A former Miss Great Britain, the hunky brother of two soap stars and Danny Cipriani's Kelly Brook lookalike ex: Meet the singletons ready to take on Love Island
It became one of the most explosive dating shows of all time when it debuted last year.
And this season's Love Island boasts some of the most colourful contestants yet as Miss Great Britain, the brother of two handsome soap stars and a former flame of rugby ace Danny Cipriani are just some of the beautiful faces that will attempt to find love when the new series kicks off on Monday.
Once again hosted by Caroline Flack, the series will see 11 20-somethings share a house on a sun-soaked island with the hopes of pursuing new relationships in the process - although as Shakespeare once said, the course of true love never did run smooth.

'Both my brothers are actors in soaps, so I've always been around that.
'They support me, but I want to do this on my own. I've been brought up with it so I'm prepared in a way, but it's my turn now. It doesn't scare me, that side of things,' he said of his time on the show.
Also looking for love is Sophie Gradon, 30, who was formerly in a relationship with London Wasps star Danny Cipriani.

Speaking about her high profile relationship with the sports ace, the marketing manager dished: 'I used to date Danny Cipriani. Suddenly I was in the papers being called a 'Kelly Brook lookalike', which is nice, as she's stunning!
'My relationship with Danny was intense. I fell in absolute lust with him. He bowled me over with charm. He's a very special man. You fall completely in love with him, and I did.'

Asked to describe his dream girl, he explained: 'She has to be perfect! She has to be intelligent, athletic and healthy, and just have something about her. She should just be fun. I want a girl with good energy, who makes me happy.'
Also keen to find the one is Rykard Jenkins, 25, a personal trainer from Kent.
Describing the kind of woman he won't be looking for, he explained: 'Girls who are self obsessed, who care too much about their image, and take themselves too seriously. That's just boring to be around. If they've got nothing to offer other than how they look, then I lose interest.'

Though it seems none of the contestants are more excited than presenter Caroline, who admitted she was 'addicted' to last year's show and doesn't expect 2016 to be any different.
Addressing her obsession, she said: 'Everything moves so fast in there. Relationships are so interesting when you get to see everything and you get to see them develop and change right from the start.'
Though that's not to say that there aren't moments she wants to switch off as she owned up to finding the sex scenes cringe-worthy.
'I had to have my fingers in my ears for certain parts. I could watch it no problem, but I preferred watching it to listening to it. I don't like hearing those noises!' she quipped.
