It seems the battle of the Ellas is about to begin.
In a first-look at tonight’s Love Island it has been revealed that new bombshell Ella Barnes has her eyes set on one islander – Tyrique.
We’ve known since Ella B was announced to be joining the show that she and Tyrique had “history” but now in a preview clip fans have seen her talking about Tyrique, saying that they have “chatted”, “kissed” and that she “saw him quite recently”.
Josh then says: “Poor guy’s just f**king settled down and now you’ve just come in, he’s gonna be like ‘agh!’”
Ella B then replies: “Nah, do you know what? I know he’s fully closed off with her but they’ve had a few bumps in the road. But with me it will be an easy ride. Me and him have history and I feel like if there’s only one person to turn his head, it will be me. It’s just gonna be the battle of the Ellas now.”

Ella B’s reveal will come after a dumping earlier on, where the couple who got the least votes as being the most compatible will be dumped immediately.

Elsewhere in the episode, the new bombshell will be seen pulling Tyrique for a chat, where she says: “Listen, you know I fancy you and I know we get on. And I know you know we get on and I know you fancy me too… It’s mad, I literally saw you a couple months ago, kissing my face.”
However, will their history be enough to turn his head from Ella Thomas, who he has been coupled up with since the very first episode of the season? Only time will tell…
