While most fans of Love Island are more than aware that Gemma Owen is the daughter of ex Liverpool footballer Michael Owen, they might not know that another Islander has links to LFC too.
The series' newest bombshell Jay Younger entered the villa on Tuesday. Jay, an investment analyst in Edinburgh, joined alongside 22-year-old model Remi Lambert.
Like Gemma, Jay has revealed he has a famous relative in the sporting world too.

Asked if he has any claims to fame, Jay 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 FC."
Jay's grandfather is Scottish football star Tommy Younger. He made his debut for Liverpool in August 1956, with his last appearance for the club taking place three years later, reports the Mirror.
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 "quite unassuming" but he vows to be at the centre of the party, adding: "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."
