Three new Love Island bombshells are heading into the villa - and one has a link to Amber Gill

Love Island will welcomed three new bombshells following Joanna Chimonides’ shock exit.

In tonight’s episode the Islanders will have to open their doors to new hopefuls who will also be on the hunt for love – and fame.

India Reynolds’ arrival into the villa was reported before last night’s episode, which saw Joanna dumped from the show leaving Michael Griffiths single. The islander promised to stay loyal to Joanna but chose not to leave the villa with her, instead deciding to "enjoy" the rest of his time on the show.

However, his head may be turned as it has now been confirmed that India - who has expressed interest in Michael already - will be walking into the Marjocan compound with Harley Brash and Greg O’Shea by her side.

The trio are expected to add some spice to the ITV2 dating show, especially with the latest dramatic love triangles fizzling out.

Love Island First Look: Ovie and Chris go on dates with the new girls

Harley Brash

(ITV)

20-year-old Harley from Newcastle works as an estate agent and has major connections to the show too, citing past contestant Ellie Brown as her best friend.

She said: ‘I know Zara McDermott through Ellie too. I also know Adam Collard well, he’s such a lovely boy. We went for dinner and were pictured and it was suggested we were dating but we’re just friends.’

Harley also knows Amber too, saying: ‘I see her on a night out but I don’t know her too well so it’ll be good to see her in the Villa.’

Harley admitted to having her eye on Ovie Soko – who is coupled up with Amber, but as friends – and is expected to sweep the basketball player off his feet.

‘I think Ovie is absolutely beautiful, he is stunning so he is basically my perfect man,’ she confessed. ‘I also think Anton [Danyluk] comes across really funny so I’d be open to getting to know him.

‘I really fancy Michael but I think he is a bit misunderstood. He’s lovely to look at though, I could definitely just look at him!’

Greg O’Shea

(ITV)

Irishman Greg O’Shea, 24, could be about to compete with Curtis Pritchard for fellow Irish contestant Maura Higgins.

The professional rugby player from Limerick says his ideal woman is someone who is ‘confident in herself, not cocky but knows her worth.’

He added: ‘I need to get in the villa and see what the story is and who is good craic! I’d say me and Maura will hit it off straight away, being two Irish people and she’s hilarious.

‘She’s very naturally funny and she’s gorgeous as well so you never know.’

India Reynolds

(ITV)

India Reynolds has also got her eye on Ovie and Michael, admitting that her perfect guy is ‘tall, muscly, handsome and hilarious.’

The 28-year-old has been single for a year and is sure that her best qualities are that she’s kind, caring and chatty.

‘I will give myself a 7 out of 10 and my favourite feature is my eyes or hair,’ she said.

The hopeful added: ‘I want to have a good time and I don’t like falling out with people so hopefully I can be friends with the girls and gorgeous Ovie will still be single for me.’

Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2.
