Two former contestants from Love Island Australia have joined the new UK series as the show's first international bombshells.

Aaron Waters, 25 from Melbourne, is a model and social media content creator who appeared on the third season of the Aussie version.

"When I was in the Love Island Australia Villa, I didn't open myself up to other opportunities that I could've possibly had," he said.

"This time round I want to be testing the waters by being open-minded and giving everyone a chance.

"In terms of my experience in the previous Villa, I went in there wanting to be myself and I can truly say I felt comfortable in myself in every way so I'd never change it."

The second bombshell is 26-year-old Jessie Wynter who comes from Tasmania and now works as a personal trainer in Sydney.

Wynter previously appeared on season two of the Aussie version and met Todd Elton, a former Aussie Rules player, but they split after the show ended.

"I'm single and have been for quite some time," she said. "I'm very lucky to live the life I lead, but it does get a bit lonely.

"All of my friends are settling down, and it's time for me to do the same. The last time I had a relationship, it was in the Love Island Australia Villa - so let's go!"

The two will be seen entering the villa on Sunday night's episode, which airs on ITV2 at 9pm.
