New bombshell Ella is best mates with former show star – and used to date Love Islander
NEW Love Island bombshell Ella Barnes doesn’t just have ‘history’ with Tyrique Hyde – she has a strong connection to another TWO show stars.
We can reveal the stunning blonde is best pals with series five star Belle Hassan, 25, and previously dated series seven’s Aaron Simpson, 26.
Belle is the daughter of hardman actor Tamer Hassan, while Aaron is now a health and nutrition guru.
Tonight Ella, 23, will head into the villa as one of two new bombshells and has teased she already knows footballer Tyrique.
The championship dancer and model from Kent’s arrival looks to be very bad news for Ella Thomas.
Before her huge Love Island entrance, Ella B said she plans to bring “spice and drama”.
She added: “I’m open to getting to know all the boys.
“At the moment, everyone is happy in their couples but I plan on going in there to shake things up.
“I have a feeling I could make a few boys’ heads turn, especially Tyrique because we have history.”
When asked who she will likely “go for”, Ella said: “Mitch is cute, I also have a tendency to go for footballers so Scott and Tyrique are options too.”
Sadly for fans, Ella has stopped short of revealing exactly how she knows Tyrique, but is clear her arrival will only spell trouble for him and Ella Thomas.
Meanwhile, Ella Barnes isn’t the only bombshell heading into the villa on Thursday night.
The girls’ heads are likely to turn with the arrival of Josh Brocklebank, who is best pals with Zara McDermott.
The 26-year-old financial advisor from Essex knows exactly who to make a beeline for.
“I don’t think Sammy and Jess are that strong, so I hope to make a big impression on Jess when I arrive as she’s someone I’d definitely like to explore a connection with,” Josh said.
“I’m most attracted to Jess and Kady.
“Personality wise, I think I’d be a great match for Jess. She’s so bubbly and has similar energy to me.”
Josh went on to say that he “hopes” Jess’ head will be turned when he walks through the door.
