Love Island USA Season 7 Casa Amor: Who is Zak Srakaew? All you need to know about new bombshell who already has fans obsessed
Love Island USA Season 7 Casa Amor: Casa Amor is almost here, and fans of Love Island USA Season 7 know exactly what that means. Relationships will be tested and loyalties questioned, and the real shake-up is just beginning. With the twist kicking off in just a few hours, anticipation is running high, especially around one rumoured bombshell set to stir things up. While the official lineup is yet to enter the show, one name is already making waves online. Zak Srakaew has social media buzzing thanks to his striking looks and that unavoidable British accent. Even before stepping foot in the villa, Zak is turning heads. His Instagram (@zakyeah) has caught the attention of Love Island watchers, and he's already being called one to keep an eye on. With model-level features and low-key charm, he's got people talking. But there might be more to Zak than what you see on the surface. If you're not sure what all the fuss is about, let's break down what Casa Amor is—and why the internet is already obsessed with Zak. Love Island USA Season 7: So, what exactly is Casa Amor? Casa Amor is one of the most anticipated twists in Love Island. It separates the boys and girls into two villas and introduces a fresh group of bombshells to tempt the islanders. This time, the girls will be moving out while new boys step in to shake things up with the guys. At the end of the twist, islanders have to decide whether to stick with their original partner or couple up with someone new. It's often messy, unpredictable, and emotional, so fans are always excited about it. Who is Zak Srakaew, the new bombshell set to enter the house? Six boys and five girls are about to enter the villa as new bombshells, but Zak has already been pegged as one of this season's standout. He's originally from Thailand but grew up in Manchester, and his polished look and calm confidence are already drawing comparisons to past fan favourites. Viewers are curious to see whether he's entering with serious intentions or just to stir the pot. Interestingly, this isn't Zak's first time on reality TV. He previously appeared on Big Brother UK, so he's no stranger to the spotlight. That experience could give him an edge in the villa — but as any fan knows, Love Island is a different game. The emotional stakes are higher, and the connections get personal fast. Zak is already a social media star Zak, 30, already has a strong presence on Instagram (@zakyeah), where nearly 200,000 followers keep up with his life. His feed reflects his model background—clean outfits, gym mirror selfies, and aesthetic shots from trips around the world, including frequent visits to Thailand, where he has roots. From beachside views to city backdrops, his travel content gives fans a glimpse into his lifestyle. But it's not all about the visuals, every now and then, Zak shares more personal moments too, like sweet messages to his family or reflective captions that hint at a more grounded side. If you caught him on Big Brother UK, you'll remember he talked about how people always assume he's full of himself because of how he looks. But Zak described himself as chill, genuine, and someone who doesn't take himself too seriously. With that mix of looks, low-key charm, and a bit of mystery, it's no surprise he's getting attention before even stepping into Love Island USA's Casa Amor. Fans are already shipping Zak Srakaew before his Casa Amor debut Fans on X are already obsessed with Zak Srakaew, posting his photos, praising his vibe, and hyping up his entrance before he's even stepped into the villa. Some have already started shipping him with their favorite contestants, guessing who he'll connect with and how he might shake up the dynamics. His entry hasn't even aired yet, but the internet is clearly ready. OMG THIS IS THE GUY THATS GOING TO CASA AMOR?!!?!!??? LAWWWD #LoveIslandUSA the asian guy from casa amor is called zak, he's a british model from london. The picture doesn't do him justice but he's immature tho #LoveIslandUSA Love Island USA Season 7 Casa Amor: When and where to watch? Casa Amor officially begins on Monday, June 23, streaming at 9 PM ET/PT on Peacock. That's when Zak will make his entrance, and the islanders will face their biggest challenge yet.
