THE Love Island villa is set to get stirred up tonight, with the arrival of a hunky new Islander.
Harrison Solomon, 22, from Burton-on-Trent is set to ruffle feathers – and he’s already got his eye on one girl Islander in particular.
The Sun revealed earlier today how the hunky footballer, who is fresh from Florida after studying in the States, will be unveiled as the latest bombshell in tonight’s episode.
Before going into the famous villa, Harrison was grilled about the type of girl he was looking for – and there is already one Islander he likes.
Hinting that he would be making a beeline for US Islander Toni, he said: “I do really like American girls.
“Their personality is slightly different, in general they’re more confident and go for what they want.
“But I like a challenge, I like a bit of the chase.”
Revealing what gives him the “ick”, Harrison said: “I don’t like it when girls have celebrity crushes.
“If I’m with a girl I want them to have eyes for me, not talking about another guy when we’re watching a film!”
Harrison also comes into the show with insider villa knowledge, as he counts 2023 Casa Amor girl Amber Wise as a friend.
A source told the Sun “Harrison couldn’t arrive in the villa at a better time as all the promising, early couples are looking fractured and it’s looking likely he’ll have heads swivelling.”
Harrison played soccer at the University of New Hampshire but back home played in defence for Derby County’s youth side.
The new Islander’s Instagram is full of jet set snaps from trips around America, to Barbados and Dubai.
Speaking about why he signed up for the show, Harrison told ITV: “Excited – I just want to get in there.
“I’m buzzing to go in.”
Watch Harrison enter the villa tonight on Love Island from 9pm on ITV2.
