It turns out that Love Island's Gemma Owen isn't the only contestant to have a famous footballer relative...
Newest bombshell Jay Younger, from Edinburgh, has opened up about growing up with a famous grandfather.
The investment analyst will join the villa in tonight's episode, alongside 22-year-old model Remi Lambert, but he already has something in common with brunette beauty Gemma.
Gemma is the daughter of former Liverpool and England star Michael Owen, and ahead of his villa entry, Jay has opened up about his famous relative too, who played for the same club as Michael himself.
Talking about his claim to fame in The Mirror, he said: "My grandad played for Liverpool and he was captain of Scotland back in the 1950s. He was in the hall of fame for Liverpool and he was in the hall of fame for Hibernian."
Jay's grandfather is Scottish football star Tommy Younger. He made his debut for Liverpool, who Michael also played for, in August 1956, with his last appearance for the club taking place three years later.
The goalkeeper also captained Scotland's 1958 World Cup squad and played for his country on a handful of occasions.
Now this summer, Jay is looking for love and says his friends and family would describe him as laid back but he vows to be at the centre of the party.
He said: "They would probably describe me as quite unassuming but they’d say I am probably the heart of the party.
"I think I am at the point in my life where it would be quite fun to find someone and have fun along the way. And doing it in Mallorca and in the Villa would be a great opportunity, so why not?"
However, he could be causing quite a stir in the villa as he admits he is very "indecisive".
"I think I am going to be a supportive Islander, I think I am going to bring a lot of fun. Hopefully some good laughs along the way and maybe some indecisive decisions," he shared.
However, he thinks he's a great catch, adding: "I think I genuinely have what most females want. 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."
*Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub. Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox.
