As one Love Island contestant leaves - goodbye Ollie - that means there must be at least one bombshell waiting in the wings. And the next singleton heading for the South African villa might have been leaked. According to The Mirror, Aaron Borland is set to stir things up on the show. (Just like the bombshell twins revealed at the end of the first episode, Jess and Eve.)

While it hasn't been confirmed yet, here's a little bit about him: Aaron is a student at Loughborough University, who is said to be friends with professional cricketer Emilio Gay. And a source told the paper, ‘He's flown to South Africa and he told group of people he is going on Love Island. They've been talking about it. It's no surprise they've picked Aaron as everyone around uni knows him as a super good-looking guy.’ (Love Island told Grazia that they do not comment on their line-up.)

Looking through Aaron’s Instagram, and we can see why he might have been selected for the series - he already has posing nailed, and he has pictures of him horse riding and playing rugby.

And tonight, Ollie Williams departure is going to be aired on the show, after it was reported that Ollie left the villa, after realising he was still in love with Laura Nofer, his ex-girlfriend. And now, The Sun have reported that his exit is going to be shown tonight, with an emotional confession in the Beach Hut. 'I have to be honest with myself, and everyone, that I do still love someone else,' he says. 'I have to follow my heart in this scenario and it would be wrong for me to ignore these feelings. At the end of the day, this is Love Island and it’s about finding love. If I carried on anything with Paige, or any other girl that might come into the villa, it wouldn’t be fair on them.'
