Love Island 2023 bombshell Whitney Adebayo's age and job as star makes late arrival

Love Island 2023 has introduced the second bombshell of the summer series. Whitney Adebayo is set to enter the villa during the episode that airs on Wednesday, June 7, and will head on a date with newly single André Furtado.

Whitney's arrival comes hot on the heels of Zachariah Noble, who entered the villa late on launch night and then decided to couple up with Catherine Agbaje, leaving André single and vulnerable. However, in scenes set to air tonight, André recieves a text that reads: "Whitney is waiting for you at the beach for a champagne date! Please get ready to leave the Villa. #BigDayForDre #BaeWatch."

The new bombshell, who says her friends would call her "the life of the party" but her mum would describe her as stubborn, is looking for someone who has a "good sense of humour and emotional depth" in the famous villa. Asked what gives her the ick, Whitney said: "Guys that bite their nails, I have a thing about nice hands. I don’t like guys in skinny jeans either."

Whitney is an entrepreneur from London. Asked why she's joined Love Island, Whitney replied: "Why not? I want to have fun and have a lit summer."

On what she'll bring to the villa, Whitney said: "Good vibes, I can be really silly and funny but I can also get deep. It depends on the person and the situation but I am a very adaptable person, I know how to read the room."

She added: "Why would you not want to date me? I've got triple B’s - bum, boobs and brains."

How old is Whitney Adebayo?

Whitney is 25 years old. On why she's single, the bombshell said: "I’m too much to handle sometimes, maybe people are intimidated by me. I know what I want and I’m very picky."

Asked whether she falls in love quickly, Whitney responded: "Real love, no. I can fall in lust but I don’t fall in love quickly. My big thing is trust, I’ve got to trust you fully before I can give you my heart. I won’t give you my heart for free, you've got to earn it."

Is Whitney Adebayo on Instagram?

Yes, you can find Whitney on Instagram here. However, her profile will remain dormant while he is in the villa. Usually, family members and friends take over the contestants' accounts while they are on the show, but the broadcaster has confirmed that nothing will be published on the Islanders' behalf this year. The change was implemented for the winter series part of Love Island's duty of care measures and aims to protect both the islanders and their families from the adverse effects of social media.

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITX. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
