In Love Island: The Reunion, Maya Jama will be back to reunite the castmates one last time to break down all the ins and outs of what went down in the villa.

In the past, this has included some seriously awkward confrontations between islanders now they've had a chance to see and hear what they might have missed in the villa.

With one of the key catchphrases this year being "snake", it's clear there's a lot for them to make their way through in the one-hour special.

Currently, every islander from this year's series is expected to attend – which may see some reuniting with those they'd rather not see.

One of the most obvious contention points is Casa Amor – which saw numerous recouplings and one hell of a fallout in the aftermath for Shaq Muhammad and Tanya Manhenga in particular as she chose to recouple while Shaq remained faithful.

He was already left fuming after seeing footage from Casa during the finale episode.

Casey and Will, who became tight friends in the villa, had an awkward moment just the day before on spin-off Aftersun after Maya Jama showed Will a clip of what Casey said about his relationship.

Branding his bestie a 'snake', Will looked genuinely upset as he heard Casey bad-mouthing his relationship with Jessie.

There has also been numerous clashes on this year's series, with both the girls and boys finding themselves in the middle of head-to-heads with their fellow islanders.

Ron Hall and Casey O'Gorman went toe-to-toe in the final week, with Tom Clare also storming out of other conversations when they boys confronted him about flitting between girls.

There's also the ever ongoing mystery between how Olivia and Zara Lackenby-Brown fell out before they even entered the villa, and what actually happened.

Olivia Hawkins may also have a few things to get off her chest after her awkward romance with Kai Fagan collapsed when he met Sanam

Sanam would later confront Olivia for talking about her behind her back, with the villa divided over whose side to take.

Kai and Sanam went on to win the entire series, taking home the £50,000 prize money.

Lana Jenkins and Ron Hall were runners up, Tom Clare and Samie Elishi came in third place, with Shaq and Tanya coming in fourth.

Several of the islanders have made public appearances since their exits as they've made the most of their newfound fame.

Could love have even blossomed where they least expected it after being dumped?

And how exactly have family members reacted to their potential new partners?
