\nShannon Singh is the latest to be announced, joining PE teacher Hugo Hammond and beauty pageant winner Sharon Gaffka in the line up.
\nAs last year\u2019s show was delayed because of coronavirus, there\u2019s a lot of excitement around the new series and of course, in all the hopeful singletons looking for love.
\nBut who exactly is Shannon Singh?
\nWho is Shannon Singh from Love Island?
\nShannon Singh is a 22-year-old model from Fife.
\nThe multi-talented cast member also creates content on her Instagram account and livestreams games from Twitch.
\nHer Instagram handle is @shannonsinghhh \u2013 which is also the name she goes by on Twitch.
\nWhile her Instagram feed is filled with her modelling shots, you can catch her playing Call of Duty on Twitch.
\nSpeaking about her decision to join the show, she said \u2018It\u2019s a once in a lifetime opportunity. If you\u2019re lucky enough to participate in the show, why would you not? <\/p>\n
She\u2019s a self-described party girl (Picture: ITV)She also said she\u2019s \u2018hopefully [going to] meet an exciting hunk.\u2019
\nShannon is keen to stress that it isn\u2019t all about looks, however.
\n\u2018I don\u2019t feed off looks, I feed off energy, I need someone with personality. Just someone I can have fun with.\u2019
\n\u2018If he\u2019s a handsome hunk but it\u2019s like talking to a brick wall and I\u2019d rather watch paint dry, it\u2019s not going to be great.\u2019
\nA self-proclaimed \u2018party girl\u2019, Shannon said she loves going out and socialising.
\nHer career started as a glamour model for agency Atmosphere Faces at 18, which she describes as her \u2018glory days\u2019.
\n\u2018I loved those days, I\u2019ve got nothing to be ashamed of.\u2019
\nLaura Whitmore is returning to host the series after joining the show for its previous winter series, while her husband Iain Stirling will narrate.
\nLove Island launches Monday 28 June at 9pm on ITV2.<\/p>\n
