Two former Love Island Australia stars are heading into the Love Island UK villa as bombshells, and neither have any links to the country.
When it was announced that two Aussie LI alum would be joining the UK iteration of the show, many fans jumped to the conclusion that Callum, who came second runner-up on the latest season and is from Wales, would be joining the show. However, The Sun has revealed that two Islanders who are crossing the pond for the international version are Aaron Waters and Jessie Wynter.
Aaron starred in season three of Love Island, and was linked to Jess Velkovski for the majority of his season. However, the couple broke up shortly after filming wrapped. Meanwhile, Jessie Wyner was on season two of Love Island and she left the show happily paired up with Elton. However, they too broke up after leaving the villa.
The publication reported that Aaron and Jessie have been flown “over 10,000 miles to cause mayhem in Cape Town and will be seen on screen for the first time tonight.”
A source told The Sun to expect drama from the Aussie imports. “The two new international recruits are essentially professional bombshells and won’t just shake up the villa – they’ll blow it apart,” they said.
“Both of them bed-hopped, bonked and had blistering rows on their seasons of Love Island.
“And neither has a shred of British restraint about them.
