It's only been a few days since she was dumped from the Love Island villa in one of the most brutal and shocking evictions in the show's history, but it has now been confirmed that 2023 Islander Molly Marsh is returning to the villa!

On Friday (30th June) night's show, Molly's return was confirmed during the preview for Sunday night's episode, when voiceover Iain Stirling said "guess who is back", before Molly was videoed strutting behind the four other new bombshells.

With rumours rife in recent days that Molly would make a sensational return to the villa during the infamous Casa Amor week, the 21-year-old added fuel to the whispers, sharing photos of herself flying back to Spain earlier this week.

Molly posted a photo from the sky as she travelled to the party island of Ibiza on Wednesday 28th June, before sharing a number of snaps on the White Isle.

Viewers predicted Molly would make a return following her shock dumping last week, after the shock return of series two Islander Kady McDermott.

Winter Love Island star Olivia Hawkins also recently discussed the potential of Molly returning. Speaking in her Love Island column for OK!, Liv wrote: 'I really don't think this is the last we have seen of Molly on this year's show.

'I have a feeling she will return to the show during Casa Amor - which will be very awkward if Zachariah pursues anything romantic with Kady.'

But in true Love Island style, bosses threw a spanner into the works by introducing series two Islander Kady McDermott, who went on to steal Zachariah, immediately sending Molly home in one of the most shocking moments in the show's history.

Following her exit, Molly said: "When I got the text to find out that I’d be dumped from the Island everyone around the fire pit was so shocked. No-one expected it. My eyes went straight to the word ‘bags’ on the text and I thought, ‘Oh my goodness, I’m going.’

“I saw Zach’s face drop. And seeing Kady and Zach standing in front of me together, my heart dropped. I just didn’t want to see it but I understood it needed to happen and I trust in the timing of the universe and everything happening for a reason. So I knew it was clearly my time to go and if something good will come from me and Zach then it still will. If he finds something with Kady then that’s that.”

Now Molly is back, will Zachariah turn his head back?

Love Island continues every night on ITV2 at 9pm.
