In Pictures: Meet the new Love Island contestants

Take a look at the 10 contestants entering the Love Island villa next week.

Barely has the dust settled on the winter edition than Love Island is back on our screens again!

Ten new singletons will enter the famous villa next week looking to find love (and more less importantly, take the chance to win a £50,000 cash prize).

Scroll on to meet the new islanders!



Catherine Agbaje for Love Island series 10© ITV

Catherine Agbaje

Age: 22

From: Dublin

Occupation: Commercial real estate agent

Why are you single?: "I don't know. Maybe it's lust and not going deeper and staying on the surface level."

What gives you the ick?: "It might be a weird ick, but I don't really like long hair, especially when it gets sweaty...!"



Ella Thomas for Love Island series 10© ITV

Ella Thomas

Age: 23

From: Glasgow

Occupation: Model

Why are you single?: "There is something going on with men these days, they don't know a real one when they've got one. I'd say it's no fault of my own but by choice because I'd never settle for less, you have to keep your standards high."

What gives you the ick?: "Guys that sit on Instagram and like every girl's pictures is an ick for me, if I can see he's been liking the girls posts on my explore page, it's a no. I also get the ick if a guy can't dress and doesn't smell good."



Jess Harding for Love Island series 10© ITV

Jess Harding

Age: 22

From: London

Occupation: Aesthetics practitioner

Why are you single?: "Because every boy is giving me the ick at the moment. I feel like it's fate because I'm saving myself for Mr Right in the Villa!"

What gives you the ick?: "When a guy stunts for money, that's an ick. Showing off all their designer clothes because most of the time they're probably fake anyway! Another one is when a boy runs for the train and the train goes without him. Lunch Boxes also - just go to Tesco and get a meal deal!"



Molly Marsh for Love Island series 10© ITV

Molly Marsh

Age: 21

From: Doncaster

Occupation: Music theatre performer / Social media creator

Why are you single?: "I think I go with my gut feeling and my gut is always right - that's why I'm single at the moment."

What gives you the ick?: "Guys shouting at the television when they're watching sports or the news. You're not going to get anywhere with me if you're shouting at the television."



Ruchee Gurung for Love Island series 10© ITV

Ruchee Gurung

Age: 24

From: Sutton

Occupation: Beautician

Why are you single?: "I can be quite picky and as I've got older, if I see one red flag I just don't have the time to deal with it, so I can also be quite 'no nonsense'."

What gives you the ick?: "Guys with no ambition. I also get the ick if I see a guy wearing white jeans and red trainers. Another one is super skinny jeans when they look like leggings. Fashion is such an important thing for me. If I go on a date and the guy isn't wearing something I like, I'm going home."



Andre Furtado for Love Island series 10© ITV

Andre Furtado

Age: 21

From: Dudley

Occupation: Business owner

Why are you single?: "Commitment issues."

What gives you the ick?: "When I'm out eating with a fine woman and she's chomping on her food. Another ick is being unnecessarily disrespectful, especially to parents, family members, or waiters."



George Fensom for Love Island series 10© ITV

George Fensom

Age: 24

From: Bedford

Occupation: Business development executive

Why are you single?: "Because of the wrong decisions that I've made in the past. I've not put girls first in relationships which I should've done."

What gives you the ick?: "When girls clap their hands when they speak or when people put too many exclamation marks in texts, three is enough."



Mehdi Edno for Love Island series 10© ITV

Mehdi Edno

Age: 26

From: Bordeaux/London

Occupation: Communications manager

Why are you single?: "I'm single at the moment because I've been too busy for love."

What gives you the ick?: "Clingy girls, and girls that act and talk in a childish way. I like a sophisticated girl who looks after herself."



Mitchel Taylor for Love Island series 10© ITV

Mitchel Taylor

Age: 26

From: Sheffield

Occupation: Gas engineer

Why are you single?: "I'm just really picky. I've got to find the girl that I want to marry and have kids with. I'm nearly 27, I don't want to play the field anymore, I want to find the one."

What gives you the ick?: "Food in your teeth and counting coins in your hand - when a girl stands at the bar counting out the coins to pay for a drink. It's not for me!"



Tyrique Hyde for Love Island series 10© ITV

Tyrique Hyde

Age: 24

From: Essex

Occupation: Semi-professional footballer

Why are you single?: "In the past I've not been ready to commit to a relationship but now I'm open to settling down with the right girl."

What gives you the ick?: "When girls walk around barefoot when they are coming out of a club. Another one is girls that are too into star signs."



The new series of Love Island begins Monday, June 5 at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
