Who are Love Island new boys Finley Tapp and Connagh Howard? Late arrivals to the enter villa

At the end of Wednesday night's Love Island, the Islanders were told to expect the imminent entrance of two new arrivals, well now we know who they are,

On Tuesday afternoon it was confirmed that Ollie Williams had left Love Island , with him later breaking his silence on why he left.

Hours later, rumours starting circulating about student Aaron Borland being the Love Island new boy and those could turn out to be true as a teaser for Wednesday night's show confirms that the Islanders will be told about two new arrivals.

It's Lewis Capaldi's ex Paige who gets the text that warns the villa to expectant their imminent entrance, leaving them all stunned.

Viewers are set to get their first look at new boys Connagh Howard and Finley Tapp on Thursday's show. Here's the lowdown on them...

Love Island: Two new boys are heading into the villa

Connagh Howard, 27, Cardiff

Model Connagh's big claim to fame is that he was in an advert with Anthony Joshua.

He explains "I’m a big boxing fan. I was really excited to meet him. In the ad we are both training. It was pretty nerve-wracking, he’s a big boy!"

On the subject of how far he'll go in the villa to get what he wants, Connagh said "If I really like someone, I’m definitely going to make an effort, I’m not going to let the opportunity go by. But, I’m not going to try and be a homewrecker."

Finley Tapp, 20, Milton Keynes

Recruitment consultant Finley is also a semi-pro footballer for Oxford City.

On what will make him the perfect Islander he says "I’m a relationship kinda guy so I’m looking for a partner to come out of the villa with. I know I’ll make friends with the blokes in there too so I should be a good contender."

The first ever winter 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.
