Love Island's Liberty will be “civil” when she sees Jake on All Stars
She hopes that they both can find love with other people on the series.
It wouldn't be Love Island if there wasn't a spot of drama, and it looks like there will be just that in the forthcoming All Stars series, which will see exes Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish in the villa alongside one another.
Viewers will, of course, remember when Liberty and Jake first met in 2021 and eventually decided to leave the show as the show came closer to the final.
Despite trying to make things work, Liberty had doubts about their relationship when Jake said Liberty gave him the "ick".
Now, the former flames will be heading into the Love Island villa once again and, in true Love Island fashion, they have no idea the other will be in there.
Speaking to RadioTimes.com and other press ahead of her appearance on Love Island: All Stars, Liberty said that if she did come face to face with Jake again, she would remain "civil" and is even open to the idea of them being friends.
"Obviously that was two, three years ago now and I actually haven't really spoke to him since I saw him one time at my friend's birthday party after the villa," she said.
Liberty continued: "But that was kind of the last time I really properly saw him in person. And I haven't spoke to him since. If he's in there and wants a conversation, I'm happy to have a conversation with him."

Looking back on her time in the villa, Liberty says she doesn't have "any regrets" about her experience, and noted that she had learnt a lot about herself.
The former islander told RadioTimes.com and other press that if she and Jake are both in the villa together, she will want him to focus on finding love, as that's what she will be doing.
"I'm going to be focusing on finding love as well. And I don't want us being in the same room to take away from each other's experiences," she said.
"So I think we're just going to be probably civil and honestly maybe we could even be mates. Maybe? I don't know."
