LOVE Island’s Jack Fowler has revealed show bosses are so desperate for him to do All Stars they phone him up before each series.

He remains one of the most popular villa hunks out there but don’t expect to see him make it a hat-trick of appearances.
“I’m 30 now, so when you’re 22, going into a villa with a load of fit women and just having a great summer, it’s great, do you know what I mean?” exclusively told The Sun.
“And it was such a great opportunity. I think I’d done it obviously in 2018, I’d then done it in America, won it in America. So for me, I’ve left it on such a high.
“I don’t know if going back would bring that kind of buzz back again. And where I’ve kind of done my own thing and built my own career over here, going back into that whirlwind of Love Island, not to say that it would hinder it, but I’ve worked so hard to kind of separate the two.”

It’s not just producers and fans who want Jack’s villa return, this year’s All Stars girls craved the chance to get to know him and hoped for his arrival as a bombshell.
Newly-single ended up smitten with American Zac Woodworth on the show, but she later admitted she wanted her crush Jack to make an appearance, telling podcast host Jamie Laing: “A lot of the girls requested him.”
“Listen, it’s always nice to hear that they want me back in,” said Jack, speaking on behalf of Freebets.com .
“Every All Stars, I get a call from the same producer. And I know, when I see a name pop up on my phone, I just go, it’s that time of the year again is it? And we just crack up.
“They have to ask, and I respect it, they have to ask, they have to see what’s going on in my life, if anything’s changed.
“But yeah, I just think at this stage of my life, Love Island is such a big part of my life, but I think where I’m at now, it would be very hard to even do it because it’s during the summer, and that’s when my tour is. So it’s a difficult one.”
Jack is now an established house music DJ, with new music out on Friday and a European summer tour ahead of him.
He learned to mix during the coronavirus pandemic when he was struck down with the that left him temporarily partially paralysed and needing to learn to walk again.
“I would definitely say how I learned how to DJ was a real pinnacle point in my life because I didn’t have any movement,” said Jack. “So learning to DJ was something I could do while sitting down and being able to move my right hand. So having that ability to focus on something that kind of kept my mind ticking was great.
“It kick-started what was a really bad time in my life.
“It was funny because lockdown finished and then I’m chucked into the club scene, which is what you want, and I went into the straight headliner, and everyone’s looking at me for half an hour, and I’m like, I’m also still learning.”
Fast forward five years and Jack has honed his craft and played everywhere from the Maldives to Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
He’s mixed with top talent in the scene and picked the brains of fellow reality star-turned-DJ Joel Corry, who told him to always have another banger ready to go, even when a hit song is flying high.
“It’s just been great,” said Jack. “I’ve always had a big love for music. I’ve been brought up on a wide range of music through reggae, ska music, R&B, hip hop.
“But house always had a special place. And so playing house music is just kind of second nature to me. I listen to it all the time.
“And I feel like right now, the music scene has really led towards the house and dance world. So it’s been a really good time to be a DJ. And I’ve loved it.”
