Love Island fans puzzled by Luca's tattoos - as Winston Churchill one branded 'red flag'

We all know we’re set for the summer when Love Island is back on our screens.

The show returned this week and many fans are already invested, picking favourites and discussing all the details on social media.

And there's one topic, in particular, that's got many people talking - Luca's tattoos.

Luca Bish, a fishmonger from Rottingdean entered the villa and soon coupled up with Paige Thorne, but from the first moment he appeared on screen, viewers have had questions about the numerous inkings that cover his chest and arms.

Taking to Twitter, fans shared their puzzlement over what some of the tattoos could mean - with the one of Winston Churchill on the 23-year-old's arm causing a particular stir.

It's thought he also has tattoos of Muhammad Ali, a butterfly, a scorpion and the numbers 1995.

One person wrote: "I don't think we're talking enough about the fact that Luca from Love Island has Winston Churchill tattoed on his forearm."

The tweet went viral, being liked over 16,000 times and garnering over 1,200 retweets.

Another posted: "Luca went to the tattoo shop and they asked what tattoo does he want and he said yes."

Someone else asked: “How the f**k do you go from Muhammad Ali to Winston Churchill on one arm?”

A fourth person thought the tattoos were a "red flag", saying: "I didn’t notice this. Now I know I have bad taste in men, confirmed."

Others were baffled by the 1995 inking above Luca's belly button as it clearly wasn't the year he was born, due to his age - but it turns out it's actually his sister's year of birth, so a very touching tribute.

And a few thought viewers should just leave him alone, with a different user adding: "Not all tattoos need a lot of thought of meaning behind them, let people live."
