Ever since we clapped eyes on the new ‘Love Island’ contestants, we have been busy playing Cilla Black trying to match them up, and thinking about who would make the best couples. 

Well, now we don’t have to wonder any more, as we finally have five fully-fledged pairs! Although quite how long they will actually stay together remains to be seen...

The brand new series of the ITV2 reality show kicked off on Monday (5 June) night, and it wasn’t long before they were being officially ‘coupled up’. 

After the girls were introduced to fans, it was then up to the boys to decide which girl they wanted to be in a couple with. 

Dancer Amber Davies was paired up with groundsworker Harley Judge, while former Blazin’ Squad member Marcel Somerville, ended up with Olivia Attwood, having originally picked Amber.

Explosive ordinance disposal worker Camilla Thurlow (who is rumoured to have dated Prince Harry previously), coupled up with oil rig worker Sam Gowland.

Chloe Crowhurst, who was in a relationship with TOWIE’s Jon Clark prior to entering the villa (and she supposedly forgot to break up with him, so he says) paired up with Essex hairdresser Kem Cetinay

It turned out the pair actually knew each other, as Chloe had previously dated Kem’s best friend - not that it stopped him from going there.

Last but not least, student Montana Brown was paired with careers adviser Dominic Lever - but this being ‘Love Island’, there was a twist.

It was then revealed there was actually more female Islanders than male, with Jessica Shears making a late entrance into the villa. She was then given 24 hours to decide which boy she wanted to couple up with.

She eventually pinched Dominic, leaving Montana without a partner. But as they start to get to know each other, we suspect things could all change very soon...

Meanwhile, Montana and Jessica’s time on the show together got off to an awkward start, when they both realised they had both previously dated the same boy, at the same time.  

‘Love Island’ continues on Tuesday at 9pm on ITV2.

Job?
Motorsport Grid Girl

She says:
"I’ve been told I’m funny. I’ve got quite an immature sense of humour, and I can be quite naughty.

"I try not to take any rubbish from anyone so I think boys end up saying ‘she’s a player’ because they’ve not had their way with me."

Have you seen her before?
Olivia says she's modelled for some fashion brands with "big followings" in the past.

Job?
Music industry executive

He says:
"Girls love me... I've always got girls around me. I've always got a girl on the scene. I'm not a player but I do like to be single.

"I stay single because I don't want to break hearts but I do end up breaking them by mistake sometimes. It's quite hard."

Have you seen him before?
Marcel was once a member of Blazin' Squad, which he describes as "the best days" of his life.

Age?
27

Job?
Explosive ordnance disposal (!!)

She says:
"I want to put my personal life first, for the first time in a long time, and give myself the opportunity to meet someone.

"['Love Island'] will also force me to break down some of the barriers that I have built up doing the work that I do. I can be a bit cold, and come across that way, but that’s because I’m quite independent and strong."

Have you seen her before?
Perhaps if you're a lacrosse fan - Camilla once competed in the junior world championships. However, back in the summer of 2014 she was also linked with Prince Harry after the two reportedly shared a snog at an event.

Job?
Groundsworker

He says:
"People would say [my love life is] non-existent and I’m married to the gym. I’ve not been out for ages, I’ve been having some me time.

"The show is an opportunity to put myself out there, let loose and get my mojo back."

Job?
Executive assistant

She says:
"Boys in Essex - come on! They're not great. I want to be loved up but they're just pigs. I'm ready and willing to meet someone nice. A lot of them just want about ten girlfriends at a time.

"Come on - you can't go out with ten girls at once! That's not on."

Job?
Hairdresser

He says:
"I wear my heart on my sleeve. I'm all in or out, nothing in between. I think I'm enjoyable to be with. I fall for girls very easily. It's been my downfall because I make it so obvious when I like a girl. I might get a bit clingy.

"I'm not normal and I think the people who make 'Love Island' know that, so I'm hoping they'll have found a girl who's not normal, who'll be a good match for me."

Have you seen him before?
As a hairdresser to the stars, he's worked with the boys from 'TOWIE', Spencer Matthews and Calum Best, among others.

"I'm genuinely looking for love, I'm not going on it for any other reason. I want to find someone to settle down with.

"My friends are married and settling down with kids. I've looked everywhere and can't find him!"

Have you seen her before?
In addition to being a glamour model, Jessica says she's been chatted up by celebs in the past, joking: "Mostly reality stars - they're the same ones that message everybody!"

Job?
Careers advisor

He says:
"I'm definitely not modest! They call me vain, and I do love myself a bit. I play on it, though. I'll go, 'I'm good-looking me, aren't I? Aren't you lucky to be with me?’

"I'm not just a pretty face! I've got the chat as well."

Job?
Dancer

She says:
"I think I’m very down to earth. I have been brought up so well. I don’t cause trouble for no reason. I’m not fake, I’m very real and that’s what all my friends like about me.

"I’m a bit of a dating queen. I love to date. The key thing for me is finding humour. We need to have a good laugh, the chemistry will happen if we’re laughing."

Have you seen her before?
Amber claims to have slept with a "big name" but won't disclose her, commenting: "Girls don't kiss and tell!"

Job?
Oil rig worker

He says:
"I'm a serial dater. My attention span's not that good so to be honest, I generally only manage one date with a girl, or two at a push. I get bored easily.

"And if I decide I'm not interested, I just ignore their texts. I know that's a bit mean. I like a bit of a chase, you see. I do alright with girls. If I want it, I get it."

Job?
Economics student

She says:
"I think people would probably call me quite posh! I will admit I've been brought up well and I've been really lucky to go a private school. I'm lucky to have had good opportunities in my life.

"I want to meet someone who will broaden my horizons a little bit... I'm not really exposed to people from all over the UK. I don't go to raves that much so I don't really meet anyone from outside Hertfordshire!"

Have you seen her before?
In the past, she's dated both rugby players and pro footballers.
