    None of this year's contestants have said they will not be appearing on the show, with all the stars currently expected to attend – from Casa Amor bombshells to early dumpees.

    Last year, Jacques O'Neill and Afia Tonkmor both snubbed the reunion show, making the decision not to attend alongside their fellow Islanders.

    While many excited fans look forward for the reunion episode to air, others think it is too soon for the contestants to be brought back together.

    One fan moaned: "Reunion should not be next Sunday tbh #loveisland"

    Another agreed: "reunion??? sunday??? give them a chance to marinate pls."

    A third person said: "They should do a reunion in two weeks instead of one then do another special reunion sometime in the summer (before the summer series) or another Christmas special like from S4. Doing it in a week is too soon. There will be no drama #loveisland"

    While a fourth social media agreed: "The reunion after a week is too soon, let things digest first then bring them back. #loveisland"

    Previous Love Island reunions have been explosive and have seen Islanders become embroiled in heated exchanges.

    Last year, drama quickly unfolded between Casa Amor stars Coco Lodge and Summer Botwe over fellow islander Josh Le Grove.

    Things became awkward as the show's co-host Darren Harriott was forced to split the girls up.

    Love Island: The Reunion airs Sunday, March 19 at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX
