Who is Love Island bombshell Bilikis? Age, job, background, Instagram and more as she takes Dejon on a date
Bilikis, a 28-year-old content creator from Dublin will join the villa on Tuesday 1st July and she'll be taking two guys from the Love Island 2025 cast - Dejon and Conor.
In a teaser clip for tonight's episode, Dejon receives a text which reads: " Conor and Dejon, Bilikis is waiting for you to go on a first date. Please get ready to leave the villa."
Meg can be heard shouting from across the villa upon hearing that her man is going on a date.
So, who exactly is Bilikis? And what's she looking for on Love Island?
Read on for everything you need to know about her, including what she had to say about joining the show.
Job: Content creator
From: Dublin
Bilikis is a content creator from Dublin.
She will make her Love Island debut on 1st July alongside Ryan - a Post Office retail support worker from Chesterfield.
Bilikis is 28-years-old.
She turned 28 in January, sharing a picture while in Egypt with the caption: "TwentyATE".
She is an Aquarius and according to Cosmo's Horoscope writer, they're "Not one for 'going with the flow', Aquarians make their own mind up and then stick to it. You can not cajole or persuade them from their viewpoint, unless you've got *evidence* i.e. data, facts, peer-reviewed analysis."
Sounds like we have a head strong girlie joining the villa.
We're so here for it!
Asked why she decided to go on the ITV2 dating show, she said: "I've been single for 10 years and what I've been doing on the outside world hasn't worked, so why not try Love Island?"
When it comes to what she's looking for, she added: "Someone tall who's good looking but not too good looking and that's confident, assertive, knows what they want and is serious about me."
And Bilikis has her eyes on two guys in particular - Conor and Dejon
"I'm here to bombshell so you've got to do what you've got to do," she said when asked how she feels about stepping on toes.
While Conor is in a friendship couple with Alima, Dejon has been coupled up with Meg from the start, so Biliki's arrival could cause some tension.
She is.
You can follow her at @billykiss. She currently has 81.7k and shares lots of glam shots on her grid as well as her work with several brands, including Smirnoff, Rimmell, Marc Jacobs and more.
New episodes of Love Island air on weekdays and Sundays at 9pm on ITV2.

Gen Zer Has Doctor Mom Obsessed With Hospital Gossip—but There's a Twist
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A woman's prank on her mother has gone viral, as she shared spicy gossip that was actually the plot to a famous TV show. Recent college graduate Mia, 22, settled down to gossip with her mom Marianne, 57, and told her a truly wild story about her friend, a surgical intern who "hooked up" with a man in a bar who turned out to be a neurosurgeon in her new workplace. Her mother was shocked, gasping and reacting in all the right places—but what she didn't know was that her daughter was in fact telling her the plot to the first episode of medical drama Grey's Anatomy. "My roommate told me I should tell my mom the plot of [reality TV show] Love Island as if it was one of my friends, but my mom watches Love Island so would know immediately," Mia explained to Newsweek. "I thought her idea was hilarious, and I knew my mom has never seen Grey's Anatomy, so decided to do that!" And, she added, Marianne works as an eye doctor—"so I knew she would love the hospital setting drama." In the video, posted to Mia's TikTok account @miabanales1515 on June 30 and viewed more than 4 million times, she wrote: "Telling my mom about my friend's internship story but it's really Grey's Anatomy season one." Marianne listens in shock to her daughter's story about her surgical intern friend. Marianne listens in shock to her daughter's story about her surgical intern friend. TikTok @ As her mom sits in bed, hooked on every word, Mia tells her about her "friend Meredith" who "just got an internship in Seattle"—the exact setting for the famous hospital drama. She tells Marianne that her friend "hooked up" with a man at a bar who was much older than they were, but is "really attractive"—and the next morning rushed to her first day at the internship only to find out "he's an attending surgeon at the hospital. She had no idea." Her mom whoops and shouts, and points out the older man likely "has money" due to his job. And as Mia continues with her story of the intern and the doctor dating on and off for weeks, she leaves it on a cliffhanger: her friend sees the doctor talking to a woman, who turns to her and says: "You must be the girl that's been screwing my husband." Marianne is totally shocked, slapping her hand over her mouth and shouting out, asking in horror if he's married, before calling him a "neurologist jerk." Mia, who gave her first name only, wrote in the caption: "Do we think Derek Shepard is a neurologist jerk?"

Grey's Anatomy actors Patrick Dempsey and Ellen Pompeo (Derek Shepard and Meredith Grey) pose in the press room at the 57th Annual Emmy Awards held at the Shrine Auditorium on September 18, 2005 in Los Angeles, California MoreTikTok users were in stitches, awarding the video more than 500,000 likes, as one called it "amazing" and another referenced a famous monologue spoken by the character of Meredith, played by Ellen Pompeo, in show: "Wow I hope this neurosurgeon picks her, chooses her, loves her." "You're obviously gonna have to keep this going for the next 20 years," another said, but one pleaded: "PLEASE make her watch Grey's and see how long it takes for her to connect the dots." Mia told Newsweek: "I have more parts filmed, as of now she knows about the joke but I have plenty of videos to add from before I broke the news to her! "I also have some fun clips of her watching Grey's Anatomy before she knew, which will be posted soon." The ABC drama, which first aired in 2005, is currently on its 21st season and has been renewed for a 22nd season, due to premiere in the fall of 2025. Mia explained she filmed the initial video "weeks ago," and "had no clue how much people would enjoy it." "Me and my sisters love to fill our mom in on any drama our friends face, she loves to be in the loop and always has great advice for our friends and us!"

Love Island spoiler: Toni and Harrison have explosive argument over secret Helena kiss
It's all kicking off in the Love Island villa tonight [2nd July], when Harrison reveals to Toni that he and Helena shared a secret kiss on the terrace. The drama in this series seriously never ends! After Helena caused chaos for Shakira and Harry during the heart rate challenge, when she whispered something seriously NSFW in Harry's ear - and the pair raised each other's heart rates the most - she's now coming between Harrison and Toni. During last night's episode, Harrison kissed Toni, before later kissing Helena on the terrace. Now Harrison, 22-years-old from Derby, is coming clean about his escapades - and Toni isn't happy. In the teaser for tonight's episode, released by ITV ahead of 9pm, he tells her, "I was just talking with Helena, we had a little chat and we had one kiss…" Toni is not best pleased by the revelation and has a few choice words for Harrison before she walks off. The next day is her birthday, and while Harrison tries to make it up for her by cooking her breakfast and writing her a note, Toni isn't going to be won over that easily. She tells Shakira, "Point one; a man who's for everyone is not a man for me. Point two; I did not come all the way here to cry. Point three; if you can't make a decision I'm gonna make it for you." She then tells him, "This is done. You've made your bed. Lie in it." Harrison then confides in Conor, "I'm sad, that actually hit me harder than I thought you know..." to which Conor replies, "It's probably just a classic case of you don't know what you have until it's gone…" Will Harrison and Toni find their way back to each other? Only one way to find out... Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 tonight.
