LOVE Island fans have already picked their “favourite” Islander after a dramatic first episode.
Last night marked the return of the hit show for its 10th series, with host Maya Jama welcoming the brand new Islanders to the villa.

In a first coupling shake-up, the girls picked their partners based on blind dating profiles, without seeing what the lads looked like.
The first coupling of the season saw Shakira Khan pair with Ben Holbrough, Meg Moore with Dejon Noel Williams, Sophie Lee with Harry Cooksley, Helena Ford with Conor Phillips, Alima Gagigo with Blu Chegini and Dublin beauty Megan Forte Clarke with Tommy Bradley.
But after just one episode fans were quick to choose their favourite couple, with Megan and Tommy already winning over viewers.
The 24-year-old, who coupled up with Tommy during the blind match, left everyone in stitches when she questioned his dating profile.
The up-and-coming actress quipped: “To be honest, I wanted to know if you did ChatGPT for that bio or what?”
The social media star sparked a reaction online straight away.
Former Islander Samie Elishi said: “Obsessed with this couple already.”
Kaci wrote: “No I love Megan already.”
Caitlin commented: “I love them, they’re my favourite couple already.”
Monique gushed: “She is my favourite already.”
Another added: “Megan is stunning.”
However, a brutal twist at the end of the episode saw bombshell Antonia Laites, who will go by Toni, strut into the villa to shake up the action from the off.
She was asked to steal one boy from an already-formed couple and chose Ben, leaving Shakira single.
Shakira now has just 24 hours to make a new connection or she risks being dumped from the villa.
‘CLAIM YOUR MAN’
And tonight, it’s Dublin-born Megan who finds herself under pressure as Shakira gets to know Tommy.
The young actress watches nervously from the sidelines as Shakira chats to Tommy.
Meg, Helena and Dejon tell her not to sit back, with Helena saying: “Claim your man.”
Megan adds, “I think I need to lipse him” before Dejon responds, “Go do it now”.
Megan decides to go for it, interrupting the chat to ask Tommy for a chat.
The pair head to the terrace, where Megan admits: “That made me a little bit jealous.”
