Love Island new boy set to enter villa and is tipped to be student Aaron Borland

We've already seen two new girls enter the villa and seriously ruffle some feathers and now speculation is rife that a new boy could be about to make a shock entrance.

At the end of Sunday's launch episode, we saw twins Eve and Jess enter the villa and they immediately made their presence felt by stealing two other girls' men within their first 24 hours on the show.

But now, especially after Ollie Williams quit Love Island on Tuesday, insiders and fans of the show are predicting a new guy will make a splash in the luxury £5.3 million in South Africa.

And the guy in question is rugby playing student Aaron Borland, with one of his friends telling Mirror Online:  “He’s flown to South Africa and he told a group of people he is going on Love Island.

Aaron comes from Biggleswade in Bedfordshire, and is mates with pro cricketer Emilio Gay, who plays for Northamptonshire.

Love Island bosses always keep the identities of potential Love Island bombshells well under wraps but, in what could be a big hint that he is on his way to South Africa, or indeed already there, he has been absent from social media since last week.

Twitter reacts: Ollie Williams quits Love Island after three days

The new series of Love Island has been hit by some controversy some far. Ofcom received over 300 complaints about the launch episode , largely down to 'trophy hunter' Ollie being allowed to take part, after a now deleted image was shared online showing him posing next to a dead animal.

And before he announced he was quitting, a petition urging ITV to kick him off the show had attracted over 16,000 signatures.
