Megan Barton Hanson’s BRUTAL reason why she refused to appear on Love Island: All Stars

She ranks as one of the wealthiest stars to emerge from Love Island with an estimated worth of over £2million.

But despite her success, Megan Barton Hanson has firmly ruled out a return to the villa for the highly anticipated Love Island: All Stars.

In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, the former islander revealed: ‘There’s not one [person on the show] I would f***. That’s why I’m not there.’

Speaking on the All Stars 2025 cast, she continued: ‘The girl line-up is unreal, but sorry, the male side…what has happened?’

The line-up in question features Maura Higgins’ ex, a series three finalist couple, and a former show winner.

For Megan, 30, however, the only man who could have tempted her back would have been series five’s Ovie Soko.

But despite her success, the model has firmly ruled out a return to the villa for the highly anticipated Love Island: All Stars

Megan made her Love Island debut in series four in 2018 (pictured) and returned for a second stint for Love Island Games in 2023

‘I messaged him when they asked me to do the last one and he said “I’m not doing it” so I pulled out,’ she revealed.

While the male lineup has not sparked her interest, Megan was quick to say she is ‘so happy there are so many hot girls in there’ this year.

‘Like India [Reynolds], Liv [Hawkins], Gabby [Allen], there are so many iconic people in there it’s going to be amazing,’ she added.

And while Love Island might be firmly off the table, Megan remains as bold as ever about her goals for the year ahead.

‘Just big d**** and lots of money!’ she declared, when asked what she is manifesting for 2025.

Megan soared to fame on season four of Love Island after finishing in fourth place with Wes Nelson, but the couple ultimately split five months after the show ended, with Megan later revealing that Wes, 26, prioritised money and his career over their relationship.

Speaking exclusively to the Mail’s podcast Straight to the Comments! she revealed: ‘Yeah, we’re like civil, we’re friends. If I saw him [Wes] out, I’d chat to him.’

Elsewhere in the chat, Megan – who came out as bisexual in 2019 – explained the difference between her romantic relationships with women and men.

While the male lineup has not sparked her interest, Megan was quick to say she is ‘so happy there are so many hot girls in there’ this year

She explained: ‘I try not to look at gender. I think for me it’s more about the connection I have with someone. If they’re bringing something to my life, they’re making me a better version of myself, and they’re just a nice person.’

It comes as the star, who was catapulted to fame through her 2018 appearance on the ITV reality show, revealed last month that it took her 11 years to realise she was once the victim of rape.

Megan was a teenager when she became a victim of stealthing after her boyfriend of six months reportedly removed his condom without her consent.

This brutal discovery came on-air while taking part in a podcast with relationship expert Paul Carrick Brunson.

She revealed that the stomach-churning moment caused her whole body to ‘burn’ as she accepted that she had been the victim of a serious sexual offence without her knowledge.

Megan said: ‘I literally learned of it on the podcast with Paul. We were going through my life journey, I touched on this topic which I had never talked about publicly before.

‘He said “You are aware that this is rape,” and I was like, “No it’s not.”

‘I didn’t know if I was in denial to myself because I was fully consenting to have sex with my partner, my boyfriend of six months.

‘Paul then said, “Yes, but you were not consenting for him to remove the condom without your knowledge.”’

Worse still, this boyfriend – whose identity she chose not to disclose – caused her to become pregnant by removing the condom during intercourse.

Together the couple opted to terminate the pregnancy, but he fell into a furious outburst on the way home from the procedure.

‘I have worked through my trauma. It is my experience and I have dealt with it,’ she revealed.
