Love Island star Paige Thorne looks unrecognisable in unearthed social media snaps ahead of her villa debut.
The 24-year-old paramedic from Swansea is one of the new batch of singletons entering the villa on the hunt for love in the hit ITV2 dating show.
After the cast was announced earlier this week (May 30, 2022), fans of the programme have been eager to find out more about the new contestants ahead of the eighth series launch.
Paige Thorne made her debut in a series of promo snaps where the star looked stunning in a tiny white bikini, with her long brunette locks flowing past her shoulders.

She looked completely different from her younger days, with social media snaps showing Paige smiling for the camera at her high school prom.
The paramedic looked beautiful as she posed alongside one of her friends before the event, wearing a long blue sparkling gown, complete with fish tail.
Complemented by an up-do hairstyle, Paige looked amazing as she stepped out in style for her prom in the sweet throwback snap.

Brunette beauty Paige will join islanders including footballer Michael Owen’s daughter Gemma, hotel waitress Indiyah Pollack and the series first ever deaf contestant Tasha Ghouri, as the series kicks off on Monday, June 6 2022.
Paige, who describes herself as having ‘positive energy, lots of bubbly energy,’ revealed her reason for taking part in the show ahead of its launch, saying: “In Swansea there is just no-one I can find, I’ve tried and there’s just nobody there anymore.
“I need to break out and broaden my horizons and Love Island just brings everyone together for me.”
