Love Island fans have been lightheartedly teasing Will Young online after stumbling across his sweet TikToks. Will, who is from Aylesbury in Buckinghamshire, entered the South African villa earlier this week, but had already made a name for himself on social media thanks to the farming videos he posts on TikTok.
The TikTok famous farmer boasts over a million followers on the video-sharing app, to which he posts heartwarming videos of himself caring for his beloved flock of sheep. Since he jetted out to South Africa for a reality TV stint, Will's hilarious videos have garnered even more attention, with some Love Island fans wondering whether the ITV2 show is really for him.
Will's time in the Love Island villa comes as he tries to find the one after years of working hard on his family's £1m estate in the Home Counties. Prior to his time on the show, Will described himself as a 'cheeky chappy' who is 'good to be around'. He said: "I'm a wholesome boy who can bring you to the farm and show you his animals and just live one of those happy lives in the cottage."

Now that Will has swapped his boots and coat for swimming trunks, some viewers have suggested that he would be better suited to children's television. In one of the videos the 23-year-old has posted to TikTok, he stands in the middle of a field and animatedly tells his fans that a couple of 'cheeky rams' had got into the field with his pregnant ewes; he then falls over multiple times as he attempts to locate and remove the rams.
Posting the video to Twitter, Izzie Roze wrote: "I'm sorry, but this man should be on CBeebies not Love Island."
Some fans have claimed that Will stands out from your typical Love Island crowd. Will appears to be more interested in 'kindness to animals' and having a 'work ethic', as opposed to 'sh*gging and clubbing', one fan, Zele, noted.
Whilst animals are Will's passion and livelihood, he has made it clear that his future spouse doesn't necessarily need to be an animal lover. He said: "My mum didn't step on the farm for the first 20 years of my mum and dad's marriage!
"What attracts me is energy, if the energy is there, she can do whatever she wants. As long as she respects what I do and my busy times of the year, then that’s all I need. If she loves it, bonus! But it's not a big issue for me."
Unfortunately, Will became single last night after bombshell Tom Clare stole Olivia Hawkins from him. With two more latecomers set to shake up the villa tonight, hopefully Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown will snap up the farmer.
