The latest Love Island singleton to be unveiled by ITV bosses is 26-year-old hunk Brad McClelland.
Brad is a labourer from Northumberland who currently lives with his nana, and apparently he’s never been on a date before despite looking absolutely dashing.
The handsome tradesman has been single for two years, but he says he’s excited to be an islander and meet new people face-to-face on the show.
Discussing his entry into the famous ITV2 villa, Brad said: “I want to date face-to-face, I like meeting people. I’m easy going, laid back. Who wouldn’t want to be in a nice villa in a hot country for a while?”

When asked how his colleagues would describe him, he cheekily remarked: “They’d probably say – not lazy, as I’m energetic – I just try to get away with doing literally nothing.”
He added:” I try to make as much money as I can by doing as little as possible.”
Brad also admitted his celebrity crushes include ex-Love Islander Zara McDermott as well as influencer Sommer Ray and Megan Fox.
Brad’s social media profile is relatively small compared to previous contestants, with his Instagram page currently standing at over 3,000 followers (at the time of writing).

However, there are plenty of steamy gym photos for new fans to get their teeth into, and even Brad describes himself as a “Gym Goer & Coffee Lover”.
And it seems Brad may have already caught the eye for some celebrity admirers, as Love Island 2019 winner Amber Gill took the comments section of Love Island’s reveal photo of Brad on Instagram.
She commented; “Super cute”.
Nas Majeed, who appeared in the villa back in 2020, also compared him to previous Islander Luke Mabbott, saying: “Luke Mabbot vibes”.
This comes as the Love Island 2021 lineup has been revealed today, and Brad will be joining contestants such as beauty queen Sharon Gaffka, 25, who previously won Miss International UK in 2018.
Sharon is also an ambassador for the Young Women’s Trust, an organisation campaigning for economic justice for women.
Brad will also be joining luxury events host Aaron Francis, 24, who has royal connections as he worked at the royal weddings of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.
A third beauty to soak up the Mallorca sun is blonde bombshell Liberty, 21, who is a Nando’s waitress and undergraduate.
And other sexy singletons include schoolteacher Hugo Hammond, glamour model Shannon Singh, and water engineer Jake Cornish.
Teasing the big reveal, ITV said: “These Islanders are all single and ready to find love. We can’t wait to watch them get to know each other, date, and maybe even find the one.”
The new series of Love Island will return to ITV2 on June 28.
