From a love triangle with Shakira Khan and Harry Cooksley to the infamous ‘Bikini Gate’, Helena Ford gave viewers a truly unforgettable summer of entertainment last year. Now, less than six months later, she’s back for round two with Love Island All Stars.
Despite being one of last year's most talked-about islanders, she has struggled to connect with anyone this time around - something ex, Harry, has spoken out about on social media. But love may be on the horizon, as she revisited an old connection with Carrington Rodriguez.
As All Stars viewers watch this unfold, many have tried to dig up information about her - just as they did with American bombshell Zac Woodworth, who had a hair transplant - which has led to old photos from before her time in the villa to circulate online.
While Helena's Instagram posts only go back as far as 2020, Love Island sleuths have managed to find images of Helena from at least ten years ago.
With the pictures being approximately a decade old, the makeup, hair and fashion is notably different to the kind of glam Helena styles herself in now.
And if the makeup didn't give away the era, those 2010s Instagram filters are a sign of the times for sure.
Fans have speculated that Helena has had lip filler and this was reportedly confirmed in an Instagram post where she checked into a clinic and said she was a "regular client".
There has also been speculation that she had her teeth done, but she hasn't commented on this.
Reacting to the pictures, one fan wrote, "Is this really her tho this is a diff person," and another said: "That's a completely different person WTAF."
One penned: "wow fair play to her, she had a mahoosive glow up."
However many have argued she looks almost the same but has obviously just matured since when the pictures were taken.
