Love Island's Zara responds to rumour she's returning to the villa this series

"They sent in someone that I'm really interested in."

Love Island's Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown has opened up about about her rumoured return to the villa.

Zara was fast becoming a fan favourite following her bombshell entrance in week one, but she was dumped just two weeks later when Tom chose to couple up with Ellie over her following their heated argument the night before.

Now, fans are calling for Zara's return – and they think Casa Amor is the perfect opportunity for it.

Speaking exclusively to Digital Spy about the rumours, Zara said that she would definitely be up for returning, especially since she already has her sights set on one of the villa's newest bombshells.

"Short answer: yes," she said. "Of course, it's not up to me, but I don't think my journey is over, and they sent in someone that I'm really interested in, Jordan, after I left. So I feel like it would be nice to explore that in there."

It's not too surprising, then, to know that Zara would "definitely" want to couple up with Jordan if a Casa Amor twist is, in fact, on the cards.

"Out of everyone who is in there right now, I would definitely couple up with Jordan. I feel like we are definitely each other's types," she explained.

"I've heard he likes a fiery girl, feisty, who can put him in his place. Sounds like me. And he's tall. I've seen he's taller than Tom, actually, when they were all lined up, and I was like, 'We have a winner here'. So, Jordan."

Love Island airs nightly on ITV2, and is available via catch up on ITVX and BritBox.
