AJ Love Island Age: Reality Star Returns for Second Chance at Love

AJ Bunker Makes Bombshell Return to Love Island All Stars

Love Island All Stars 2026 is back with a bang and one bombshell making her mark in the villa is AJ Bunker. The reality television personality, known for her brief but memorable appearance on Season 7 of Love Island in 2021, has returned to the villa hoping for a second chance at finding love.

How Old is AJ Bunker?

Born on December 9, 1993, Andrea Jane Bunker is currently 32 years old as she enters the Love Island All Stars villa in 2026. When she first appeared on Love Island Season 7, AJ was a 28-year-old hair extension technician from Hertfordshire. Her age has been a topic of discussion amongst viewers, particularly during her original season when fans noted the age gap between her and some of the younger male contestants.

AJ’s First Love Island Journey

AJ (also known as Andrea-Jane) first came to fame when she appeared in season seven of Love Island where she couples up with Hugo Hammond. She entered the villa on Day 17 and was dumped from the island on Day 23. Her time on the show was short-lived, leaving viewers wanting to see more of her personality and potential connections.

Ready for a Fresh Start

Returning to Love Island All Stars, AJ is determined to approach the experience differently. She disclosed what she wants to do differently this time round: “I just want to not be so in my shell. My friends and family watching knew it wasn’t me and I was being reserved. There were times during my previous series where I should have spoken up and said ‘That’s not ok’ – I was putting my own feelings aside.”

Life After Love Island

Since her original appearance, AJ has pursued various ventures including boxing. In 2024 the Love Island contestant revealed to The Sun: “I’m very single, I had a boyfriend and found out he met with his ex behind my back, lied to me about a lot of stuff… I caught him on loudspeaker talking about another woman.” Her romantic struggles have only strengthened her resolve to find genuine love.

What AJ Brings to All Stars 2026

Despite meeting fellow Islander Konnor Ewudzi on the outside, AJ set her sights on Shaq Muhammad when she entered the villa, despite him being in a couple with Helena Ford. Now older and more confident, AJ is poised to make a lasting impact on Love Island All Stars, bringing maturity, authenticity, and a refreshed perspective to her quest for love. Viewers are eager to see how her second villa experience unfolds and whether she’ll finally find her perfect match.
