Love Island star Zachariah Noble looked totally different before he made his bombshell debut on the hit ITV2 dating show last week.
Basketball player Zach became the very first bombshell to join the new summer series – and it’s fair to say his entrance ruffled a few feathers.
The South-East London hunk, whose sister is I’m A Celebrity star Snoochie Shy, got plenty of the ladies talking thanks to his 6ft3 build and tatted-out bod.

However, before heading off on his summer of love, the 25-year-old looked worlds away from the villa hunk viewers have since become totally smitten with.

Prior to his reality TV debut, he shared a throwback snap on Instagram – with Zach revealing he has been embarking on a “fitness” journey.
In the old photo, a still handsome Zach posed for a mirror selfie while sporting longer hair and a bushier beard.
He then included a more recent picture – which showed off his impressive fitness transformation.

Zach wrote in the caption: “Still got a hell of a way to go, but it’s never been about the end goal. The journey is what matters.”
He also shared a series of throwback snaps last year – flaunting his bulging biceps after a workout at the gym.
“To the boy that started this journey, ‘you’ve done well bro.’ And to the man that’s gonna finish it, ‘The works only just begging’. Let’s work,” he wrote alongside the inspirational snaps.

The images of course went down a treat with Zach’s friends and fans, who rushed to the comment section to heap on the praise.
One wrote: “Solid core. Motivating to see thanks for sharing.”
Another added: “Be nothing but proud of yourself, I’ve seen the weight you come from. Highly proud of you and the person you’re also blooming into. More life (sic) and love, stay shining.”

A third agreed and gushed: “Now that’s a transformation and a half!”
Since making his entrance last week, Zach has already caused plenty of drama on the show.
On his first night in the villa, he whisked away Catherine Agbaje, 22, on a romantic date and eventually chose to couple up with her.
However, Zach found himself in a bit of a pickle when he kissed Molly Marsh, 24 – causing an uproar from his fellow islanders, and viewers.
