What is Haris' job?

Haris works as a TV salesman! However, by the sounds of his pre-villa interview he's a sportsman at heart.

He said: "I'm good at any sport; tennis, ping pong... I'm very competitive. If you start doing press ups I won't stop until you stop."

Haris also revealed Cristiano Ronaldo is his idol, confessing his mum tells him he looks like the football legend. He also spilled he'd want Ronaldo play him in a movie of his life and listed the sports star in his dream line-up of celebrity dinner guests, adding Floyd Mayweather and Rita Ora.

How old is Haris?

Haris is 21 years old, making him one of the youngest series nine Islanders alongside Anna-May Robey who is 20.

Does Haris have Instagram?

You can follow Haris on Instagram @haris_namanii. Given that the rules for Islanders' are different this year, their social accounts will remain dormant until they leave the villa.

What happened with Haris and his ex-girlfriend Courtney?

After Haris was announced as an Islander it was revealed he had a girlfriend just a few months ago. Courtney Hodgson claimed he dumped her to go on the show.

In a chat with Capital FM `and other journalists, Haris explained they were seeing each other over the summer but things didn't work out.

He said: "The situation that I had with Courtney is we were seeing each other through summer. September time I said to her, 'I don't think it's going to work out.' After a few months, I never saw her as being 'the one', [or] having a future as you'd say. She never met my mum or dad.

"I don't know why she's seen it as a different view, you could probably say she was more interested in me than I was in her."
