Love Island fans in disbelief as they discover Zachariah's famous I'm A Celeb sibling

Love Island contestant Zachariah Noble has a very famous sibling - but he has yet to let his fellow islanders know about the celebrity in his family.

Basketball player Zach, 25, became the very first bombshell to join the 2023 summer Love Island line-up with all the girls turning their heads for the South-East London hunk.

Zach, who is a personal trainer as well as a shooting guard who most recently played for Worcester Wolves in British Basketball, had all eyes on Dublin-born babe Catherine when entering the villa.

But little does Catherine know who Zach's big sister is.

Cheyenne Davide, better known as Snoochie Shy, posted a gushing social media tribute to her 'little brother' Zach on Instagram and Twitter after he made his villa debut - leaving Love Island fans in disbelief.

Snoochie Shy, who is radio presenter, television presenter and model, shared her pride that her younger brother was making his mark on reality TV as she shared a number of sweet snaps with her sibling.

Since 2018, Snoochie has presented her own show on BBC Radio 1Xtra and back in 2021, she was a contestant on the twenty-first series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!.

Her little brother, Zachariah, wanted to try something different, so signed up for the ITV2 dating show, saying: "I always say, ‘You only grow as a person when you take yourself out of your comfort zone’ and I think it’s something that’s so far out of my comfort zone, I’d be silly not to give it a go.

"Being 25, I’m at a crossroads where I’ve been having fun, but I also want to have the peace and harmony that comes from being with the right woman."

Zach is hoping to find the woman of his dreams in the villa.

"The most important things are that someone is genuine and they also have good banter," he said about his future girlfriend.

In terms of why he's still single, he added: "I’m not going to be young forever and it would be nice to meet someone and get some good holiday pictures whilst I’m still looking half decent."
