The first series of Love Island 2020 is now up and running, with an amazing line-up, a drama filled villa and plenty of hot singletons ready to meet their match.

Despite already losing one Islander along the way and the show's first EVER set of twins making their explosive entrance, we think it's time for some fresh faces.

And our prayers have been answered in the form of model Connagh Howard.

So let's get to know him, shall we?

Who is Connagh Howard?

Connagh is a 27-year-old model from Cardiff, who says he's the perfect Islander because, "I’m single, obviously… I’m a good laugh, fun to be around, honest and laid back. I try not to get involved in too much drama."

How old is Connagh Howard?

Connagh is 27 years old.

Where is Connagh Howard from?

Connagh is from Cardiff but doesn't normally meet girls in his area. He says, "[I] usually [find my dates] through Instagram or social media. On a night out maybe, but it tends to be online."

What is Connagh Howard's job?

Connagh is a model (obvs, can you not tell?) and he was once in an advert with Anthony Joshua. He said about the job, "I’m a big boxing fan. I was really excited to meet him. In the ad we are both training. It was pretty nerve-wracking, he’s a big boy."

Get to know Connagh more

Connagh says he likes "brunettes, a girl with nice eyes, who likes to take care of themselves. I like a girl who can do some sort of sport as I'm into sport. I'm looking for someone I can be myself with..." and he's already got his eye on Shaughna, Sophie and Siannise (does he like girls who's names being with "S" by any chance?)

But will he break up a couple to get the girl he wants? Well, "If I really like someone, I’m definitely going to make an effort, I’m not going to let the opportunity go by. But, I’m not going to try and be a home-wrecker.

"It’s hard to say that you’re not going to be attracted to more than one person, that’s the reality of it. But if I’m committed then I will be loyal."
