Love Island fans are set for fresh drama as a new bombshell is set to enter the villa, just mere days after two originals were voted off.

It comes in the same episode that saw originals Ikenna Ekwonna and Amber Beckford leave the villa, due to receiving the least amount of votes from the public, leaving Dami Hope and Indiyah Polack single.

Despite Dami and Indiyah becoming single, they quickly moved on and the two are now getting serious, something they discussed prior to their other half’s exit.

As the popular Iain Stirling muttered the famous words ‘tomorrow night’ where fans get a sneak peek into the following night’s episode, it showcased a new girl entering the villa.

Despite her not yet making an appearance, quite a lot is known about the new girl, such as her famous mum and her ex being a former Islander.

She could definitely stir up some drama too, rivalling Ekin-Su as an older woman in the villa, will she have her eyes set on Jay?

Prior to her entrance, she said: “I really just want to say yes to things. Why not? It’ll be fun. I’m a Cypriot girl and I love being in the sun, I’ve got nothing to lose!”

It’s rumoured that the new islander has been single for a year-and-a-half, and her ex is a former islander himself.

Who is her famous mum?

She has grown up around TV, as her mother is celebrity chef Tonia Buxton, who is regularly seen on the television show Sunday Brunch.

Taking to Instagram, Tonia, who has just over 35,000 followers said: ‘I can not believe that my Antigoni is in the Love Island villa, she mentioned she would be sunbathing this week. I didn’t think she meant in Mallorca!

‘We are all so excited for you and know you will be amazing! You have always been an island girl, so I know you will fit right in!’

Her mum isn’t the only famous person linked with the star, as boxing heavyweight Anthony Joshua once attended her single launch party.

Is she Jack Fowler’s ex?

Fowler, like his rumoured ex, was a late addition to the 2018 edition of Love Island, and quickly became a fan favourite.

It’s believed that the two were never really that serious, and were just in a casual relationship which eventually just naturally fizzled out.

What is her Instagram?

When most people enter the villa, they’re unverified but the new arrival already has that coveted blue tick next to her name, with her instagram (@Antigoni) showcasing her party lifestyle, littered of pictures with her and her friends, including snaps with Anthony Joshua to her 33,000 followers.
