The countdown is on...

There's only a week to go for the summer of love to hit our screens.

But who will be the next Tommy and Molly Mae or Millie and Liam?

Can you pick out this years winner from the first pictures released?

Flying the Irish flag we have Dami Hope!

Name: Dami Hope

Age: 26

From: Dublin

Occupation: Senior Microbiologist

Dami is hoping not to cause trouble when he enters the villa but he believes "sometimes you don’t intentionally cause trouble - but it happens"

Fingers crossed he'll have the luck of the Irish!

Next up is Paramedic Paige

Name: Paige Thorne

Age: 24

From: Swansea

Occupation: Paramedic

Paige is looking to "break out and broaden her horizons" in the Love Island villa.

In her home town of Swansea there is no one to find and she believes:

"Love Island just brings everyone together for me. I haven't got to go out and I haven’t got to swipe. So, hopefully they can just come to me now!"

22-year-old Liam has his bags packed and is heading to Mallorca

Name: Liam Llewellyn

Age: 22

From: Newport, South Wales 

Occupation: Masters Student (Strength & Conditioning)

Liam thinks "Love Island is a great opportunity to meet someone, you’re in with a load of different types, so you can get to grips with what you really like about people."

Liam wears his heart on his sleeve and isn't afraid to pay a girl a compliment.

Will dancer Tasha have the moves to impress?

Name: Tasha Ghouri

Age: 23

From: Thirsk

Occupation: Model & Dancer

Tasha describes herself as a girls' girl but as it's a dating show she'll have to step on toes.

Previously her life has been a shambles but the model/dancer claims:

"This is an opportunity for me to find ‘the one’ and have a great summer at the same time."

London lady Indiyah will find herself at the firepit this summer

Name: Indiyah Polack

Age: 23

From: London

Occupation: Hotel Waitress

What will Indiyah bring to the villa?

"I feel like I’m going to bring a lot of flavour and vibrancy. I feel like I’m quite a down to earth person, so it shouldn’t be an issue to meet a lover or a friend."

Davide - our first ever Italian stallion!

Name: Davide Sanclimenti

Age: 27

From: Rome, Italy (lives in Manchester)

Occupation: Business Owner

Davide is certain he will win girls over with his Italian charm.

"I’m good looking and I’ve realised since I first arrived in Manchester, a lot of English girls actually love me."

Who will Gemma pull for a chat?

Name: Gemma Owen

Age: 19

From: Chester

Occupation: International Dressage Rider and Business Owner

Gemma has competed for Great Britain in dressage since she was 11 and describes herself as "fun, flirty and fiery."

"I am open to finding love, I’m wanting to have a really fun summer. I was seeing someone and then that didn’t work out so I thought, 'Why not?'"

Next up looking for love is Ikenna

Name: Ikenna Ekwonna

Age: 23

From: Nottingham

Occupation: Pharmaceutical Sales 

Ikenna thinks he is at the age where he could find love after being in one past relationship.

"Hopefully, I’m going to bring spontaneity and excitement.

I’m not really shy to speak to people and I don’t really care too much about what people think."

Will Andrew bag himself the €50,000?

Name: Andrew Le Page

Age: 27

From: Guernsey 

Occupation: Real Estate Agent

Singleton Andrew thinks this is the best time to give Love Island a go.

"When I’m with someone I'm very loyal, I’m a good boyfriend as when I’m with someone I’m all for them."

Who will Amber give the green light to?

Name: Amber Beckford

Age: 24

From: London

Occupation: Nanny

Amber is hoping to bring fun to the villa.

"I can definitely be opinionated so I’m not sure how that’s going to go down.

As I work with kids I have patience with kids but adults, they annoy me!"

Is Luca your type on paper?

Name: Luca Bish

Age: 23

From: Brighton

Occupation: Fishmonger

Luca prefers meeting girls out and about.

"I think when you go looking for it, it’s not as easy though, it’s like you’re too desperate for it."

"If I think you’re the one or I like you, I’ll take you out on a date but other than that, if we talk and I don’t like where it’s going - then I won’t be throwing out dates."

Love Island starts at 9pm Monday 6th June on Virgin Media Two and Virgin Media Player
