Things are about to explode big time on ‘Love Island’, as not one or two, but 12 new bombshells are set to drop in.
And the twist is set to be especially brutal for Jack Fincham, as his ex-girlfriend will be among them.
While it had been previously rumoured his ex Keeley Maguire would be entering the villa, it turns out it is another of his former flames, Ellie Jones, who is set to test him and girlfriend Dani Dyer.
However Jani fans should not worry too much, as it seems 22-year-old Ellie isn’t keen on rekindling things with her ex.
“When I look at him, I do still think there is something there but I would never go back there,” she said.
After dating Jack on-and-off from August 2016, things cooled between them when they decided they would be better off as friends, and they have kept in contact.
“We weren’t in an official relationship but we spoke about it, would go on dates and kept trying to make it work but it wouldn’t,” she said. “I met his brother and mates.
“I actually spoke to him as a friend about two days before he went into the villa and had no idea he was going on the show!”
She continued: “I don’t know how he’ll feel when he sees me walk in. I don’t know if he’ll be angry or shocked but we do get on so hopefully it won’t be an issue.”
Replicating last year’s Casa Amour twist, Ellie will be joined by five other new girls, who will then join the existing male residents in a second villa.
In scenes to air on Thursday’s show, six new male Islanders will then arrive at the current villa to live with the old female contestants.

I was asking him all about ‘Love Island’ but it was a long time ago and I never would have dreamed back then that I would now be going on the show.”
