Love Island contestants will be faced with a new twist when they enter the villa for the first episode of the new series tonight as the boys and girls will arrive at the same time, in a mix-up to kick off the new show.
In the past, only one gender has entered the villa, and then contestants of the opposite sex have entered one at a time to be coupled up at the iconic firepit with ITV host Maya Jama overseeing the first batch of couples.
Beautician Ruchee Gurung, 24, from Sutton, Surrey and Jess Harding, 22, an aesthetics practitioner from London, will be the first islanders to make their entrance and will get a surprise when they are joined by the first boy in the Spanish villa.
