It\u2019s officially summer time and of course that marks the return of Love Island<\/a> once again.<\/p>\n

The new tenth season is now underway and as well as the first episode opening up with a brand new format, the reality show also landed on our screens with a surprise admission by Ella Thomas.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old model was coupled up by the public with semi professional footballer Tyrique Hyde<\/a> but to everyone\u2019s surprise, the pair already know each other. Ella confessed that she had met Tyrique in a London nightclub but to mark the series\u2019 first (very) awkward moment, Tyrique couldn\u2019t quite remember meeting her.<\/p>\n

He later stated that it was because she had blonde hair at the time but does this spell disaster from the beginning for the pair? We\u2019ll have to watch and find out.<\/p>\n

The Glasgow-based model is just one of the confirmed islanders<\/a> for the series, but who is she? She has some\u00a0famous connections and may be familiar to some people from appearing in a music video or two.<\/p>\n

But what can we expect from Ella in the villa? Read on for everything you need to know about Ella Thomas.<\/p>\n
