Another Adam Collard moment.

Former Love Island star Arabella Chi has just dropped a major hint that she could be returning to the show for the upcoming winter series.

After originally appearing on the show back in 2019, Arabella lasted eight days in the villa before her time ultimately came to an end.

But after a cryptic post on social media, it seems her time on the show might not be finished yet as she pulls an Adam Collard on it.

Posing in swimwear, Arabella wrote on Instagram: “Super excited for the year ahead coming back on your tv screens this month so keep your eyes peeled as you won’t want to miss it.”

It didn’t take long before fans immediately jumped to the comment section (and to a lot of conclusions), wondering if she could be a bombshell in the upcoming 2023 season.

One fan wrote: “Why u coming back on love island.”

Another said: “Back on the tv screens.”

While a third wrote simply posted some side eye emojis.

Arabella could be following in the footsteps of Adam Collard, who first appeared on the show in 2018 before making a bombshell appearance in the 2022 series, making it all the way to fifth place with Paige Thorne.

Fans of the show deemed him the ultimate bombshell as it was the first time in the dating series’ history that a former contestant had been brought back to another season.

But Adam isn’t the only Love Island contestant to return. After a huge revamp, the US version saw a much loved contestant from an earlier season return.

The USA show brought back a once beloved islander and did the same thing, only this time it was season two’s Mackenzie Dipman.

Much like Adam, she was a fan favourite on the show back in 2020 and spoke about heading back into the villa to People Magazine.

“I just think it’s going to be a lot more fun this time around, a lot less pressure,” she told People. “I think that’s just one of the luxuries of getting a little bit older is that you just kind of learn to let go of certain insecurities.”
