Love Island first look: Claudia makes her mark as they get a surprise text

Ellen Fitzpatrick

Tonight.

Tonight on Love Island the islanders are utterly stunned by the new arrival as Claudia makes herself at home in the villa.

As she partakes in the heart rate challenge, Casey says: “Oh my god, my heart’s going crazy”.

He later adds: “She’s my type to a T.”

Introducing herself to the boys, Claudia says: “What’s the vibe? How is everyone couples wise? Are we settled? are we not?”

It’s not long before the results of the challenge are shared, and Clauida’s arrival definitely had an impact.

One boy in particular reacts well to Claudia and comes as a shock to the girl he’s in a couple with. Claudia says: “Sorry… I’m very flattered.”

What will the boy in question’s partner make of this revelation?

 

It’s then time for Claudia to head on two dates, picking Tom and Casey, enjoying a date each under a pergola set alongside a stunning sea view.

First up is Tom who says: “I think I got the best of both worlds, two very nice views, I can’t complain.”

When asked why she picked Tom, Claudia says: “The northern charm, you’re very similar to me and you’ve got very good eye contact, I love that.”

Back at the Villa Samie notices Tom’s absence and says: “I knew I liked him, but I think I like him a little bit more now.”

Next up is Casey’s date with Claudia and she tells him: “I need to get to know everyone, but coming in last night I feel like I was so drawn to you.”

Claudia then asks Casey: “What would your ideal date be?”

Casey replies: “If I could picture a perfect date and a perfect girl it would be this.”

As the evening gets going, the Islanders receive a surprise text.

Tom reads out the latest message saying: “Islanders, please gather around the fire pit immediately.”

What’s in store next for the Islanders?

Love Island airs tonight at 9pm on Virgin Media Two and Virgin Media Player.
