Things are set to heat up for Love Island star Tyrique Hyde, as he is drawn to another of his "sexy" co-stars despite being coupled up with Ella Thomas.

The new summer series of ITV's juggernaut dating show is already proving popular, with plenty of twists after just three days at the sprawling Spanish villa. For the first time ever, both boys and girls entered the villa, while viewers were allowed to vote for which Islanders they'd like to see couple up during the first episode.

Tyrique, from Essex, currently plays as a midfielder for East Sussex club Lewes FC. The son of former Watford and Jamaica player Micah Hyde, he was part of another twist early on after it was revealed he already knows fellow Islander Ella, 23.

The 24 year old semi-professional footballer also shared a link with Molly Marsh, after the pair spotted they share matching tattoos. Tonight's episode will see him chatting with Jess Harding. He heads over to the day beds, where Jess asks him how things are going with Ella.

Tyrique replied: "Obviously, it's going well but I'm not closed off, I've said that from the jump to everyone." He then tells Jess: "You looked sexy this morning."

Jess responds: "Do you say that to every girl?" To which, Tyrique agrees. He quips: "I'm honest – I say how I feel." He then adds: "You're a good kisser."

Earlier this week, he left his fellow Islanders shocked after revealing the news that he's "lost count" of how many women he's slept with after surpassing 100. The shock confession came about during a saucy challenge, which saw the Islanders confess to some X-rated secrets.

The challenge, named 'Wary Tales', ensured the singletons wasted no time getting intimate with one another, with 11 kisses shared between them – on just their second day in the famous villa.

The girls went up against the boys during the game, with each Islander appearing through the window of the magical castle, before bursting through the drawbridge door and sliding down a slippery woodland path. While sliding, they had to grab a key to unlock the book containing a secret story on one of the Islanders.

After reciting the "wary tale", they kissed the Islander they believed the story belonged to, before all was revealed on the "magical mirror". Later, the drama continued as bombshell arrival Zachariah Noble chose to steal Catherine Agbaje from André Furtado in the first dramatic recoupling of the latest summer season. His decision left Andre single and vulnerable.

Love Island airs on week nights and Sundays at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
