LOVE Island will tonight unveil its first ever celebrity bombshell.
Whilst the series began as a celebrity format, featuring the likes of Bianca Gascoigne and Paul Danan, since 2015 it’s been led by civilians.



Some Islanders linked to famous folk have added a little stardust to casting, including Michael Owen’s daughter Gemma and Blazin Squad star Marcel Somerville.
But tonight’s new arrival is a bonafide household name and will leave viewers agog.
The famous face has enjoyed a string of romances in the spotlight but is now ready to try and find love in the dating villa.
A source said: “This is going to be the most shocking moment in Love Island history.
FIND OUT WHO THE BOMBSHELL IS HERE
“Keeping the celebrity bombshell secret has been a military operation and bosses cannot wait for viewers to see who is waiting to strut through the villa doors.”
It comes after show boss Mike Spencer told The Sun: “I know who is waiting to come in and I know they are brilliant. Bombshells are bombshells for a reason.
“There’s some great ones coming in.
“I don’t want to hype it up too much but they are so good. Let’s just talk after week one!”
In another Love Island first tonight the new Islanders experienced a cruel twist as soon as they moved into the villa.
For the first time in show history there wasn’t an immediate coupling up ceremony, with host Maya Jama instead introducing everyone at the same time.
Maya, 29, told them: “Boys and girls, I now want you to rate each other in order of who you think has come across the most like boyfriend and girlfriend material, right down to who has given the least relationship vibes.”
After the boys organised the girls and vice versa, Maya said: “Well, that was very interesting.
“I bet you’re wondering how we’re going to couple you up. Well, you’ve done it yourselves!”
