LOVE Island contestants might not be guaranteed long-lasting romance from their time on the show – but this year’s crop will be walking away with impressive tans.
This Islanders have already been lapping up the sun in Majorca for three weeks and many have seen their skin dramatically change colour. Here are the best tan transformations of 2022…
PAIGE THORNE
Hailing from Wales, seeing so much sunshine has been a real treat for Paige Thorne.
The 24-year-old paramedic entered the villa in a bright pink bikini with a risk that her skin could end up matching.
But three weeks on and Paige is sporting some seriously darker skin and significant tan lines.
Commenting about her new look on Twitter, one fan quipped: “Paige is NOT just Welsh, that is one crazy tan she has and the Welsh in general just don’t go that colour!!”
LUCA BISH
Luca Bish’s physique was already turning heads when he arrived in the villa thanks to his array of tattoos, comprenant un tribute etching to his sister across his stomach.
But the fishmonger, 23, has now stepped things up a gear thanks to his new golden glow.
Luca hasn’t overdone it like some of his fellow Islanders but whether or not he leaves the villa with Gemma Owen on his arm, it will be a bronzed arm.
TASHA GHOURI
Tasha Ghouri was a typical English rose when she made her entrance in the Île de l'amour villa.
Being the only blonde, her fair hair and pale skin ensured she stood out among the other girls.

But while getting close to love interest Andrew Le Page and more recently Jacques O’Neill, Tasha has also been busy topping up her tan.
DAVIDE SANCLIMENTI
Arguably, Italian stallion Davide Sanclimenti did not need the Spanish sun to top up his tan.
The business owner, 27, was already brown enough when he entered the villa…but that hasn’t stopped him from upping the ante.
Davide now has a tan to rival Dickinson’s Real Deal star David Dickinson after lying in the sun ALL DAY. And it hasn’t gone unnoticed.

Agreeing, un autre ajouté: “Davide is just here to tan, workout and secure his boohoo man deal.”
INDIYAH POLACK
Indiyah Polack didn’t have the greatest start to her Love Island story after being coupled up with Ikenna Ekwonna.
Le flic KILLER Wayne Couzens était un inadapté tordu qui a utilisé son uniforme de police de confiance pour dissimuler sa «véritable déviance sexuelle», they seemed a good match but the spark just wasn’t there.
Following Ikenna’s exit from the villa last week, things have begun hotting up with Dami Hope and they are now going from strength-to-strength.
