Love Island's Casa Amor boys include Gateshead's Kain Reed as energy consultant goes on ITV show

Kain Reed is setting his sights firmly on Samie as the Gateshead energy consultant goes into Love Island as part of this year's Casa Amor twist.

After lots of speculation on when Casa Amor might finally open its doors for the new series, it was revealed during Friday's episode of the ITV dating show that it was coming this weekend, with the announcement delighting fans who think Love Island could do with a bit of spicing up, after seeing its viewing figures drop below one million.

With cracks appearing in a few of the Love Island relationships, Casa Amor could ruffle my feathers than ever this time round and six boys and six girls will be thrown in with the objective of splitting the couples up.

And one of the lads hoping to find romance over the next week is 21-year-old Kain as the first Geordie of the new series.

Talking about going in Casa Amor, Kain said: "I’m excited because I want to see how strong the relationships actually are between the current couples, and if I can change them. I’m going in there to turn heads! "

He added: "I love a challenge in every aspect, whether it’s over a girl or a sport. I’m a competitive guy and I want to win!"

And, then moving on to talk about which girl he wanted to couple with, Kain, elaborated: "If I had my choice it would be Samie, as soon as I start talking to her I think there's a good chance it could happen.

"I also like Lana, she’s obviously coupled up, but in Casa Amor the other boys aren’t there so we’ll have to see what happens won’t we?!"
