So we have our Love Island line up – but there’s a big secret in store

Love Island is already taking up 70 per cent of the space in our brains and it hasn't even started yet.

After weeks of build-up, this year's series will kick off on Monday. It will see 12 islanders land in a villa in Mallorca for a summer of lying by the pool, grafting with as many people as possible and being filmed every hour of the day. But if you thought that the 12 contestants who were announced on Monday were it, think again. It's reported that ITV already has a whole other bunch of "super-hot" Islanders ready to go. Dubbed the 'bombshell arrivals', they're waiting in the wings and will be dropped into the house when producers want to shake things up.

"The current line up isn’t going to stay the same for long – and the newbies are super-hot,' a show source told The Sun. “They are being called ‘bombshell arrivals’ and viewers will see why when they see them. “They are currently holed up in a secret location and will make their appearances as the series goes on. “It’s going to make amazing TV and it’ll be a real twist for those who start the show.”

The news comes after Caroline Flack today gave a sneak peek of the Love Island house on Instagram. With days to go, the host shared a few snippets of the revamped villa on her story. Love Island returns 3 June at 9pm on Virgin Media Two.
