It\u2019s very nearly time for the fourth and final heats of Celebrity MasterChef<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the past few weeks, an array of <\/span>celebrity contestants<\/span><\/a> have been doing their very best to impress judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace with their culinary skills.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, the latest cohort of five famous faces will be heading into the famous kitchen, hoping to win a spot in the semi-finals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Among them will be Love Island<\/a> star Luca Bish, who appeared on ITV\u2019s dating show last year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Will his past career as a fishmonger give him the edge on the show? We\u2019ll have to wait and see \u2013 but in the meantime, here\u2019s what you need to know about the reality star. <\/span><\/p>\n

Love Island fans will already be very familiar with Luca, who headed into the famous Majorcan villa last summer, eventually coupling up with Gemma Owen, the daughter of football star Michael Owen.<\/div>\n
\n
The pair made it all the way to the final, eventually coming in second place, with co-stars Ekin-Su Cu\u0308lcu\u0308log\u0306lu<\/a>\u00a0and Davide Sanclimenti taking home the \u00a350,000 prize.<\/div>\n

Once the show had ended, Luca and Gemma\u2019s relationship lasted three months before they called time on their romance.<\/div>\n

\u201cWe have been on such a journey together and have made some amazing memories which I will treasure,\u201d Luca said in a statement posted on Instagram. \u201cI can\u2019t thank everyone enough for all their support for us as a couple during and after Love Island.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Luca previously worked for his family\u2019s fish wholesale company MCB Seafood, which could give him a head start in any potential seafood-based challenges. These days, though, he is a full-time influencer.<\/div>\n

When is Celebrity MasterChef on TV?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The latest heat of Celebrity MasterChef begins on Wednesday 23rd August<\/strong>, with further episodes then following on Thursday and Friday.<\/p>\n

Luca will be competing against the likes of Strictly Come Dancing professional Dianne Buswell and Black Eyed Peas star Apl.de.ap.<\/p>\n
