It wouldn't be Love Island without an Irish contestant…or two…
The latest season of the hit ITV dating show started with two Irish faces Megan and Conor, with Billykiss joining the villa shortly after as the ultimate bombshell.
Now, Casa Amor has returned for 2025, with yet another Irish islander set to turn heads. It wouldn't be Love Island without an Irish contestant…or two…Pic: ITV
27-year-old Andrada is one of six girls looking to make their mark on Casa Amor, as they look to find love and make their way back into the main villa.
The nail tech and personal trainer from Dublin has promised that she will 'turn heads' upon arrival and we are holding out hope.
Describing herself, she said: 'I am bold and I do want to get what I want, but I also want to find love, so hopefully the person that I do manage to get on with I can build a nice connection with. 27-year-old Andrada is one of six girls looking to make their mark on Casa Amor, as they look to find love and make their way back into the main villa.

'I want to find 'the one.' I'm going to come in with a little bit of spice for sure.'
When asked if she'll be walking on egg shells around any of the lads, she added: 'We're all going in there for ourselves and to find somebody, so it's bound to happen that I break up a couple. That's what I have to do and is what I'm going to do.'
Brimming with confidence, Andrada has a substantial social media presence, boasting 25.1K followers on Instagram alone.
She has won Miss Bikini Ireland in 2019 and Miss Swimsuit UK in 2025, proving she's the perfect fit for the class of 2025.
Will we see the Irish beauties clash in the main villa some time soon?
