Grace Jackson’s Ex Reuben Reacts as She Re-Enters Love Island

STELLAR PROMOTION: We love a supportive king

Grace Jackson is back in the Love Island villa – and we’re entirely here for it.

The Love Island star, who only left the villa a mere five months ago, has returned to the show for its All Stars edition, and we’re hopeful she’ll bring some much needed drama.

Grace appeared on last summer’s series, and left the villa with Reuben Collins, who she continued to have a relationship with for a few months before eventually calling it a day.

Grace also dated Joey Essex for a period before the show but let’s not get into that.

Following Grace’s reappearance on the show, ex Reuben took it upon himself to react to her entrance – and honestly, what a king.

Commenting on the post announcing Grace’s return, he said: “Now that’s a bombshell!”

The support, the respect, the maturity. We truly do love to see it.

Grace and Reuben split not long after leaving the Love Island villa in 2024 due to conflicting work schedules.

A source at the time said: “Grace wishes Reuben all the best and vice versa. They will remain friends and have no bad feelings towards each other.

“They have both been very busy since leaving the villa and the long distance has been difficult for both of them.”

Before re-entering the All Stars villa, Grace was dating footballer Marcus Rashford. She reportedly split from him in December.

Grace said that she wanted to try Love Island again because now she’s looking to settle down.

“I think I would definitely be more open to not putting all my eggs into one basket because I did that on day one and it didn’t really work out for me!” she said.

“I definitely think I’ll give people that I may not initially be attracted to more time, because I think personality is a big thing.”
