Winter Love Island 2023 is returning to our screens next week and viewers have been introduced to this year's singles.
ITV recently released the full line-up of new glossy Islanders looking for love (and maybe a PLT deal or two).
Among those heading into the villa for a hot winter include a makeup artist, a TikTok farmer and a rugby hunk ahead of the new winter series starting on January 16.
Replacing Laura Whitmore is none other than Maya Jama who will be hosting the series from now on.
Ahead of the premiere, fans might be curious about what each contestant's social media looks like.
Fans will need to be okay with old pictures as stars and their families will no longer be allowed to update their social media during their stay in the South African villa.
So, who are the stars and what are their handles?

Why Love Island and why now?
"I’ve never found love. I think this is the show that can help me. It’s the best opportunity for me to find the girl and find the right one. I’ve obviously not found the right one myself."

Why Love Island and why now?
"I’m looking for a boyfriend and I think being in a Villa with lots of different people will help me work out who it is I may want."

Why Love Island and why now?
"I’m 27 and I’ve never been in a relationship so I feel like now I’m really ready to settle down and hopefully find the love of my life."

From: London
Occupation: Airport Security Officer
Why Love Island and why now?
"I haven’t had the best luck with previous relationships. So I thought, why not be in the sun and potentially meet the love of my life? Hopefully I do come out with my future wife. The person I hope to marry one day. Hopefully she’s in the Villa."
Tanyel Revan, 26

From: North London
Occupation: Hair Stylist
Why would you say you’re single?
"I’m single because I’m so fussy. When it comes to dating, I’ve had bad experiences but also good experiences, which have moulded me into who I am today."
Will Young, 23
Instagram Handle: @farmer_will_
From: Buckinghamshire
Occupation: Farmer
Why Love Island and why now?
"Having grown up on a farm, it’s been quite difficult juggling relationships and work. Love Island will give me time away from the farm to solely go out and find love. I think I’m at the time of my life where I’m mature enough to go and find a wife."
Anna-May Robey, 20
Instagram Handle: @annamayrobey
From: Swansea
Occupation: Payroll Administrator
Why Love Island and why now?
"I want a boyfriend, I want to find someone who makes me laugh. I’ve been single for quite a while, my mother is bugging me, she's like, ‘You need to find a boyfriend.’ I’m just excited to try something new and I think going on Love Island is a good way to meet someone."
Ron Hall, 25
Instagram Handle: @ronhall__
From: Essex
Occupation: Financial Advisor
Why Love Island and why now?
"I think it’s the best show to find love on. I’m now 25 and I had in my head that I’d be with someone, settled and married by say 27… it’s now coming awfully close to that. It’s now a good opportunity for me to force myself into that intense environment. I don’t use dating apps and texting, it’s forced. Being in there, chatting to someone 24/7 that suits me and my personality."
Kai Fagan, 24
Instagram Handle: @kaifagan_
From: Manchester
Occupation: Science and PE Teacher
Why Love Island and why now?
"When you first meet someone you never normally get to spend that much time with them, so when you’re genuinely looking for a connection, the Villa is the perfect place to do it."
Lana Jenkins, 25
Instagram Handle: @lanajenkinss
From: Luton
Occupation: Make-up Artist
Why Love Island and why now?
"I’ve been single for quite a while, I’m normally a relationship type of person so the fact that I’ve been single for two, almost three, years is quite rare for me. Now’s the right time for me to be doing something a bit different. I’ve not been able to find anyone who suits me so it's good to do something totally different and try to meet someone a different way."

Why Love Island and why now?
"I want to meet someone. It’s good going out and having a laugh but I miss sharing stuff. Life’s too short. These opportunities don’t come around often.'
Ellie Spence

Age: 25
From: Norwich
Occupation: Business Development Executive at a law firm
Why Love Island and why now?
"I’ve been single for three years and the roster is pretty dry, it’s been dry for the last year, I don’t know what happened, it’s just not been a great time for me so I’m ready to find my husband."
