He's only been in the Love Island villa less than 24 hours, but ballroom dancer Curtis Pritchard has already broken the Internet, by revealing his favourite sex position (yes, you read that correctly).

If you tuned into last night's (Tuesday) episode and weren't completely lost in Tommy Fury's dreamy eyes, you probably found yourself Googling 'the eagle', after Curtis revealed his love for the position in the first game of the series.

He said, "The eagle is my favourite romantic position, we shall say. I will leave you all to find that one out yourself because I'm not telling you what it is".

The nation was intrigued by Curtis' confession, with multiple sex information websites crashing due to the massive amounts of traffic on their sites. It was so widely search that the term 'the eagle' is number five in today's trends on Google.

Viewers were quick to make a joke of the situation, with one meme reading, 'Love Island really unites the nation, in less than 5 minutes we made a sex position website go down'.

So... What is The Eagle sex position?

The Eagle is when one partner lies on their back with their legs spread apart, or spread 'eagle'. The position is very similar to be 'missionary' but the the person lying down has their legs wide and in the air, rather than straight and flat on the bed,

In other Curtis Pritchard news, AJ's brother had a tough decision to make during last night's show, deciding which girl to couple up with.

After spending the day getting to know both Amy Hart and Yewande Biala, Curtis stole Amy from Anton, leaving Yewande gutted.

Of course, she wasn't as devastated as poor old Joe Garratt, who lost his girl to Tommy during the harsh recoupling.

Check out who is coupled up with who:
