While we've already seen a triangle form between Ronnie, Harriett and Jess, and a love quadrangle between Joey, Grace, Jessy and newbie Emma, there may be another romantic connection which will cause tension in the villa.

While Welsh lovers Ciaran and Nicola have already declared their love for each other, they may have a rocky journey ahead as it seems like the Love Island boy has some history with Ellie.

Speaking prior to entering the villa, Ellie revealed she shared a past with Ciaran, stating: "I have chatted to Ciaran in the past and am looking forward to reconnecting with him in Casa Amor."

Currently Ellie and Ciaran follow each other on Instagram, so could this mean that the blooming love between the Welsh lad and lass will be over before it's even begun?
