Ahead of her return to the villa, Harriett said: "I think that my last time in the Villa was cut too short so I think I deserve a second chance, I’m looking forward to it!"
She previously dated Ronnie Vint during her stint on the show last summer, and she revealed she's not looking for a second romance with her ex.
"[I want to] explore new connections… but I definitely need to have a conversation with Ronnie though, I think that’s important.
Harriett added: "I don’t know how I’m going to feel when I see him, I haven’t seen him in months, we last spoke in September."

She also took a swipe at her former fella, saying she was looking for "someone who’s mature, not a boy – I feel like I need a man now."
As for Montel, he is returning after starring in the 2023 summer series, where he dated - and later split from - Leah Taylor.
Revealing he hopes to show more of his "cheeky side" this time around, Montel said he wants to change perceptions of his past stint in the villa.
He explained: "I think people thought I was a bit boring or not that talkative, but there was just no drama for me.

"Some people like to talk up when there’s loads of people in the room to be the loudest. I’m not going to compete with someone and speak the loudest. I’m just chill. "
His red flag this time around?
"Girls that go out clubbing a lot," he said.
As Harriett and Montel make waves, the islanders are still reeling from Olivia and Marcel's exit.
The pair's farewell came as the islanders were called to the firepit, where they learned that the public had been voting for the most compatible couple.
As well as Liv and Marcel, Catherine and Nas and Elma and Ronnie got the fewest votes.
But it was Michelle Keegan's former body double and the ex Blazin' Squad member who came out at the bottom and got their marching orders.
Asked whether he thinks he and Liv have a future outside the villa, Marcel said: "Me and Liv are still gonna get to know each other and see how things pan out, it's still quite early days, we’ll see what happens, I’m looking forward to it."
Liv added: "It's nice that we're out now and we can get back home and give each other our numbers and start texting and dating as you would on the outside but still navigate stuff together."
