The Casa Amor contestants include social media influencers, a DJ and an American football player.
The Love Island villa is about to be rocked by a bunch of new bombshells and it remains to be seen whether the likes of Jake Cornish, Liam Reardon and Teddy Soares will have their heads turned.
The boys will be sent to Casa Amor while the girls, including Liberty Poole, Millie Court and Faye Winter, get to know a group of new lads.
