LOVE Island will be sent into a spin this weekend with the return of Casa Amor.
The Sun revealed the spin-off villa’s comeback this week – and TOWIE alumni Joey Essex, 33, is set for yet another shock.
Casa Amor sees Love Island‘s sexy singletons split into girls and boys, with one group heading off to a separate villa while the others remain in the original compound.
Now the 12 new arrivals have been revealed – here we take a look.
THE BOYS
Hugo Godfroy, 24
Hunky Hugo lives in Southampton and works as an electrician.
He’s a good guy and admits he’ll be “an honest islander and never afraid to be myself.”
Talking of who he’s got his sights set on in the villa he said: “I like Uma, I think she carries herself well and seems very respectful. The same with Jess as my type is brunette.”
Jake Spivey, 25
Jake also works as an electrician – so he’ll have plenty to natter to Hugo about.
The Essex lad admits he’s direct, “very confident” and a “social butterfly” – so he’ll be gunning for what he wants.
That happens to be bombshell Matilda and he said: “She’s my type to a tee. She said she likes muscles, tan, teeth… I thought, cool, she seems like a good ball of fun. I’m going to go for her. Grace is attractive as well.”
Moziah Pinder, 29
Brighton-based Moziah works as a PT – so that’ll explain the ripped abs.
He’s not after a love triangle – rather a “genuine connection” – and vowed to be his “best self” in the spin-off villa.
The karate brown belt has his sights set on Grace, Mimii and Uma – the latter of whom he describes as “stunning.”
Blade Siddiqui, 29
Body-confident Blade works as a butler in the buff – and has vowed to “shake things up” in Casa Amor.
The Stevenage lad is 6’4 and after someone who “would make me want to hang up my bow tie for good.”
Love Island LATEST Couples
LOVE Island’s latest coupling-up ceremony saw a big shock twist- but who is now partnered up?
- Grace & Konnor
- Matilda & Sean
- Jess & Joey
- Mimii & Ayo
- Nicole & Ciaran
- Uma & Wil
- Harriett and Ronnie
He reckons this could be Uma, Grace or Matilda, describing Grace as the “spitting image” of his ex.
Joel Kirby, 22
Joel is an economics and politics post-grad – and reckons a sophisticated natter will “talk me into bed.”
The Devon lad has let slip his direct manner and said: “I’m quite impulsive. I speak before I think and clear up the mess afterwards… which is kind of funny. I’m going in to try and pull someone quickly, so you’ve got to be loose and straight to the point.”
He’s after pulling Uma and Grace for chats in the spin-off villa.
Lionel Awudu, 24
The financial advisor from Reading is bringing “confidence, good energy and good vibes.”
Mimii, Uma and Grace top his list.
In a potential threat for Mimii’s partner Ayo, he said: “Besides the fact that they’re all very beautiful, in terms of personality, Mimii is more the reserved, chilled type. That matches me.”
GIRLS
Diamanté Laiva, 21
The Londoner works as the owner of a natural beauty firm – and isn’t afraid to stir the pot.
She said: “If I have a problem with something, whoever it is, I’ll tell them right then and there. I don’t feel the need to whisper behind someone’s back.”
As well as causing potential conflict she’s after Wil – who she said is “waiting for me to arrive, he just doesn’t know it yet.”
Lucy Graybill, 26
The Glasgow girl is after “someone who can be my best friend as well as my boyfriend.”
She works as a retail store manager and insists she’s the perfect balance between a straight talker and a shoulder for support.
Lucy’s not afraid to meddle in a closed off couple either – listing Ciaran as one of her targets.
Ellie Jackson, 22
The blonde admits she has a “fiery” personality – and a connection with Ciaran.
Cardiff-based Ellie, who is a senior executive assistant, has enjoyed chats with the rugby ace and admitted she is “looking forward to reconnecting with him in Casa Amor.”
The Welsh lass is after a “wholesome, down to earth boy” – with Wil and Sean also in the mix.
Jessica Spencer, 25
Jessica works in London as a fashion stylist.
She admits she “fancies Ayo so much” despite his connection with Mimii, and has branded Wil “a catch.”
Her red flag is a foodie one and she said: “If you don’t like pasta, we can’t be a thing. I could eat pasta for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Ruby Dale, 23
The Surrey lass vows to be “very dramatic” in the villa – so something’s bound to go down.
Social media content creator Ruby vows to be “loud” and “entertaining” and insists “I always get what I want.”
She’s after a lad with a brain, and has flagged Wil as the lucky guy.
Emma Milton, 30
Emma, from Manchester, is representing the north in Casa Amor.
She is a fashion content creator and ready to bring her “looks” into the villa.
Yet she’s sure to see sparks fly after revealing her connection to Joey as she said: “I had a brief thing with Joey a few years ago. We’ve been friends for years and I would be open to reconnecting with Joey. We get on really well and we have a lot of mutual friends. I am also friends with Grace in Manchester, so it’s a little bit awkward.”
