We were first to report how model Danielle had previously locked horns with now-dumped All Stars contestant Kaz Crossley over a Love Island hunk.
And the former Sun page three girl's close bond with the late Mike Thalassitis has now resurfaced.
During her time on the show in 2017, she briefly romanced Jonny Mitchell but was dumped on Day 31 by Marcel Somerville.
But after finding fame on the matchmaking series, Danielle and Mike saw sparks fly.

The former couple hinted at romance rumours after they put on a passionate display at an awards ceremony in 2017.
The duo then attended a series of Red Carpet events together and even joined forces to open a kebab shop in Birmingham in 2018.
Yet after Mike died by suicide in 2019, Danielle took to social media to reveal their strength of feeling.
She uploaded a snap showing the pair together and the words: "My heart is broken. Will cherish our memories forever.

"So grateful to have spent the last weekend with you. Can’t believe I’m saying it Rest in peace Mike."
She added the words: "Ps. Mike you don’t understand how hard it was for me to find appropriate pictures for Insta miss you."
An inquest heard how Mike committed suicide after a cocaine and booze binge and left suicide notes next to his body.
He was believed to have been grieving the death of his 94-year-old gran and faced mounting debts before his death.

Danielle is now set to stir things up in the All Stars villa in Cape Town.
She is entering the South Africa compound alongside former winner Sammy Root.
Ahead of her return, a source said: “Danielle is smoking hot and is the ideal age for Scott as he’s drifting apart from Tina after the explosive Vegas row with Luca."

YOU'RE NOT ALONE
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide.
It doesn't discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society - from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It's the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
Yet it's rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You're Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let's all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others... You're Not Alone.
