Two new contestants set to shake up the villa as tensions escalate

Two new female bombshells, dental nurse Charlotte Sumner and business owner Leah Taylor, are entering the Love Island villa just as tensions are rising. Leah Taylor, 27, from Manchester, shared that she has a competitive dance background and even performed on stage with British singer Rita Ora and Camila Cabello at the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs). She highlighted her love for dance, revealing her skill at backflipping, and described the experience as a career highlight.

In reflecting on potential turn-offs in a partner, Leah humorously mentioned: “When a guy eats yoghurt, takes the lid off, and licks it” as a pet peeve, adding that she dislikes when men try to shout without a strong voice. Confident in her own ability to raise her voice when needed, she described herself as someone with a powerful presence despite her petite frame.

Meanwhile, Charlotte Sumner, 30, from Bournemouth, describes herself as “kind, caring, and loyal,” as well as a supportive “girls’ girl” in the villa. In relationships, however, she admits she can be “hard work.” Recalling her best date experience, she detailed how an Italian admirer flew her and her best friend to Milan for fashion week, staying at the luxurious Armani hotel. Her dream date, she playfully added, would be with the beloved children’s character Paddington Bear over a marmalade sandwich.

Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX, airing Monday at 9pm.
