But Joe hasn’t done too badly himself since leaving the villa, and has been linked to a string of beauties, which included Maisie Smith
He has also overhauled his look, and transformed himself into a muscle man.
Meanwhile, Joe recently revealed the reason why the Islanders like to whisper in the villa.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun he said: “So you know every year when everyone goes ‘oh my god so and so is whispering a lot’, ‘so and so whispers’…
“I got a lot of it – ‘Joe whispers a lot’.
“You whisper because you’re so close to one another so you can hear what everyone is saying… unless you whisper! Or murmur a little bit and then noone can hear you.
“So it’s more like a faint noise, if you’re really loud they can hear it.
“You have to go to the corners of the villa basically, or get in the pool!”
