Stock up on the fake tan and don your best bikini – Love Island is back!
ITV2 has officially unveiled the 12 contestants entering the villa this summer, with Tyson Fury’s brother and Strictly star AJ Pritchard’s sibling included in the line-up.
A firefighter and scientist are also in the running, as well as a chef, aircraft engineer and a gym owner.
Now entering its fifth series, Love Island will return to our screens on June 3.
“The secret behind Love Island’s success is that it’s a really simple show about a really complicated subject,” said host Caroline Flack.
“It’s relatable and that is the thing that’s never going to change.”
Can’t wait until Monday to get your Love Island fix? Here’s how to find the prospective Love Island contestants on Instagram:
Yewande Biala
Yewande is a 23-year old scientist from Dublin.
“Every time I say that I’m a scientist, people are shocked,” she said.
Her social media presence is already pretty strong, boasting 15.7k Instagram followers.
Michael Griffiths
Michael is a firefighter from Liverpool.
“Who doesn’t love their own firefighter? Their own local hero,” said the 27-year-old.
The part-time personal trainer has 20.8k followers on Instagram.
Lucie Donlan
Surfer Lucie is hoping to make waves in the Love Island villa.
“I’m more into sports as well as being glam,” she said.
The 21-year-old currently has a whopping 65.9k followers on Instagram.

Anton, 24, will be representing Scotland in the villa.
“I don’t think there has been a Scottish guy on the show before,” he said.
The gym owner has an impressive following of 16.8k on Instagram.
Amber Gill
Beauty therapist Amber describes herself as having a “big personality” and is “always up for a laugh.”
“I want someone who is funny and that I can have fun with and doesn’t take themselves too seriously because I am daft,” she said.
The 21-year-old has just over 6,600 followers on Instagram.
Callum Macleod
Aircraft engineer Callum is searching for the real deal in the Love Island villa.
“I’m 28 now so time is ticking, I don’t want to be left on the shelf. The whole experience is going to be great and if I meet someone, that’s what I’m here for,” he said.
Callum has 11.4k followers on Instagram – but he can expect an even bigger following after his stint on Love Island.
Amy Hart
Amy works as a flight attendant, which she says makes it “impossible” for her to find a boyfriend.
“I’m looking for someone to travel the world with, have fun with and someone who is going to love me as much as I love them,” the 27-year-old said.
Amy shares her travels on her Instagram page, which has just over 17,000 followers.
Joe Garratt
Despite his cheeky persona, the 22-year-old from south east London is an old romantic.
“I’ve always said that love is a super powerful thing. If I genuinely feel that connection, the change for love, then I’ll go leaps and bounds for that,” he said.
The catering company owner shares his vacations, gym sessions and nights out on his Instagram page, which has over 14,000 followers.
Anna Vakili
Pharmacist Anna is already something of an Instagram celebrity thanks to partying it up with her sister and two Iranian footballers earlier this year.
“I ended up on the Iranian News earlier this year [because of it],” she said. “Suddenly my followers went up by 20,000 and I started being tagged in fan pages.”
And the 28-year-old’s popularity shows, having racked up over 39,000 followers on Instagram.
Tommy Fury
The brother of boxing superstar Tyson describes himself as “honest, charismatic and charming.”
“I feel like I’ve got a unique personality and Love Island is a good place to showcase it,” the 20-year-old said.
As a professional boxer himself, Tommy often shares his training sessions on his Instagram, which tops the Love Island list at 63.8k followers.
Sherif Lanre
As a chef and semi-professional rugby player, it’s no surprise the Londoner is bursting with energy.
“I lift anyone’s mood who is around me, whether that is through trying or not. I feel like if you’re down and around me, you’ll end up being more upbeat,” the 20-year-old said.
You can find out what Sherif’s been up to prior to Love Island on his Instagram page, which has 10,500 followers.
Curtis Pritchard
Last but not least is the baby brother of Strictly star AJ Pritchard, who said he’s not too picky when it comes to finding the right girl.
“This sounds really clichéd but love is blind and I truly do believe that. I like blondes and an athletic body, not too fake and somebody that respects themselves,” said Curtis, 23.
Like his brother, Curtis is also a professional ballroom dancer, and you can keep track of his antics via his Instagram page, which has 62.5k followers.
Love Island is on ITV2, June 3 at 9pm
