Love Island fans have made two different observations following Claudia Fogarty's entrance into the villa. The 28-year-old fashion boutique owner has already ruffled some feathers in South Africa after she chose Casey O’Gorman and Tom Clare for her first dates.
Claudia, who is the daughter of former motorcycle racer and I'm A Celebrity 2014 winner Carl Fogarty, quickly got to know the male islanders during Wednesday’s episode (February 8) of the ITV2 dating show after she made her dramatic entrance during the popular heart-rate challenge game in the previous episode.
Arriving dressed in a red angel outfit with elaborate wings, she danced for the boys at the end of the heart-rate challenge and got pulses racing. A number of the islanders were shocked by the results of the challenge, which sees all the islanders perform sultry routines while dressed in revealing outfits in an attempt to raise the heart rates of the opposite sex.

The contestants were surprised when it was revealed that financial adviser Ron Hall, who has recently rekindled his romance with Lana Jenkins, had his heart rate raised the most by new girl Claudia. She responded to the news, saying: "Sorry… I’m very flattered."
Meanwhile, make-up artist Lana’s heart rate was raised the most by Casey, which also raised eyebrows after the pair ended things the day prior. Afterwards, Ron and Lana laughed together as they addressed how neither of their hearts were raised the most by the other, with the financial adviser describing the situation as "outrageous".
Later in the episode, Claudia received a text inviting her to choose two boys to take on a date. After opting for 26-year-old recruitment consultant Casey and semi-pro footballer Tom Clare, who is currently coupled up with Samie Elishi, the three islanders left the villa to enjoy dates under a pergola with a sea view.
During her date with Tom, the semi-professional footballer admitted that he and Casey had worked out she was the daughter of Carl Fogarty. She confirmed they were correct and revealed her father had told her it was "time to get rid of the d******ds now and just settle down and find someone".
But now fans can't help but notice that Claudia's other date, Casey, bared an uncanny resemblance to her dad. @ADADAPPADAN wrote: "Casey's, f****d it all up, 'cause I swear I can see, Carl Fogarty, now!... He's right though, she is his daughter, init... #LoveIslandUK #LoveIsland."
Sharing a picture of Carl and Casey side-by-side @SelinaJodie tweeted: "Casey looks like Carl Fogarty #loveisland." @Shanialogan11 shared: "Is it just me or does CASEY LOOK LIKE CARL FOGARTY#LoveIslandUK #LoveIsland." @chloearmstrong1 added: "Can we all appreciate that Casey looks basically like Carl Fogarty?? #loveisland."
Others, however, were baffled as to how Casey figured out who Claudia was related to so quickly. @JadeBradley7 asked: "Sorry how does Casey remember Carl fogarty from ima celeb almost 10 years ago? Let alone his daughter ??? #loveisland." @king_cadey echoed: "How on earth did casie recognise claudia from insta as ‘the daughter of carl fogarty who won I’m a celeb’?#loveisland."
