Love Island fans were stunned to discover a new islander's parents and were quick to label them as 'bombshells'. New contestant Antigoni Buxton entered the villa on Wednesday evening (June 23) and viewers were quick to look her up on social media.
ITV2 fans soon found out that Antigoni has a famous mum and a 'hunky' dad which soon led to comments saying the 26 year old's parents could pass as contestants. Antigoni's mum is celebrity TV chef Tonia Buzton, 54, who presents My Greek Kitchen and My Cypriot Kitchen on the Discovery Channel as well as regularly appearing on Sunday Brunch.
MyLondon reports that the singer-songwriter from North London has already caught the eye of a few islanders. Posting on Instagram, Tonia wished her daughter luck on the hit show and also shared some photos.

She said: "I can not believe that my @antigoni is in the Love Island Villa, she mentioned she would be sunbathing this week - I didn’t think she meant in Mallorca!"
She added: "We are all so excited for you and know you will be amazing! You have always been an island girl, so I know you will fit right in! Hoping you all love and support my girl, I know she will make us proud!"
The proud mum signed off her post by saying: "Tune in to my stories every night where I will be commentating [on] the show, or trying to! #loveisland"
Since the curly-haired beauty entered the villa, Love Island fans have been left doing a double-take after a photo of Antigoni's dad re-surfaced. After last night’s episode, fans immediately searched for Antigoni's social media profiles and were surprised to see photos of her ‘ripped’ father, who she regularly works out with.
In one Instagram picture, the singer uploaded a sweet birthday post for her dad, Paul, and viewers expressed their shock over his age. She sweetly said: "Happy Birthday Daddy! 57 and thriving. You set the bar so high none of these men will ever be good enough.
"You’re so inspirational and kind and you make the lives of everyone around you better - thank you for everything! Love you. Lmao, I still make that exact face in the last slide when I cry." Viewers of the ITV2 dating show even claimed Antigoni's parents, who have been married since 1996, could pass off as Love Island contestants due to their good looks.
Taking to Twitter who person wrote: "‘Damn. Antigoni’s Mum and Dad can pass as Love Island contestants. They got Body ody ody like. Family of Bombshells!’ Another simply added: "Antigoni's dad though, OMG", followed by love-struck emojis.
