Love Island 2020: Sophie Piper Returns to Find Love

Love Island 2020 has welcomed two new explosive bombshells in the form of series 6’s Sophie Piper and series 9’s [Name of second bombshell]. Sophie, whose stint in the first-ever winter Love Island was cut short, is now back in South Africa to find her Mr. Right. Reuniting with former cast mates [Name of cast mate 1] and [Name of cast mate 2], Sophie admits that she remains a one-man kind of girl, but will she finally find her true love this time?

Sophie, aged 24 and hailing from Essex, works as an influencer after previously being a medical PA. She is hopeful that this time around, she will have better luck and find a lasting relationship. Before entering the villa, Sophie expressed her desire to find someone, saying, ‘I had a fun experience the first time around but I didn’t go the full way and find love, so I’d love to find someone this time. I’m quite chilled and don’t want drama, so I think I will approach this time round in a similar way. I’m a one guy kind of girl.’

For those who didn’t already know, Sophie is the younger half-sister of the famous Rochelle Humes. She also has another lookalike sister named Lili and a brother. Sophie’s family will surely be surprised to see her return to Love Island, as Sophie reveals, ‘They are going to die seeing me back on their TV screens. It’s going to be a shock. They got so obsessed with the show the first time round.’

Sophie’s previous Love Island journey was brief, as she was only part of the original cast in the first winter edition. She initially coupled up with Connor Durman, but was later stolen by Connagh Howard. Although they developed feelings for each other, their time together in the villa was cut short. Sophie was dumped from the island just a week after Connor. Reports suggest that Sophie and Connor continued to see each other outside the villa and were in a relationship until the COVID-19 lockdown, although they never openly confirmed or denied their romance.

Other notable cast members from series 6 included Natalia Zoppa, Finnley Tapp, Paige Turley, and Demi Jones. With her return to Love Island, Sophie is ready for a second chance at love and is determined to make it count. Will she finally find her perfect match in the villa?
