were when they were in the villa the first time around, and said Harriett was still as "straight talking" than ever, but the pair were dumped from the villa the day before the final, leaving them coming in sixth place.
