Love Island has confirmed that two new male contestants will enter the villa during Thursday night's episode.

Referred to as the 'Bombshells', the boys will arrive 24 hours after a brutal twist saw the first female contestant dumped from the show.

First up is Liam Reardon, a 21-year-old bricklayer from Wales who admits that he has been "struggling" to find a girlfriend lately.

"If I'm in competition for a female, I want to try my best, but I won't go too far out of my way," he says. "If she liked you that much she wouldn't have to make a choice."

The second addition is 23-year-old Chuggs Wallis, a Surrey boy who runs his own business specialising in customised hats.

Explaining why he applied to be on the show, he says: "I just feel like it's now or never. I'm only 23 but I'm scared of ageing. Especially as half of my last year of uni was taken away and we had so many fun plans.

"With COVID and the pandemic, I feel like I've missed a year of my youth, so I'm really gagging to get it all back – make the most of it."

Love Island continues Thursday at 9pm on ITV2.
