Here’s the full lineup for this year’s Love Island including one Irish participant

JOE

Love Island contestants

Here are all the faces that Love Island fans will be seeing.

The first 12 Islanders for the fifth season of Love Island have just been revealed and fans of the show won’t have long to wait because it’s back on 3 June.

Virgin Media Two have released images of the six guys and six girls who will be entering the Majorcan villa for the summer.

As always, the Islanders will have to couple up to secure their place in the villa, fighting for the final cash prize that everyone has their eyes on.

This year, their loyalties will be tested with plenty of surprises, bombshell arrivals and unexpected twists because nothing in the villa ever runs smoothly.

Prepare for drama, here are the new Islanders…

Yewande Bibla

Yewande is a 23-year-old scientist from Dublin. She considers herself as very loyal and would never steal a man who is coupled up with another girl. She hopes to find someone who is athletic and full of banter in the villa. Arrogance is her turn off.

Lucie Donlan

Lucie is a 21-year-old surfer from Newquay. Lucie finds that she gets on better with guys than girls because they’re less drama. She also doesn’t really think there’s such thing as girl code and so, we expect a lot of drama from this one.

Lucie’s last flame was last year’s Islander Charlie Frederick.

Amber Gill

From Newcastle, Amber is a 21-year-old beauty therapist.

Amber is looking for a tall, Tom Hardy lookalike and considers her love life right now as non-existent. She’s hoping that changes once she steps into the vila.

Amy Hart

Amy who hails from Sussex is a 26-year-old air hostess and cabin crew manager.

Amy isn’t looking for a time waster and hopes to find true romance and someone she can travel the world with.

Anna Vakili

Anna is from London and is a 28-year-old pharmacist.

Anna considers herself a drama queen who easily overacts in situations. The 28-year-old also admitted that she’d never fight for a guy but once they like her, she will go far to make them happy.

Anton Danyluk

From Airdrie, this 24-year-old Scottish gym owner is one of the first six guys to enter the villa.

Anton is looking for a girl who’s into the gym because it’s his passion. Anton has never been loyal in any of his relationships and says he has a severe wandering eye.

Tommy Fury

Tomy is a boxer from Manchester and he’s 20-years-old.

Tommy’s dream girl is Ariana Grande and in the villa he will go to “the moon and back” to find love and get the girl he wants. Tommy is also the younger brother to professional boxer, Tyson Fury.

Joe Garratt

Joe is 22-years-old and the owner of his own catering company in London.

Joe can’t stand stuck up girls and hopes to find someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously. The 22-year-old also admitted that he’d never cheat on a girl and only has eyes for one person at a time.

Michael Griffiths

27-year-old firefighter from Liverpool.

Michael would rate his looks 10/10 and hopes to find a girl who can match his energetic personality with a nice bum.

Sherif Lanre

A chef and semi-pro rugby player, this Londoner has achieved a lot for a 20-year-old.

Sherif would consider himself the joker in the group and hopes to not have a wandering eye on the show.

Callum Macleod

Callum is a 28-year-old aircraft engineer from South Wales.

Callum cannot stand cheating and is big on bro code. He thinks no matter how long you know another guy, he will always be honest and upfront first.

Curtis Pritchard

And lastly, the final Islander is Curtis Pritchard. Curtis might be a familiar face to many of you as he has starred on Dancing With The Stars Ireland.

Curtis is 23-years-old and from Shropshire. He’s a professional dancer and believes his dating life so far has been quite sheltered compared to many. He has no real type when it comes to girls and believes love is blind. He also added that he’ll only know what he wants when he sees it.

And that’s it!

Love Island 2019 returns to Virgin Media Two this June 3 at 9pm.
