Love Island 2023: Casey O’Gorman rumoured to join the South African villa as a bombshell

Love Island have reportedly lined up a ‘handsome’ friend of former islander Montana Brown to join the winter villa as an upcoming Bombshell.

The new winter edition of ITV2’s popular reality TV series hit our screens on Monday, revamped with a lavish new Cape Town villa and fresh host. We saw a new bunch of singles, heading into the villa, looking for love, and prepared to take on the romance-related challenges and inevitable drama which will ensue.

The show is also known for its surprises and late arrivals that are sure to cause a stir in the villa, during the later stages of the show in Casa Amor.

According to the MailOnline, Casey O’Gorman, 26, from London, is set to join the South African villa at some stage of the show as a bombshell.

The possible bombshell, brands himself as the ‘Hunky Headhunter’ on his LinkedIn profile, and writes: “I am a specialist head-hunter for tax professionals who work in the Private Practice, Private Equity and In-House sector.”

He attended private school and went on to study Sports Business Management at Leeds Beckett University.

His Instagram shows that he’s a keen traveller with snaps taken in multiple exotic locations across the world. His profile also includes photos of when he ran the London Marathon and raised over £3500 for leukaemia, in memory of his grandad.

The headhunter is pals with former islanders Montana Brown from series three and Joe Garratt from series five. Casey and Montana follow each other on Instagram and Casey was tagged in Joe Garratt’s 2022 New Years Eve celebration video. He can be seen at the very start - toasting with drinks amongst a group of friends.

Radio and television presenter, Maya Jama, 28, from Bristol, has taken over as the new host of the dating reality series.  So far, she has proven to be a hit amongst Love Island fans, who seem to be in awe as she takes on her new duties in the villa.

Former winner, Davide Sanclimenti, appeared on ITV’s Good Morning Britain (GMB) on Monday, and said his advice to the new islanders would be to “be yourself.”

He said: "If you are a genuine person and you actually want to find someone for love and the right person is there you will have an amazing experience."

"Don’t go there for fame but because you actually want to find someone," he added.
