Love Island returned on Monday, January 16 with a fresh batch of singletons all hoping to be lucky in love. The launch episode saw payroll administrator Anna-May Robey from Swansea, Michelle Keegan body double and Bond star Olivia Hawkins, farmer and TikTok star Will Young, and student and influencer Tanya Manhenga, enter the villa.
They were joined by PE teacher Kai Fagan, makeup artist Lana Jenkins, financial advisor Ron Hall, hair stylist Tanyel Revan, airport security officer Shaq Muhammad, and TV salesman Haris Namani. You can see the Love Island 2023 line-up in full here.
However, at the end of the episode, presenter Maya Jama revealed a new bombshell would be entering the villa after receiving the most votes from the public. Earlier in the week, Love Island bosses asked fans to pick between 25-year-old Ellie Spence, a Business Development Executive at a law firm from Norwich, or Tom Clare, a 23-year-old semi-pro footballer from Barnsley.
