Ciaran Davies is back and ready to find ‘the one’ in sunny South Africa for Love Island All Stars 2026.

The Welsh lad first hit our TV screens in 2024 when he appeared on Love Island series 11. The OG islander had a near-perfect villa experience, remaining loyal to Nicole Samuel throughout the show. However, they only lasted a few months on the outside world before they were plagued by the 'Love Island curse' and broke up.

Before attempting to find love for a second time, Ciaran has said he plans to be "more open-minded" and just enjoy the experience for "what it is".

As we watch Ciaran tackle his 'unfinished business' in the villa, here's everything you need to know about the islander.

What happened between Ciaran Davies and Nicole Samuel?

After the Welsh lovebirds left the villa, the couple moved in together in Wales, where they're both from. However, four months later the pair sadly split, though they insisted they would remain good friends.

Nicole later explained the reason for the split, saying: "I was so busy with work, and he had loads of commitments. When you come out of that bubble, the real world sets in."
