Love Island Scots bombshell Jay Younger plans to impress islanders with super strength

Love Island's latest bombshell is sure to cause a stir in the villa.

After Italian stallion Davide impressed with his mighty show of strength when he worked out with Ekin Sue on his shoulders last week, it looks like he's now got a bit of competition in the shape of Edinburgh hunk Jay Younger.

Jay, 28, made his shock entrance at the end of last night's episode when two new bombshells were teased to viewers after Afia was booted from the villa in the first dumping of the series.

And it won't be long before the fitness fanatic, who was an award-winning athlete when he was younger, catches someone's attention, judging by his Herculean efforts in the gym before he went on the ITV2 reality dating show.

Ahead of his entrance, Jay admitted he's no wallflower.

He said: “I think I genuinely have what most females want.”

Jay is an investment analyst for Aubrey Capital Management and studied economics and finance at Heriot-Watt University.

The Scot, from Musselburgh, who went to Edinburgh’s Merchiston, reckoned he has it all and could really stir it up with the girls already in the villa who have coupled up.

He added: “I’ve got a good job, I think I am a good looking lad and I have a lot of fun so I feel like I could add a lot of value to their lives if they add a lot of value to mine.”

He also has a claim to fame, his grandfather Tommy Younger was a former Scotland football captain and also played for Liverpool.

The goalie, who passed away in 1984 aged 53, played for Liverpool in the 50s, played 24 times for Scotland between 1955-58 captaining the national side for four games in 1958.
