Love Island 2023 contestants: I'm a Celebrity's Owen Warner's ex-girlfriend Lana Jenkins is entering the winter series

The new series of Winter Love Island will see singletons head into the villa hoping to find love, you can read everything you need to know about the series here, and one has dated in the spotlight before. Lana Jenkins, who is entering the villa, dated 2022 I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! runner-up Owen Warner.

After Owen's very public split from fellow Hollyoaks star Stephanie Davies, he had a brief romance with Lana in 2020. At the time, Lana confirmed their romance by sharing a now-deleted loved-up post of them together in June 2020.

Owen is not Lana's only link to fame as according to reports Lana and Owen found love after being introduced through mutual friends as she was good friends with many of the Hollyoaks cast. Their whirlwind romance lasted a couple of months and Lana is yet to mention the relationship in any of her promotion videos for Love Island.

Instead, she shared that she appeared in an episode of the TV show Benidorm when she was six years old and living in Spain. She also added that her job as a makeup artist has its fair share of celeb encounters too.

Lana is not the only islander with a claim to fame as TikTok star Will Young is also entering the villa. Will currently has 1.1 million followers on TikTok and is loved for his farming videos with his adorable sheep.

First-look pictures have also been revealed of the new villa which will be used for Winter Love Island. The series is being filmed in South Africa and the new villa looks very glam. There are three swimming pools, the famous fire pit, the huge shared bedroom, the dressing room and the day beds where loyal islanders may choose to stay the night during Casa Amor.
