Back in 2021 on season 7, Liberty Poole broke up with Jake following comments he made about her on the show.
It’s official – Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish will come face-to-face again on Love Island: All Stars years after their split when the show launches on Monday 15th January.
When the duo were last on the show, things ended badly as Liberty called time on their relationship. It came after a movie night clip showed Jake admitting to the boys that he didn’t want to “rip” Liberty’s clothes off.
While the duo won’t find out until Monday’s episode that they’re both part of the line-up, Jake has a strong feeling Liberty will be back.
“I know full well she’s in there. I’d put my house on it that she’s in there. I know for a fact she’s in there,” he told RadioTimes.com and other press.

Asked what he’d like to say to her and whether he’ll be apologising for his previous actions, Jake said: “There’s nothing for me to apologise for.
“I’ve done nothing wrong to her. ‘Sorry’ will not come out of my mouth. I just hope she’s done well and her family’s fine and her friends. That’s it. That’s all I ask.”
Jake is, however, hoping that viewers will see a different side to him on All Stars, adding: “Truthfully speaking what I want is… From last time, the public obviously saw me as a bit, not like a f** boy, but like someone who’s a cheeky chap, which I am, but I just think I want people to kind of see the other side of me, not like this Lovey Dovey Jake that I was before.
“I’m older now. I’m mature so I think it’s going to be a completely different kind of storyline for me.”
He continued: “I am this person that if all my eggs are in one basket I’ll give you all my attention. But I think last time, obviously, it was and then as the show went on, I think a lot of people got involved… and that’s what broke it down, I think.
“Now, I just want to show the public the actual real me – the fun, the bubbly, the cheeky chap, the one who wants to have fun. So, hopefully that gets shown. But it’s TV, so I don’t know what gets shown until I come out.”
