Grace Jackson might've just missed out on the Love Island final, but we have an inkling her star is only just starting to soar – which is saying something considering prior to appearing on Love Island 2024 she already had 90,000 Instagram followers (she now has 613,000, FYI) and had once dated TOWIE icon turned Islander, Joey Essex.

Grace was dumped alongside Reuben Collins just days ahead of the series 11 final after the BRUTAL couples ranking challenge 'Couple of Sorts' sealed their fate.
The couple dated for a few short weeks after leaving the villa, before parting ways, leaving everyone wondering whether she will slow-mo walk through those villa doors once again for All Stars 2025? Because let's be honest, if one former Love Island 2024 star was giving All Stars energy from day one, it's Grace.

Last night, the rumours were proven true when Grace sauntered into the Love Island villa alongside winter Love Island runner-up Ron Hall, shortly after India Reynolds' brutal dumping.
Upon entering the villa, Grace told producers, 'I feel like at this time in my life I’m in a very settled place. I know who I am and I’m at the age where I’ve had enough of my single years. I've done everything I wanted to do in my single life and I'm looking to settle down and create a nice life with someone. What better place to do it than in the Villa?'

Welcome back, queen.

Who did Grace Jackson couple up with on Love Island 2024?
How long have you got?
Okay, here we go... upon entering the villa, she rekindled things with her ex Joey and the pair coupled up on day 16. Grace was then stolen by Konnor Ewudzi, but she remained loyal to Joey. Joey then had his head turned by bombshell Jessy Potts leaving Grace single and ready to mingle in Casa Amor, where she met butler-in-the-buff Blade Siddiqi.
She coupled up with Blade and brought him back to the main villa on day 31. That soon fizzled out and she was left single for a few days, where she spent a hot minute getting to know new bombshell Harry Baker. That went down like a lead balloon and on day 40, she officially coupled up with Reuben, and despite the relationship being a slow burner (and him bizarrely calling her a 'lamp post' in front of the entire villa) they left the show together just ahead of the final following a savage dumping.

If you followed all that, bravo.
How did Grace Jackson know Joey Essex?
Upon Grace entering the villa on day 12, Joey claimed that he had been 'seeing' her once upon a time.
Grace later told the Islanders, 'We met last year in Ibiza and it's actually funny because he's not my type at all. We had a bit of a holiday romance. It carried on when we were back home. It was quite intense. We were seeing each other for a few months. It kind of ended a little bit frosty to be honest and we've not really spoken since.'

What has Grace Jackson said about Joey Essex since leaving the villa?
Despite being in isolation, Grace did manage to have a candid post-dumping chat with producers and throw a little shade Joey's way. She said, 'I went in and coupled up with Joey which was a past relationship that I’d had.'
Grace continued, 'I never knew which way it was going to go between us. As soon as I entered the villa it was apparent that there were still feelings there.'

Speaking of her close friendship with Jessy - who Joey eventually had his head turned by – Grace added, 'I think that’s why Joey had a problem with me as he couldn’t get his head around the fact that I was best friends with his girl.'
