Love Island stars to feature as part of Powys pub's show week line-up

It's July, which means the Royal Welsh Show is right around the corner, which in turn means the popular Builth boozer is busy preparing a star-studded line-up to entertain showgoers this summer. And punters won't be disappointed with the list of special guests revealed so far – which includes Ultrabeat, who had a smash hit in 2003 with its cover of 'Pretty Green Eyes', originally recorded by Force & Styles in the mid-90s. Sammy Root and Nicole Samuel, of Love Island fame, will also be appearing, as well as a host of DJs to keep everyone entertained. The town centre pub announced its line-up in a series of tantalising Facebook posts throughout June – while landlord Rory Owen remains tight-lipped on who else will or could be appearing. 'Dance legend Ian Redman of Ultrabeat – famous for the UK smash hit Pretty Green Eyes' – will be bringing the energy to Builth Wells for one unmissable night,' said the White Horse on its page. 'Expect a high-energy, genre-bending set full of clubland classics, bounce and house anthems, alongside the electric presence of MC Cover.' The duo will be performing at the pub on Wednesday night, July 23, traditionally one of the two biggest nights of the week. The festivities kick off on Saturday, July 19, with Sammy, of Love Island All Stars and the Love Island series 10 winner, also known for The Only Way Is Essex (TOWIE) appearing, while Ryan Arnold will be behind the decks. Crowd favourite Danny T will be in charge on Sunday night, while Love Island 2024 runner-up Nicole will feature on Monday, alongside rising Australian DJ and producer Ely Oaks. Twin DJ duo Altego will be spinning tracks on Tuesday, while Ian Davies, resident DJ at the White Horse for the last decade, is back and will be warming you up every night. More big names could be added as we get closer to show week, with the event itself taking place over the bridge at the Royal Welsh Showground in Llanelwedd from Monday-Thursday, July 21-24. After hosting TOWIE icon Joey Essex two years ago and legendary glamour model Jordan, aka Katie Price, last year, 2025 has lots to live up to. 'What's coming… is bigger than you think,' added the White Horse. Entry to the pub is free all week. Visit the pub on Builth's High Street, check out the website at or keep up to date with everything via the Facebook page.

'Unlucky in love' "She's been unlucky in love since moving down under and is hoping to find Mr Right with a little help from Maya Jama and the British public." As glamorous as she is well-travelled, Emily's social media presence paints a picture of an adventurous young woman. She enjoys beach days, often sharing photos of herself soaking up the sun in an array of stylish bikinis.

With a penchant for tall, dark and handsome men, she is expected to have a wide range of options when she lands in the famous villa. As of June 10, 2025, Emily already boasts over 7,000 followers on Instagram, but that's sure to skyrocket during her time on Love Island. Her most recent social media posts on the platform from the end of May 2025 indicate she's living the dream. 'Happy girl' She told her followers she was a "happy girl" in one post, while another saw her say: "I love my little life". The arrival of Emily follows reports of the first dramatic dumping of the season, where one of the original villa girls was unexpectedly sent home. This twist, promised by the show's bosses as part of the Love Island's 10th anniversary celebrations, has set the stage for further surprises throughout the series. A source said: 'This girl will be sorely missed as was already proving to be a big character. She was absolutely gutted to leave. 'But the series has twists and turns at every stage and this isn't the usual dumping viewers might expect after a bombshell arrives. 'Executive producer Mike Spencer-Hayter has promised drama for the tenth anniversary and this format point will not disappoint.'
