There have been some interesting bombshell entrances on Love Island<\/a> over the years, from emerging out of a clam shell, sending a cheeky voice note or simply asking to be met on the terrace, but nothing prepared the Islanders for bombshell Uma\u2019s entrance.<\/p>\n

During last night\u2019s episode (Wednesday 5th June), the girls were instructed to place a blindfold over the boys and then sent up to the terrace, what they didn\u2019t know is that Uma would be strutting her stuff and giving each of the boys a peck on the lips.<\/p>\n

All the Islanders<\/a> were shocked at the entrance and some may have been more seething than others when Uma took Ayo Odukoya<\/a> to the hideaway!<\/p>\n

Viewers will have to tune in to find out what Uma has in store for her time in the villa, but in the meantime here is everything you need to know about the new bombshell.<\/p>\n
