This bombshell entered the villa and immediately turned heads among the other islanders. While he gives them an eyeful, they'll son learn that there's a lot more to him than just looks. When he's not smoldering on Love Island USA,he's flipping furniture as a hobby and traveling the world. His big claim to fame is having visited a remote village in China when he was just 20 years old.

Age: 27
Hometown: Borehamwood, London, UK
Currently Lives: London, UK / Los Angeles, CA
Occupation: Fitness Model

Miguel entered the villa during the kissing challenge, which was a pretty crazy way to make a first impression. But new adventures are not new to him. The international man currently splits his time between London and Los Angeles but there's more to him than just looks and an accent. He's a foodie who loves to eat snails and previously acted in a Jean-Claude Van Damme movie. He's also a family man and is proud of the fact that his grandfather is a war hero and has a museum named after him.

Social: @connornewsum
Age: 28
Hometown:Spokane, WA
Currently Lives: Santa Monica, CA
Occupation:PR Specialist

If you can’t tell from his physique, Connor is always on the go. This athletic guy has run 7 marathons and 5 triathlons and makes a point to run his age every year on his birthday (which means he recently ran 28 miles). When he was younger he played football, baseball and basketball in high school, so fitness and athletics has always been important. Today, when he’s not jogging, he’s a certified scuba instructor and fly-fishing hobbyist. For work, he’s in video game public relations and enjoys the heck out of some Call of Duty.

Hakeem White

Social: @hakeemxwhite
Age: 29
Hometown:Kingston, Jamaica
Currently Lives: Miami, FL
Occupation:Online Fitness and Business Coach

This outgoing bombshell wears his heart on his sleeve. He’s been in love before but the ladies have never loved him back, which is hard to believe since he’s so energetic and fun. He was even the mascot of his high school and college teams (Go Florida Gators!). He even enjoys romantic comedies in his spare time, but now he’s looking for the real thing on Love Island.

Aaron Evans

Social: @aaronevans97_
Age: 26
Hometown: Marbella, Spain
Currently Lives: North Devon, UK
Occupation: Deck Hand

Does this guy look familiar to you? That may be because this isn’t his first time on a reality show. Aaron previously won Traitors UK in Season 1. Now he’s taking on an entirely new game in the Love Island USA villa. Although he won a cutthroat competition in the past, he’s a big softy. This self-professed Harry Potter nerd still has a cuddly toy Lala from the Teletubbies from when he was a year old. However, it no longer sleeps in his bed. He’s looking for someone else to fill that position.

Coye Simmons

Social: @simmons_ _14
Age: 28
Hometown: Winston-Salem, NC
Currently Lives: Winston-Salem, NC
Occupation: School District Unit Director

It quickly becomes apparent to anyone who meets Coye that he is a very tall man. At 6’8”, he has to have all his clothes and his size 17 shoes custom-made. That height came in handy in college where he was on a basketball scholarship and eventually played professionally in Germany. As if that wasn’t a big enough claim to fame, Coye is the son of rapper Shocky Shay, who rose to fame in the 1990s.

Kendall Washington

Age: 27
Hometown: San Diego, CA
Currently Lives: Dallas, TX
Occupation: Territory Manager – Medical Device Sales

So far, Kendall has been unlucky in love. He once had a breakup conversation with a girl while floating down a lazy river at a water park. Another time, he cried over a girl while at a country music concert when he saw her making out with another guy. This sensitive fella is looking for a loyal girl to share his bed with, which is no easy task since he insists on sleeping with five pillows every night.

Kordell Beckham

Social: @korde1l
Age: 21
Hometown: Houston, TX
Currently Lives: Dallas, TX
Occupation: Aircraft Fueler / Model

Growing up in a house with ten kids meant it was tough for Kordell to stand out. It didn’t help that his older brother is famous NFL wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. However, he found his way in by being a self-professed yapper. This country boy will talk your ear off and doesn’t mind getting down and dirty riding horses and doing other outdoor activities.

Robert Rausch

Social: @robert_rausch
Age: 25
Hometown: Florence, AL
Currently Lives: Florence, AL
Occupation: Snake Wrangler

Another islander for whom this isn’t his first rodeo. You may remember Robert from Season 5 of Love Island USA where he didn’t exactly find love. Undeterred, this snake wrangler is back and feels deep down that this time things will be different. In addition to animals, he loves karaoke and photography and is looking for a lady with similar interests.

Occupation: Head of PR at a tech startup

Once again we have an animal lover joining the villa, which may turn some very specific heads on the island. She currently has two dogs but grew up with possums, snakes, turtles, bunnies, frogs, cats and even more dogs! As a result of her love of animals, she's a vegetarian and has been her entire life.

Olivia Walker “Liv”

Age: 21
Hometown: Sydney, Australia
Currently Lives: Sydney, Australia
Occupation:College Student

This Australian bombshell was the first to drop on the Villa. Growing up with two older brothers and parents who were high school sweethearts left her with a clear picture of the kind of man she wants in her life. She’s an ordained minister so she’s happy to help any other couples who find love tie the knot right then and there. While it may not be the fairytale romance she’s come to enjoy from her favorite Disney movies, Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, it would certainly be a fun story to tell.

Andrea Carmona

Social: @AndreaCarmonaa
Age: 25
Hometown: Pembroke Pines, FL
Currently Lives: Pembroke Pines, FL
Occupation: Server/Singer


This bombshell came into the villa looking to shake things up but she’s far from anyone’s delicate flower. She was a tomboy growing up in her hometown and made big moves on the basketball court. She had dreams of being in the WNBA but that didn’t work out for her. Now she’s chasing another dream, finding love in Fiji.

Nicole Jacky

Social: @nicolejacky
Age: 26
Hometown: Reno, NV
Currently Lives: Sacramento, CA
Occupation: Medical Sales Representative

Nicole is a self-proclaimed nerd, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at her. For example, the tattoo on her arm reads “3-6-9,” which most people think is a reference to the song “Get Low,” but is actually a tribute to her favorite scientific theory proposed by Nikola Tesla. When she’s not working to become a DJ, she’s taking in all things Marvel, Lord of the Rings and Star Wars and she’ll be happy to tell you all about the lightsaber she had when she was a child.

Hannah Smith

Age: 26
Hometown: Concord, NC
Currently Lives: Charlotte, NC
Occupation: Bottle Server

This North Carolina girl says she loves to travel but happens to have a fear of flying and turbulence that makes that a little bit difficult. However, she managed to make her way to Fiji where she hopes to win over one of the guys. She has hyperhidrosis, which means she has sweatier hands and feet than the average person, so there will be no hiding when she’s a little nervous to chat with someone.

JaNa Craig

Age: 27
Hometown: Kailua HI / Okinawa, Japan
Currently Lives: Las Vegas, NV
Occupation: Day Trader

This islander isn’t afraid to put herself out there… but she is afraid of cats. If that’s not a dealbreaker, she says she’s looking for a man sporting some top-notch facial hair as that’s one of her biggest turn-ons. She has two body pillows, Ben and Jerry, who she cuddles with every night. While she may go for a guy with tattoos, she prides herself on not having any herself.

Kaylor Martin

Age: 22
Hometown: Pittsburgh, PA
Currently Lives: Connellsville, PA
Occupation: Graduate College Student

Kaylor is the definition of a small-town girl. She grew up in a place with a population of about 6,000 people, so she’s used to everyone knowing her business. Still, she's a big party girl who can pour out a glass of champagne using only her mouth and her go-to dance move is, of course, the worm.

Leah Kateb

Age: 24
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA

Occupation: College Student

Coming from Persian roots, Leah grew up in a household with parents who immigrated to the US from Iran. As a result, her first language is Farsi. When she’s not dropping jaws on her campus, she’s watching David Lynch films and caring for her many animals. She boasts of having three dogs, three horses and pigs. Because she loves animals so much, she’s been a vegetarian for the past 11 years.
