Love Island fans went wild as Aidan's younger brother Kavan arrived in the villa as a bombshell during Thursday night's episode.

Electrician Kavan, 21, is the younger brother of 23-year-old property broker Aidan. 

And it appears the siblings have a very similar type as Kavan enjoyed a date with the girl he was originally coupled up with, Ellie, after she was 'dumped' from the villa.

Kavan arrived alongside fellow bombshell Priya, who also dated Samraj. 

Ellie had been pursuing a connection with Aidan, but was left devastated when Yasmin and George chose her and Samraj to be dumped on Wednesday.

Viewers saw Ellie and Samraj seemingly dumped from the villa, but as the episode came to a close, the pair learned their journey on the show was far from over.

While the Islanders still had no idea about Ellie and Samraj's fate, the pair enjoyed romantic dates with the new bombshells.
