Looking at Love Island contestant and Casa Amor bombshell Salma Naran’s Instagram it looks like she knew she would be heading into the villa as far back as September last year.
But is this true or is it just a complete coincidence?
The 20-year-old Irish influencer posed on a day bed at a villa in Turkey in September 2020, appearing to be hinting at the fact she was going on the ITV2 dating show.
She captioned the post “mind if I pull you for a chat ?” alluding to the classic way that hopefuls try cosy up to other contestants on the programme.

In the picture, the Islander wore a white cropped long sleeve top and denim shorts, with her curly locks styled in a messy bun.
The Love Island-esque sun lounger looked like it would fit right in at the Majorca villa and her fans went wild in the comments at the thought of her going on the show.
Salma already had a big fan base before heading into the villa, as she works as an influencer and model.

One of her 58k followers wrote: “are you hinting to us that you’re going to be on the next season of love island babes ? bcuz if so I’m all for it”
A second penned: “No I don’t mind,” followed by a string of heart-eye emojis.
While a third said: “What a coincidence”
A fourth commented: “You’re gonna be asking this a lot more now”

And a fifth put: “Full circle”
Speculating whether Salma knew she would be cast on series seven of the show, The Daily Star spoke to her best friend about whether or not this was the case.
Salma’s long-term family friend, Ionela De Almeida, 22, told The Daily Star that she thinks she only found out earlier this year after her modelling agency helped get her booked for the job.

Nail technician Ionela said: “No she didn’t know yet – it was just a coincidence.
“I think she found out like five months ago.”
The bombshell was recently been signed by a London modelling agency, that urged Salma to up sticks and relocate to London to get more glamorous jobs.
Salma was one of twelve new bombshells that entered Love Island as the classic Casa Amor week kicked off on Monday.
On her first night, the lads and the new babes played a round of Truth Or Dare at the new villa and on the second evening the villas had to play a saucy challenge.

On Monday, viewers complained that the boys were “sleeping on” Salma, with fans furious that no one tried it on with the Irish beauty.
During Tuesday’s episode, Salma was barely seen at all during the programme, which urged fans to take to Twitter to moan about her lack of air time too.
One wrote on Twitter: “Salma is Too Hot To handle attractive, Love Island don’t deserve her”
While a second said: “Salma is a premium babe!!!! The lads are very delusional”
