We have a feeling it won't be long before the cast of Love Island: All Stars is announced; names are already making the rounds in the world of social media, but we have to admit that the season two Islanders have hella big shoes to fill.

The spin-off series, which replaced this year's winter Love Island, was a raging success and reminded us why the contestants are referred to as All Stars.

Who could forget Georgia Steel and her grateful hair speech? Or how about Anton Danyluk schooling Mitch Taylor with the iconic 'Look at yourself and don't look at me. Be a man not a boy,' quote.

It also reintroduced us to series one icon, Joshua Ritchie. The northern lad took part in the dating show back when they used to chain smoke, row 24/7, throw drinks and fart in front of each other. It was the worst of times, it was the best of times.

But the Bolton boy has come a long way since then and recently took to Instagram to announce his new job.

The blue-eyed wonder posted a rather dreamy pic of him looking all kinds of dashing with the caption, 'New start @milkmodelmanagement ☄️.'

Turns out that Josh has been snapped up by the same modelling agency his girlfriend Sophie Piper works with and fans are loving the news.

One person wrote, 'MODEL 😮‍💨' with another adding, 'Your eyes are unreal 😍.'

Sophie, of course, commented on the pic, '😍 Yay welcome to the gang' and one fan couldn't help remark that Josh shares a resemblance to a certain old school heartthrob.

'You look like a young John Travolta!', a follower commented and with the coiffed hair, denim ensemble and baby blues we totally see it.

Josh made it to the final with Sophie and other than winning couple Molly Smith and Tom Clare, they are the only duo still going strong.

Side note: if you need a laugh, head over to Soph's TikTok and watch her video of Josh reacting to the Red Wedding scene from Game of Thrones. There's a reason it has over a million views.
