Guys, Love Island is really in its prime right now, and there's a certain feeling in the air. England are through to the last 32 in the World Cup, Casa Amor 2026 is officially underway, and 12 new bombshells have just landed in the Love Island villa.

Things kicked off in Mallorca on the 1st June 2026, and it's been a season full of love triangles, dumpings, untimely exists and more.

If you're looking for an insight into who's cracking on with who in the villa, we've got *all* the details you need on this year's cast, from their ages, Instagram handles, backgrounds and more. Also, get to know the 12 new bombshells who have joined the Love Island villa for Casa Amor: 6 men and 6 women.

Describe your 'type on paper': Personality genuinely means more to me than looks. Looks only get you so far, a cracking personality can take you to the top. Sharing the same vibes and banter. Sharing the same interests is quite big for me, I like to go to Ibiza quite often, and I’d love to do that with a girlfriend.

How do you plan to handle the competition? I think competition brings out the best in everyone because naturally you have to perform.

What kind of person are you hoping doesn’t walk through the villa door? Definitely a people pleaser. Someone who’s constantly looking for attention or trying too hard to be the centre of it. I don’t like people who are rude for no reason either. And I can’t stand unnecessary lies, even the small ones. If you’ve done something, just be honest about it. I’d rather hear the truth, even if it’s harsh. At least then you know where you stand.

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal? A bit of both, if I’m honest. Let’s not pretend that drama isn’t part of the experience. Everyone enjoys a bit of drama, and it definitely keeps things interesting.

Describe your 'type on paper': Tall, charismatic, muscly, funny, ambitious and loyal.

What kind of person are you hoping doesn’t walk through the villa door? I don’t like nonchalant people, I am a very expressive person so I don’t think we’d work at all. I’m looking for a boy who’s similar to me, basically.

How do you plan to handle the competition?I don’t really see it as competition. I just think what’s meant for me will be for me. Strategy-wise, I think I’m a really good flirt. I’m confident in myself. Even if a 10/10 model walks in, she’s not going to have my personality. Nobody has my personality, and that’s what makes me stand out.

What’s your bombshell strategy? I’m going to speak to all of the boys. There are a couple I’ve got my eye on, but personality is a huge thing for me. I need to bounce off someone, vibe with them, and they need to be a bit weird because I’m a bit weird too.

Describe your 'type on paper': Just a genuinely nice girl. I’ve met all sorts of people, so my head could definitely be turned in different directions. Personality matters a lot to me too.

What kind of person are you hoping doesn’t walk through the villa door? I don’t like fake people or bad attitudes. I’m really close with my family, so I appreciate someone who values that too. Obviously everyone has different family situations, but I like people who are respectful, kind, and just generally nice to be around. I wouldn’t want someone coming in trying to bring people down or create negativity for no reason.

Describe your 'type on paper': I’d say petite, natural features and somebody that looks after themselves. Personality wise, I’d like someone that doesn’t take themselves too seriously and has some type of ambition.

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal? I’m definitely here for love. I’ve been single for a long time, it’s been four years. I definitely want to settle down and find somebody. But with love, there’s always going to be some drama. I’m not going to say I’m not here for it, because I feel like you’ve got to be open to the drama if you’re looking for love, so a bit of both for sure! Bring it on.

What’s your bombshell strategy? At the end of the day, I’ve got to do what I want to do, and we’re all there for our own reasons. I don’t have a strategy because I feel like in a place like that, things can change so quickly. You can have a plan, and then that person isn’t even there anymore. I don’t think you can really plan for it.

What kind of person are you hoping doesn’t walk through the villa door? Someone who’s too cocky, full of themselves, and fancies themselves too much. Bad manners as well, like I hate it when people are rude to waiters. I hate it when men wear flip-flops, so no men in flip-flops. I think men should only wear sandals. Oh and someone with bad personal hygiene.

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal? Finding love is definitely the goal. But if there’s a little bit of drama along the way, ideally I’d stay on the sidelines. But if I need to get involved, I will.

Describe your 'type on paper': Physically, I don’t really have a strict type, but they definitely need to be tall, handsome, and have a great smile. I’m such a sucker for a good smile.

What kind of person are you hoping doesn’t walk through the villa door? I like someone who is a little bit cocky but in a cheeky way, not really cocky in that they’re full of themselves - speaks about themselves all the time and is self-absorbed. I don’t really like when people talk about having loads of money - flashy. Someone who is not down to earth.

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal? Obviously the main goal is to find love. I wouldn’t say I’m here for the drama, however I definitely can’t hide how I am feeling. If I think something, whether that be about someone else's drama or my own drama or if I feel a certain way, best believe that is getting known. I’m very opinionated but I’m not necessarily here for the drama.

Describe your type on paper: I wouldn’t say I have a strict type, to be honest. Maybe brunettes but it’s more about personality. I like someone who’s driven, confident, and looks after themselves, whether that’s through the gym or just taking care of themselves in general.

How do you plan to handle the competition? I don’t really see it as competition, to be honest. The only real competition might be my brother if he’s in there before me.

What if you both liked the same girl? That’s a tricky one. On the outside, you’d probably just leave it, but there you can’t really walk away. You’re all in the same environment, so it would be interesting to see how that plays out.

Describe your 'type on paper': Tanned brunettes, quite minimalist looking, not much make up, dresses really well, funny, charismatic, all of that stuff.

Describe your 'type on paper': Someone who's funny. I bounce off people who are funny, so I think that's very important to me. I love an accent - anyone who's got an accent - could be Irish, a Manchester accent, I love it. Also tall. I’m really, really small, but I love someone who's just really tall next to me, and can look after me, that kind of thing.

His type on paper: "That’s so hard. I like shorter girls, I’m really big on hair, good teeth and a nice smile. I prefer Northerners because they’ve got better crack. That’s just a fact. I haven’t really got a type, I honestly just go on energy, vibes and if you find my jokes funny."

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal?: "I’m not here for the drama and I want to find love, however the drama could be funny. I love the ‘watching with a telescope, ooh what’s going on, sip the tea’ kind of vibe. I’m not here for the drama…but I’m here for the drama."

Her type on paper: "Objectively hot, really charismatic, and confident."

What’s your relationship strategy, go straight for the goal or play it safe at the back?: "Straight for the goal. Life’s too short to play it safe, that’s boring. You don’t go on Love Island to play it safe."

His type on paper: "I wouldn’t say I have a strict type on paper. Personality is the most important thing for me. Obviously, I know if I find someone physically attractive but if we’re not connecting, laughing, and having a good time, it just wouldn’t work for me. I like someone who’s fun, can take a joke and doesn’t take themselves too seriously. If we’re constantly laughing and getting on, that’s what matters most."

How do you plan to handle the competition?: "I don’t really see it as competition. If someone chooses someone else over me, then it just wasn’t meant to be. I think everything happens for a reason, so I just stay in my own lane and let things play out."

Her type on paper: "I like tall, Italian looking. Dark hair normally, even though I always end up with blondes! Light eyes but again, I’m not too fussy. I like someone who is quite big as in a good cuddler, good muscles kind of way. In a personality, I like someone funny, I think funny goes such a long way. I like someone who is smart who can teach me things. I like book smart but even if they're not book smart I like someone who is like actually teaching me stuff. Someone who does everything for me but I can’t take the piss."

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal? "I’m not overly into drama to be fair, I’m such a chilled person. I do like watching it but I don’t want to be a part of it. I’m really looking for love, I want a boyfriend again. I want to find someone who is actually the love of my life, like obsessed with me kind of thing. I think I’m missing someone who is obsessed with me!"

His type on paper: "My type on paper would be someone classy, mature, blonde, fun, and someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously. I like people who can let their hair down and enjoy themselves."

What’s your relationship strategy, go straight for the goal or play it safe at the back?: "Definitely go straight for the goal. I always go after what I want. Life’s too short for games, and I’m very honest about how I feel. When I like someone, I’m the least nonchalant person ever. There’s no messing around."

Her type on paper: "Tall, dark and handsome! A quietly confident man with nice teeth. Someone that is attentive, someone that is a listener and a doer. You can’t just be listening and not doing! Someone that puts actions behind words and is patient."

How do you plan to handle the competition?: "I’ll put myself in the position to be seen by the guys so they know I’m interested, but I’m not gonna beg it. I’ll be in the mix, 100%, I’m not watching in the back."

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal? I’m here for love but also here for drama. I won’t be getting involved in it, I might be mixing it!

Her type on paper: Simple… tall, dark and handsome. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it. It’s a classic for a reason. Nice teeth, nice tattoos, partial to a blonde as well. Pretty face. Look like you’re going to break my heart but like, please don’t.

What’s your relationship strategy, go straight for the goal or play it safe at the back? You can’t go in too keen but you’ve got to make them know you’re interested. But, I also like someone that chases me. They’ve got to come up and meet me at the halfway line. But I will go to the goal if I need to. Offside? Who knows? I guess we’ll see.

His type on paper: I don’t have a type, if you’re pretty. If you look at my history of dating, all girls have been different! I like the way a woman carries herself, her mannerisms. I like that.

Are you here for the drama, or is finding love your only goal? I like a bit of both! Best case scenario I’m walking out with someone I really connect with. My first girlfriend. But I don’t mind a bit of drama, it’s fun! As long as no one is getting hurt.

Her type on paper: "Tall, fair, muscles, nice teeth, pretty boy. I’m more into personality though. They’ve got to make me laugh, be charming, and have good manners."

How does she plan to handle the competition?: "Oh, there’s no competition. Never has been, never will be. I’ll go in there and I’ll definitely get what I want."

His type on paper: "Traditionally blonde, but not always. I quite like a posh girl. One feature I look at is a girl’s arms, I don’t know why. It’s really strange! Imagine like a Jessica Alba or an Angelina Jolie kind of arm and neck, I find that very elegant. Very niche, I know!"

Is he on Love Island for love or drama? "I think drama is fun! As long as no one is crying, all is fair in love and war. It’ll be interesting to see what unfolds…"

Her type on paper: "Definitely someone that’s tall, I’m tall myself so I like to feel small. I like a little bit of a buffer, a bigger guy. The most important thing for me is personality. I just want someone that will make me laugh. I want to get along with someone."

What's her relationship strategy?: "If I have my eyes set on someone, obviously I’m going to pursue them. But if they’re not reciprocating that then I’m going to take a step back, have a think, and change directions and think about who else I could explore with."
