Love Island 2019 contestants: Meet new boys and girls joining Casa Amor

Here’s a run down of Love Island’s new contestants as a group of 12 boys and girls join the show.

Yes, Casa Amor is returning for 2019 as a huge twist awaits this weekend.

The current six girls and guys will soon be split up across two separate villas: The original villa and second villa Casa Amor.

The boys will then be joined by six brand new girls while the original girls will spend time with six new guys.

At the end of the twist, each of the original Islanders will have to decide whether they want to stay with their previous partner or couple up with one of the newbies.

With all that drama to come, for now here’s all of the new Love Islanders (and their Instagram handles to stalk!)

Love Island’s new girls

Lavena Back

23-year-old business developer from Croydon

Instagram username: @iam_l.v

She says: I’m confident and I’m ready for love. I’ve been on my own for four years so whoever I meet in there I will fall for. I needed a while to get over my last relationship and really enjoy myself before I could commit to someone. But now I’m very much ready.”

Nabila Badda

29-year-old hostess from London

Instagram username: @nabilabadda

She says: “I’m exciting, bubbly and I’m feisty enough that if I want something I’ll go for it. Also I’ve got that exotic look that I think the villa is missing. My family are from Morocco and there hasn’t been an Arabian Princess in the villa yet this year!

“I’ll get on well with the boys and want to meet a guy that I can be best friends with, have a laugh with but also have cuddles in the evening with.”

Belle Hassan

21-year-old makeup artist from Bromley

Instagram username: @bellehassan

She says: “I’m fun, I’m funny and I’m flirty. Hopefully I’ll liven things up a bit, I’m looking to make everyone laugh and want to bring a new dynamic to the villa and have some fun.”

Instagram username: @dennon_lewis

He says: “I’d say that I’m funny, energetic, I’m very positive and I have decent banter. That’s what you need in the villa.”
