While the Love Island villa has only just welcomed Rebecca into the fold, those bombshells just keep on coming, as bosses have confirmed two new arrivals.

A fresh pair of lads will be descending on the Island on Thursday night, after their identities were revealed at the end of Wednesday’s episode.

And confusingly, they’re both called Luke.

First up is Luke Trotman, who is a 22-year-old student and semi-pro footballer from Luton.

He describes himself as “energetic, positive and smiley” and rates himself a “strong eight” out of 10.

He has his eye on Leanne Amaning, Siânnise Fudge, Sophie Piper and Rebecca Gormley and has a surprising claim to fame.

“My mum was on The X Factor in 2007,” he reveals. “She’s called Beverley Trotman and came sixth so I appeared on TV cheering her on in the audience.

“She’s done a few musicals and she’s in the Kingdom Choir now... but she didn’t perform at Meghan and Harry’s wedding.”

Entering the villa with him is Luke Mabbott – a 24-year-old heating engineer from Redcar.

He reckons he’s been “mistaken for Justin Bieber a few times” and has his eye firmly on Paige Turley, who is currently coupled up with Finley Tapp.

We have only just seen the arrival of the first female bombshell Rebecca, who has been causing somewhat of a stir.

She found herself on the wrong side of Shaughna Phillips after declaring her interest in Callum Jones.

Wednesday’s episode saw her make a move on both Finley and Connagh, but what will the Lukes’ arrival mean for the group?

Love Island continues on Thursday at 9pm on ITV2.
