Love Island 2025 boys line-up in full - ages, Instagram handles and jobs
Get set for some major summer sizzle as we introduce you to the Love Island 2025 boys. The buzz is real ahead of the new series, with six boys set to storm the iconic villa tonight.
Maya Jama will play host to a dozen Islanders, who are single and ready to mingle and heat up the summer nights. Kyle Ashman will not be in the new series and has stepped down due to "personal reasons". However, Calum Philips is swooping in last-minute to complete the line-up ahead of the series starting tonight.
With just hours until the island is abuzz with flirty banter and sultry sunsets, here's the lowdown on the boys:
Ben Holbrough
Age: 23
From: Gloucester
Job: Private Hire Taxi driver.
Ben's on the hunt for someone who's got that "sexy, good looking" vibe, armed with "good chat, good vibes, nice teeth and good eye contact. Oh, and also a cute smile, I just look at you and know I can be around you all day, every day."
When referencing his love life in relation to a business, he quipped: "Bankrupt. I'd have been out of business a long time ago. That's exactly why I'm here."
Blu Chegini
Age: 26
From: London
Job: Construction Project Manager
Over the last decade, the Love Island villa has seen its fair share of steamy encounters, with some Islanders taking their romances to the next level. Blu's mum seems to be quite the connoisseur in matters of the bedroom.
Blue revealed his unique family business: "My mum owns a sex shop in Spain, which everyone knows and is quite popular. Growing up as a kid I was laughed at for it, but little did people know that all their parents were buying stuff from there."
Blu is on the hunt for someone who values family, can both give and receive plenty of love, and believes that "personality goes a long way".
Conor Philips
Age: 25.
From: Limerick.
Job: Professional rugby player.
The latest addition to the villa, Conor Philips, is eager to meet the woman of his dreams. He's drawn to a self-assured, ambitious partner with a zest for life and a good sense of humour.
He has a soft spot for "dark eyes" and appreciates a "dominant woman."
Ahead of joining the series, he disclosed his biggest turn-off: "Being too needy, or needing to do everything together. I like someone to be independent and do their own thing and then we come together and do our thing."
Conor's arrival follows Kyle Ashman's departure from the show due to "personal reasons".
Dejon Noel-Williams
Age: 26.
From: London.
Job: Personal trainer.
Dejon, a London-based footballer playing for Bedford Town, has quite the pedigree with past stints at clubs like Oxford United, Wealdstone, Guadalajara, and representation for Grenada on an international level.
His father, Gifton Noel-Williams, age 45, boasts an impressive career, having played for teams such as Stoke City, Watford, and Burnley. Chatting with ITV, Dejon shared: "My dad being an ex-professional footballer. I've met all kinds of famous people through him."
He recalls his childhood encounters with fans and stars, saying: "When I was younger it was weird because he was just my dad, but we'd go to a game and fans were asking for photos. I've met David Beckham, he was really nice."
Harry Cooksley
Age: 30.
From: Guildford.
Job: Gold trader, semi-professional footballer and model.
Harry Cooksley, at 30 years old, is the eldest of the original contestants for the 2025 series. From Guildford, he splits his time between gold trading, playing Farnham Town – earning the nickname "The Surrey Zidane" – and modelling gigs.
Boasting a unique claim to fame, Harry disclosed: "So, when Declan Rice does a shoot, any body close-ups will actually be me. You'll never see my face, but you'll see my shoulder or chest, that kind of thing."
Tommy Bradley
Age: 22.
From: Hertfordshire.
Job: Landscape gardener.
Tommy has revealed that he shares a brotherly bond with boxer Jamie Bradley. Before setting foot in the villa, Tommy admitted: "My brother Jamie is a professional boxer. He used to train with Anthony Joshua."
Regarding his ideal partner on the island, Tommy expressed: "A girl who is very ambitious, with a big personality, caring, but also someone that doesn't take themselves too seriously. I don't know if that's asking for too much, but I want a bit of everything. I haven't got a specific type in terms of looks, though."

Writing on social media after the episode, Harry Hugo said: 'The clip that I said to Helena that it would have never worked romantically with her and Harry - they were just great mates on a holiday romance but their banter is the same. 'That's why she'd fit into our wider friendship group (of 8 couples). It 100% wasn't me telling her she'd be a better fit than Shakira. I said the opposite to her face.' He continued: 'Both Julia and I called Harry out for his behaviour and him being inconsiderate of others' feelings with his actions.' Harry also told how Shakira has 'banned' Harry from wearing his infamous Speedo swimwear. He said: 'We joked and laughed with Shakira and her family about Harry's dreadful wardrobe and Speedos. She has since banned him from wearing them.' Addressing Harry and Shakira's recent reunion, he added: "It was clear spending an hour with them that they are really into each other and I can't wait to see how he tries to make amends." Shakira and Harry have recoupled after the infamous Grafties awards revealed he was trying to get back close to her despite being with Helena. And Shakira's mum Sukina revealed it's only her daughter he'll need to make things up to. Shakira told her mum and sister: "I adore him and I really wish I didn't, that's the problem. It would be easier if I hated him, but I don't." Harry's football team under fire after 'disgusting' video branding Love Island's Shakira 'a nosey b---h' And Sukina replied: "What I will say, with him, he can prove himself to you before he has to prove himself to me."

Love Island's Shaughna reveals unborn baby's gender in emotional video with jailbird boyfriend out on day release
FORMER Love Island star Shaughna Phillips has revealed her unborn baby's gender in an emotional video. Sitting beside her jailbird boyfriend, Billy, who appeared to be out on day release for the occasion, the 31-year-old reality star was seen beaming as she opened a box. 6 6 6 The former Love Island star, who featured in the sixth series of the hit ITV2 dating show, opened up a huge box to reveal the gender of her baby, which is due to be born in November. Just last month she revealed that she was pregnant with her second child, and now she has revealed she is having a second daughter - a baby girl. Shaughna is already a mum to two-year-old daughter Lucia, whom she shares with her jailbird boyfriend Billy Webb. In the video, Shaughna could be seen sitting outside in the garden with her boyfriend, who had a white heart emoji over his face, by her side. Standing in front of the couple was their daughter Lucia. Billy could be seen tickling the little girl ahead of the gender of their unborn baby being revealed. Shaughna then lifted up the lid of the big box to reveal and abundance of pink items and a cuddly toy. She previously told The Sun: "Yes. So I do know the gender. I didn't find out with Lucia, and so I wanted to find out this time. "I wanted to be able to tell her, like, you're going to have a brother or you're going to have a sister." Reacting to the gender reveal Instagram post, one person penned: "Sooooo happy for you! What a dream for Lucia to have a baby sister. Cant wait to meet her." Love Island's Shaughna Phillips announces she's pregnant with baby number two and says daughter will be 'best big sister' Another said: "Aww congratulations to you all." "Ah babe this is so lovely! Girl mums for the win," said a third. "Ahhhh big congratulations to you all. I knew it was going to be a girl," added a fourth. A fifth then wrote: "Two girls are the best! We love it." While a sixth said: "Congratulations I'm 54 and have 3 grown up beautiful daughters! You will always have best friends." Shaughna's partner Billy was jailed in 2023 on drugs charges. Speaking about trying for her second child, Shaughna recently revealed to us that she was not expecting to get pregnant so quickly. "I was trying. It was my first attempt at, I guess, getting pregnant, like actively trying. "And so I knew that there was a chance, but I've probably kept Clear Blue in business. "If you saw my Amazon orders, I was ordering test after test after test. It was actually ridiculous. So, yeah, I knew that there was a chance. "But I really didn't expect it to happen on the first try. Like, I'm very lucky in that sense." The star admitted that she used to continuously take tests, but it was still a shock when she saw that positive line. "I was testing, testing and testing, and it was coming back negative because I was so early," Shaughna revealed. "Then it got to the point where, because I was testing so much, I would do one and not even think twice about it because I was doing them about seven times a day." The TV personality continued: "And so I did one, first thing in the morning, and I left it in the toilets for about half an hour. "I think only when I went back in there to brush my teeth, I was like, oh, yeah, there it is, let's have a look." "I was thinking it's going to be negative, obviously. And then there was the faintest positive line; I was over the moon." The star admitted she was stunned by the news, but she conducted yet another test to make sure the news was definite. "But I just really didn't expect it'd be the first try. So, it was a shock. It was still a shock, even though I was trying," she added. 6 6 6

She set the record straight prior to stepping foot in the Mallorca villa LOVE Island star Toni Laites' mum has clapped back at rumours she's suing ITV after making her new TikTok account private. The proud parent became the centre of attention after deleting social media videos calling out a host of ITV2 stars, despite only setting up the page weeks ago. 6 Love Island star Toni Laites's mum has revealed the real reason she made her TikTok account private Credit: Instagram 6 Florida-based Leslie entered the villa last night Credit: Eroteme 6 American bombshell Toni's mum said speculation she was suing ITV was 'not real' Credit: Eroteme It came just hours before Florida-based Leslie sent show fans into a frenzy as she took the long-haul flight to the Mallorca villa. ITV previously confirmed the return of the very popular Meet The Family segment, set to air in the lead-up to the final. The feature, which sees Islanders reunited with their family members and friends inside the villa, has long been a staple of the series. On Tuesday, fans weren't disappointed as Leslie, dressed in a black bandeau dress adorned with a pink petal pattern came to chat to Toni and her Love Island partner, Cach. Shortly before the reunion, she took to her TikTok page to address the mounting speculation she was taking legal action against the broadcaster. The rumour started on a Love Island fan page and Leslie said: "My accounts were set to private because I had other stuff to do not because myself and Shakira's mum are suing ITV. "We are definitely not, that rumour should be put to rest immediately. "There's even a rumour that she and I were spotted in London together with an attorney, also 100 per cent fake news." Leslie added: "It is not real. Love Island star Toni's mum reveals how she really feels about Harrison's exit after hittng out at her daughter "I cant wait for you guys to see the episode and we will talk about it." She then wrapped her chat with the words: "Other than that, I just wanted to reassure you we are all good, just no lawsuit. "Hope you have a great night." Toni's mum has been a regular online commenting on the antics on the matchmaking show. She previously broke down in tears and told how she was "really disappointed" in her daughter after she left Cach and reunited with Harrison. She then told how she really felt about bombshell Harrison's exit in another clip. VILLA ENTRY On Tuesday's episode, Toni was sitting on the terrace, when suddenly she heard her mum Leslie shout: 'Is Toni here? Where's Toni?' Realising friends and family have come to visit the Villa, Toni raced down the stairs to greet her mum who had flown in from Florida. Toni's best friend Marielle also made the trip and she joked of being in the Villa: 'It's like meeting our Sims in real life!' As they caught up, talk turned to her daughter's romantic relationships in the Villa, and Leslie said: 'The Harrison thing - I'd love to know what voodoo spell he put on you.' Toni replied: 'Sometimes you have to get burned 150 times before you can't get burnt anymore.' Leslie insisted of Cach: 'You have the most amazing man. His morals, his ethics, his calm demeanour when he is confronted with a bad situation… he is my king.' Toni laughingly replied: 'No, he's my king - back off!' FAN FAVE Toni and Cach have had a bumpy romance so far on the show, hindered by Toni and Harrison's will-they-won't-they situation. Casa Amor lad Cach is now coupled up with American stunner Toni, despite his embarrassment and tears after she ditched him for Harrison at a previous recoupling. His sister then grilled Toni on making Cach cry yet despite the awkward chat, fans were elated at Leslie's appearance on-screen. They praised the American, and her reaction to Toni's man, and one wrote on Instagram: "Toni's mum is a sweetheart !! Cach deserved those words for sure." A second posted: "Toni's mum has stated EVERY FACT. Cach handled it very well. His parents must be SO SO proud." A third noted: "Toni's mum, what a beautiful woman she is." One then added: "Okay that speech from Toni's mom made me tear up a little… Cach what an incredible guy." Another surmised: "I love this and Toni's mum is so beautiful and she deserves the world." 6 Leslie told her TikTok page speculation she had met with an attorney was 'fake news' Credit: TikTok / lipglossles 6 Fans praised Leslie's reaction to Cach on the ITV2 show Credit: Eroteme
