A LOVE Island legend has been banned from the All Stars series after appearing on rival show Ex On The Beach.
The star won Love Island three years ago and moved in with her boyfriend shortly after leaving the villa.
The couple starred in series six of Love Island, the first to be filmed in a villa near Cape Town in South Africa.
However, they went their separate ways in April.
Paige Turley, 26, then signed up to Ex On The Beach, which was filmed back in October but has yet to be aired on screen.
She has now been blocked from Love Island: All Stars because MTV doesn’t allow contestants to appear on rival dating shows before the series has aired.
A source told The Sun: “Paige is absolutely gutted as she was desperate to do All Stars but there was a clause in the contract with MTV that essentially stopped her from doing so.
“It would have been different if Celeb Ex On The Beach had already aired, and she was hoping it might have done by now, but as it’s still to be screened, she’s essentially been blocked from entering the villa.
“ITV bosses were miffed too, as they would have loved to have Paige back.
“If All Stars returns for another series next Winter, you can pretty much guarantee that, if she is single, she will be in the mix.”
In April The Sun revealed it was all over between Scottish singer Paige and footballer Finn – with her moving out of the apartment they shared in Manchester.
A source said: “Paige and Finn had a really good run, but they are still super young and decided it wasn’t forever in the end.
“Paige is spending some time back in Scotland while she works out what she wants to do next.”
The star – who won Love Island with Finn Tapp in 2020 – has a very famous ex having once dated superstar Lewis Capaldi.
Tonight fans will see some very familiar faces moving back into the Love Island villa for another chance at romance – with bombshells arriving later in the series.
The likes of Georgia Harrison and Jake Cornish are ready and waiting to crack on but viewers can also look forward to the classic bombshell twists.
Love Island: All Stars airs tonight at 9pm on ITV1, ITV2, ITVX and STV.
