'Love Island': New Girls Tyne-Lexy And Gabrielle To Shake Things Up

"I need to find my man so it’s game on. I have no loyalties."
|

Just when the numbers were finally getting balanced in ‘Love Island’, two new girls have arrived in the villa to shake things up once again.

Following Harley’s elimination earlier this week, there were six couples living harmoniously (kind of) on the island, but that’s all set to change with the arrival of Gabrielle Allen and Tyne-Lexy Clarson.

Gabrielle is a fitness instructor from Liverpool, who describes herself as “all or nothing” when it comes to romance, confessing: “[When I’m dating someone] I put everything into it. They are my life, almost. Which is kind of a blessing but also a curse sometimes.

“I think I’m kind of a nightmare sometimes, probably. Maybe a bit hard work.”

Both girls have said they’re on the show to find love, with student Tyne-Lexy claiming: “I feel like my love life has been stuck in hell so I’ve got nothing left to lose.”

The girls’ arrival is bad news for the ‘Love Island’ ladies already on the show, as to stay on the show, they will have to couple up with the men already in the villa, and it sounds like Tyne-Lexy is taking no prisoners.

She claims: “At the end of the day you only get one opportunity at this. I need to find my man so it’s game on. I have no loyalties, I don’t know them and they don’t know me.”

Gabrielle appears to be taking a slightly different approach, though, insisting: “I hope the girls like me too and we all get on.

“Girls are jealous people in general, and there might be a bit of bitchiness and jealousy in the situation we’re in. But if you handle it head-on, hopefully we won’t be arguing too much.”

See how the rest of the contestants react to the newbies’ arrivals in Sunday’s (11 June) ‘Love Island’, at 9pm on ITV2.

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.

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.

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?

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."

Economics student

"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.
