Filming for season four of Love Island Australia is underway, and popular MAFS star Al Perkins appears to have joined the cast in search of fame love.

Daily Mail Australia papped Al surrounded by a bevvy of bikini-clad beauties in the show’s Spanish villa, which you can view here. To add fuel to the fire, his normally-active Instagram account has been silent since August 23rd.

The selected Aussie singles are currently in Mallorca, Spain filming season four of Love Island. However, the upcoming season seems to have a slightly different format from previous seasons.

In the past, Love Island has aired while the Islanders are still in the villa, which allows the viewers to vote for who they want to boot out of the show. There is currently no scheduled release date for Love Island Australia season four, which means that it’s likely the islanders will choose who to evict each week themselves.

Al appeared in season nine of MAFS, which aired this year and was a rating’s bonanza. The popular reality show had the most viewers of it’s slot for every single episode.

Al was paired with bride Samantha Moitzi, and the two had a tulmutuous relationship throughout the season. They eventually parted ways at the final commitment ceremony. And, while Al’s relationship with Samantha didn’t work out, he did make some solid friends on the show, including Brent Vitiello. The two co-stars headed off the California in May, where Brent met his current girlfriend, Taylor Davey.

“The first time I ever saw Taylor was at Ers and I was like, ‘Oh!’ – but she was with some guys and I wasn’t sure if she had a boyfriend, so I didn’t talk to her,” Brent recently told The Wash.

The reality star said he bumped into Taylor again at the airport, and followed her on Instagram and sent her a DM.

He continued, “A couple of weeks later I was in LA with Al and the boys, and saw on Instagram that Talyor was in Las Vegas with her friends. I looked at the boys and said I’m going to shoot my show, it’s perfect timing. She told me Vegas was amazing and said we should head there to catch up. I then looked at the boys and said, ‘This is going to be a real love story, I can feel it. Just watch.’ So we all went to Vegas… and it was a love story.”
