ITV viewers stunned as bombshell Scott reveals ‘real age’ on Love Island date
LOVE Island viewers were left stunned last night as new boy Scott Van Der Sluis revealed his real age.
During his date with beautician Jess Harding, 22, the Shelbourne footballer told her they were the same age.
Jess was as surprised as anyone, exclaiming: “Shut up! You look so much older.”
And fans flocked to social media to share their surprise.
One wrote on Twitter: “Scott is only 22?? Why do they age like this????? It’s really scary.”
Another said: “Scott is definitely not 22 that’s his football age.”
A third posted: “There’s no way Scott is 22 nah.”
The bombshell is hoping to make an impact in the villa having quit his football team to find romance.
The goalkeeper shocked teammates by stepping away from the League of Ireland Premier Division side.
Former Premier League star Damien Duff, who was his manager at Shelbourne FC, joked: “I was shocked and saddened that Scott chose a villa in Mallorca full of beautiful single women over myself, the staff and the players.”
The Welsh lad, who is pals with ex-Islander Paige Thorne, made his entrance last night.
Asked what he’ll bring to the villa, he said: “Energy. I’ll bring a bit of banter, be cheeky, and I’m a flirt! very, very strong personality so if I see anything I don’t agree with, there’ll definitely be fireworks!”
