Love Island's Casa Amor line-up has been revealed after last night's episode - and one of the bombshell boys is a rugby player from Essex.

Jake Spivey arrived on ITV's hit reality series during Sunday night's episode as he promised he's going to "hit the ground running".

Who is Love Island bombshell Jake Spivey?

The 25-year-old electrician has played as a full back for Rochford Hundred Rugby Club - which is based in Hawkwell - for the past three seasons. He has made a total of 55 appearances.

He has described himself as a social butterfly who is "very direct and very confident".

Jake says about himself: "I’m confident, flirty and I’m not going to be afraid to put myself on the front line and hit the ground running with the grafting.

"This whole experience is about trying to find someone that’s got the banter and the personality that can match me and match my energy.

"Obviously, they’re all going to be good looking girls. If I can get a vibe with someone, that’s what I’m going for."

Jake didn't hesitate to reveal his sights are set on Matilda - a fellow bombshell who is currently coupled up with original islander Sean.

He said: "Matilda, she’s my frontrunner. She’s my type to a tee.

"She said she likes muscles, tan, teeth… I thought, cool, she seems like a good ball of fun. I’m going to go for her."

Episodes of Love Island air Sunday to Friday on ITV2 at 9pm.
