Michela
Sydney girl Michela loves to work hard and play hard, a credo that’s seen her party with the likes of Drake and J Cole in her past. Michela is of European and South African heritage, which will bring some more diversity into the villa.
Although she’s been plagued with horrendous dating experiences in the past, this 25-year-old is ready to settle down, and has a family on her mind for the future.
Tayla
Hailing from the Gold Coast, Tayla sounds like quite the wild child.
Getting kicked out of the US musical festival, Coachella, for having sex in a portaloo, Tayla then nearly got married in Las Vegas a few days later. These days, she’s working as a customer service representative on the GC, where she apparently struggles to find men who aren’t arrogant and full of themselves.
Tayla’s dealbreakers are pale men (or those without a tan), and the name Matt! Luckily for Tay Tay, there’s no current Matts in the villa. Best of luck Tayla!
Aisha
Nursing student Aisha is after someone tall, dark, and handsome.
The Perth-based local describes herself as passionate, someone who likes to stir up a bit of drama, but she also admits to being terrible at keeping secrets.
Brianna
Brisbane girl Brianna will be undoubtedly turning heads within the villa, given the current boys’ love of blondes. The bombshell already has quite the following, with 34.9k Instagram followers, who will be super excited to see her stirring things up in the Villa.
Ruby
Another blonde! Jess and Lexy will certainly be nervous, given their partner’s preference for blondes. We’re picking Ruby (and Brianna) as the most likely to steal hearts, with their hair colour acting as a natural advantage.
Audrey
Model Audrey Kano is also walking in as part of the Casa Amor squad. While info on Audrey is still limited – we expect to learn more tonight – there’s no denying she’s absolutely gorgeous and (hopefully!) very likely to catch some eyes in the villa.
THE BOYS
Ben
‘Hot tradie’ Ben is heading into the Villa from Melbourne, where he plays – apparently quite well – for Port Melbourne in the Victorian Football League. And if the girls’ response to AFL player Mitch was anything to go by, he’ll be stealing someone’s girl.
Brent
Recruitment consultant Brent is one to watch as he enters the villa. He’s the younger brother of infamous Grant Crapp, who won the first season of Love Island Australia opposite Tayla Damir, whom he then brutally dumped for his girlfriend back home. Oops.
Here’s hoping Brent will have a bit more luck in the Villa than his older brother did.
Shayne
Fashionista Shayne came to Australia from Zimbabwe at the age of 10. The Melbourne-based boy now has two fashion brands – Rimagind and Catalyst and is apparently well-established in the fashion industry. With models Aaron and Audrey also appearing on the show, we assume they’ll have a lot to discuss.
Noah
Perth-based boy Noah is also apparently into AFL, so will surely turn a few heads when he meets the existing girls, who love a muscly, sporty man. Not too much other information has been shared about Noah just yet, but he’s hot. He’ll fit in.
Sadee
Sadee plays for the Penrith Panthers in their Under 20s squad. It was also revealed by So Dramatic that he is studying a Bachelor of Business, Property and Sports Management, and is quite active on TiK ToK, where he has a following of 120k! We assume he'll fit right in at the Love Island Villa.
