This year's Love Island contestants in their very first Instagrams vs now
Tactical grid clean up, anyone?
Love Island 2021 is literally within touching distance (roll on Monday) and if you hadn't already noticed, we're obsessed. Before the new season arrives, we found all the contestants on Instagram and put our thumbs to good use as we scrolled alllllll the way down to their very first posts. While some of the new Islanders look v different, it's obvious a few of them have done a tactical clean up of their grids – tbh, if we were going on the most watched series of the summer, we probably would too.
Faye in 2019
Faye doesn't look too different in this snap from 2019, so let's hope she shares a throwback for us to see when she gets out of the villa.
Toby Aromolaran now
Age: 22
Hometown: Essex
Occupation: Semi-Professional Footballer
Tobias in 2018
Tobias clearly hasn't aged at all in the three years since this snap, we wonder what his skincare routine is...
Chloe Burrows now
Age: 25
Hometown: Bicester
Occupation: Financial Services Marketing Executive
Brad in 2017
Tanned. Shirtless. Pout on point. Looks like Brad was always destined for Island life.
Shannon in 2018
We can totally imagine that red dress making an appearance at the fire pit.
Jake Cornish now
Age: 24
Hometown: Weston-super-Mare
Occupation: Water Engineer
Kaz in 2017
Fashion blogger Kaz is clearly always on trend. We wonder if she's packed that swimsuit for her stay in the villa?
Hugo in 2010
Although this pic was posted in 2014, a bit of quick math reveals this snap of Hugo is actually from 2010, making him just 13!
Liberty Poole now
Age: 21
Hometown: Birmingham
Occupation: Waitress & Marketing Student
Liberty in 2019
Liberty is giving us *very big hair vibes* in this pic from 2019.
