Who is Sophie Piper on Love Island? Rochelle Humes' sister goes into the villa

She was hotly tipped to be in Love Island last summer and now Sophie Piper is in the villa for the first ever winter series of the hit ITV2 show.

Sophie's name was on the list when this year's Love Island lineup was confirmed earlier this week, alongside Lewis Capaldi's ex Paige Turley - the girl who is said to be the inspiration behind the Scottish singer's huge number 1 Someone You Loved.

And, now with new host Laura Whitmore at the helm, as they flirt, date, break up and make up, the new Islanders will be trying to capture the hearts of each other - and the nation - as the viewers decide their favourite couple and declare them the Love Island series 6 winners.

Sunday's new series launch show will see the Love Island girls enter the villa ahead of the first coupling up and then - twins Eve and Jess Gale.

The medical PA is the sister of Saturdays singer turned TV host Rochelle Humes. On the subject of being loyal in the villa, the 21-year-old says "It takes me a while to like someone, but when I do like someone I really like them. So if I met someone and I was still like, oh he’s nice but not 100%, you’d probably be able to see that.

"If someone did come in and I preferred him I’d have to make it clear."

Sophie has over 37,000 followers on Instagram - @sophpiper_ - where you can see her posing up a storm both at home and on luxurious holidays abroad.
