Love Island star Will Young has already found himself in hot water on social media and received criticism from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) before the reality show has even started.
ITV has announced its full line-up of new Islanders looking for love as the red-hot reality TV show heads to South Africa for the first series of 2023. Among those heading into the villa for a hot winter include a makeup artist, rising social media star and a rugby hunk ahead of the new winter series starting on January 16.
Maya Jama takes the presenting role after Laura Whitmore stepped down last year, while her husband Iain Stirling, continues his comical narration - a role he has had since it began airing in 2015.
The 10 singletons will enter the plush new luxury £1.2million South African mansion, which overlooks the prison where Nelson Mandela spent his jail term, and is set to spark the raunchiest series yet with a number of X-rated additions.
The 23-year-old farmer, who is known for his farming content on TikTok, has come under fire from social media trolls following his graphic videos.
Will has over 1 million followers on TikTok, where he opens up on his life as a farmer and the realities of some of the more gruesome antics on his land.
For example, the new Love Island star recently posted a video of his helping a prolapsed sheep on his family farm as he helped the pregnant animal with his bare hands in the graphic post.
In another clip, Will is seen helping a sheep in labour after the head and hooves get stuck which drew criticism from animal charity PETA and death threats from trolls.
Sharing the video in question, PETA wrote the caption on their social media channels: "This farmer is a disgusting creep. He's dancing over her body as she gives birth."
The fifth generation farmer responded with a video, saying: "It was just two hooves and a head, pull it out, job done. I'd never have got the camera out for a situation I wasn't in control of."
Will's family farm is estimated to be worth around £1.6 million and has a cottage - called The Dairy - which can be rented out for £600 for three nights on Airbnb.
*Love Island launches on Monday night (January 16) at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
