A Devon lad is set to be a new face on your television tonight as he shakes things up on Love Island. The hit Casa Amor villa will see a dozen newbies enter in an attempt to steal the hearts of one of its existing contestants.

The current couples will be split up as the temptation of meeting someone new has the potential to tear them away from one another. And one of the six new male contestants on the scene is Devon's very own Joel Kirby.

At 22-years-old, Joel has already amassed a huge social media following of more than 120,000 followers. The fitness content creator and postgraduate student hails from the Braunton area in North Devon and shares his life with his fans.

Joel regularly posts revealing snaps of his svelte body and workout routines to Instagram, including workouts across various beaches in Devon and some of his travels. He also hosts his podcast called All Gains No Game.

A source told the Mail Online he also has an Only Fans account he set up to "fund his way through university". But they say no steamy snaps are on there, mostly topless shots.

Joining him are five other men hoping to find love and secure a place on Love Island once their stint in the divisive Casa Amor comes to an end. They include Blade, 29, from Stevenage, Hugo, 24, from Southampton and Jake, 25, from Essex. Lionel, aged 24 from Reading will also be joining them.

Six new women will also be in the mix. Diamanté, 21, from London, Ellie, 22, from Cardiff, Emma, 30, from Manchester, Jessica, 25, from London and Lucy, 26 from Glasgow.

Casa Amor is always a huge hit with fans as it causes chaos when the boys and girls are split up and temptation is put in their way. Will their relationships last - or will Casa Amor cause the end to multiple romances?

As it stands this year, one of the girls entering the villa is best friends with Grace, who TV reality star heartthrob Joey Essex was cosying up with before things got messy with the arrival of Jessy Potts. But what will Joey do now as Casa looms?

There could also be trouble for Ciaran's partnership as multiple girls are interested in him. Grace, Uma and Matilda also look like they could be snapped up with plenty of drama ahead.
