A source told the Mail Online that Andre will join the villa this summer. They claimed: “Andre is the perfect Love Island signing. He’s cool, calm, collected, and ready to mingle.”

The 21-year-old Birmingham City University graduate is also a co-founder of clothing brand Social Kids, which has 17k followers on Instagram. Andre only has 1.7 k followers on his own account. But that’s sure to grow if he does join the ITV2 show! Andre has also founded his own marketing company called Digital Voice, according to his Linkedin account.

The source added: “‘He knows himself but without being arrogant and producers are hoping his intellect, as well as his creativity and handsome looks will make him a favourite among the females.” A representative for ITV told ED!: “This is speculation, our lineup will be announced by us in due course.”
