Love Island’s juiciest twist has returned as 12 new bombshells gear up to turn heads in Casa Amor!

For the boys, they are in a separate villa as six new girls enter Casa Amor to try and get to know them while the girls have main villa privileges with six new boys making themselves at home.
Among the new bombshells is Martha Rothwell, who admittedly fancies all of the boys!
“I need to meet someone in real life first to see what the vibes are,” she said. “I kind of fancy them all! I think Lorenzo‘s so handsome, and he’s tall. Fitzy‘s handsome too, and it’s nice that he’s a primary school teacher. I quite like the brothers, but I can’t decide between Kavan and Aidan. I like Aidan’s tattoos, but Kavan seems more mature.”
