Fans may remember Ron for his romance with Lana Jenkins that blossomed during series nine of the ITV show.
The fan favourite is not long out of a relationship with Love Island bombshell Lydia Karakyriakou.
The two former islanders got together last year and they went public in November 2024.
They quietly split over Christmas that year and deleted their photos together from their social media pages.
Viewers are now interested to see if Ron can find lasting love during his second time around in the villa.
An insider revealed: “Ron was approached for the All Stars series shortly after his split with Lydia.
“He’s ready to throw himself back into the Love Island experience and see if sparks fly with someone new.”
Who is Ron Hall?
Born in 1996, Ron Hall is a finance worker who hails from Essex.
He has switched the world of business to become a reality star on Love Island 2023.
Speaking about being selected for the show, he told ITV: “I think it’s the best show to find love on.
“I’m now 25 and I had in my head that I’d be with someone, settled and married by say 27… it’s now coming awfully close to that.
Ron lost the sight in his right eye in a footballing accident as a youngster, and as a result, he is blind in one eye.
Talking about the day it happened, he said: “On meeting me, you’d never know I am blind in one eye. It was the result of a football injury when I was 8; I went in for a header and got kicked in the face.

“I’ve got two different coloured eyes, one blue and one green.
“It’s added to my character, there are so many people that are worse off than me. And if anything, losing something like that makes you realise that.
“It’s not hindered me in any shape or form. It’s a good conversation starter I must admit.”
He follows model Tasha Ghouri who appeared as the first deaf contestant in the 2022 summer series.
