The cast of LOVE Island may be on the fast track to fame – but for many it’s not their first brush with celebrity.
Several of the girls have already been in relationships with big names, as we learned on Monday night’s show.
The stars were asked if they’ve ever dated a celebrity – and the answers were pretty interesting indeed…
Lana Jenkins

As Lana revealed on Love Island last night, she had a romantic lockdown with I’m A Celeb’s Owen Warner.
The news emerged during a round of the Never Have I Ever game where islanders were asked to spill their celebrity romances (but not their drinks).
Speaking about the Hollyoaks hunk, Lana, 25, said: ‘We had a great relationship.
“We had a lockdown relationship so we spent a lot of time together and then when we broke up.
“We ended amicably, so I have nothing bad to say about our relationship and our time together.”
Financial adviser Ron Hall, also 25, who is partnered with Lana, seemed less impressed.
He complained: “So I’m basically competing against someone who just came second in a huge show and who’s an actor and works in finance? Yeah, sick. That’s great.”
Tanya Manhenga

Tanya said she had dated a famous football player – who she didn’t name – and a rapper – who she immediately did.
After drinking during the game, the 22-year-old science student described a bit.
He said: “Mine was a footballer and then the other one was a rapper. It was the Not3s.”
The 24-year-old Londoner’s real name is Lukman Olanrewaju Odunaike but he is better known as Not3s – pronounced ‘Notes’.
Addison Lee’s song (Peng Ting Called Maddison) was released in 2016 and became a viral hit.
Zara Deniz Lackenby Brown

With the best will in the world, you’re not likely to call this a ‘celeb date’ – but Zara, 25, was still drinking.
She told the assembled stars: “I’ve dated an athlete before… a famous athlete. I’ve kissed Usain Bolt.”
Bolt, of course, is a legendary Jamaican sprinter who was so fast that he once ran as fast as 28 mph.
Ron was first out of the blocks with the obvious joke, asking, “Was it over quickly?”
Olivia Hawkins

Former Bond girl Olivia appeared alongside Daniel Craig and starred alongside Jason Statham.
However, she once went on a date with someone much closer to the show – Jack Fowler.
She was seen on a speed date with the lad who appeared in the 2018 series of the show, which was won by Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham.
During the speed dates, Olivia, 27, revealed she was a keen dancer, relaxed and enjoyed partying in Brighton.
He also spoke to Chunkz, Yung Filly and Harry Pinero on Footasylum’s Does The Shoe Fit?
