The most recent instalment of Love Island hinted at the arrival of four fresh bombshells who threaten to throw the villa into turmoil.
This follows the latest recoupling, which witnessed another bout of surprising partner swaps. While new pairings have emerged, doubts linger over their longevity.
There’s been no shortage of drama in what marks the 13th series of ITV’s popular reality dating show. Numerous love triangles have developed while one lad has found himself unable to progress beyond friendship couples.
Tensions appeared to escalate once more after a rather ‘uncomfortable’ recoupling. Yet, further heads are poised to turn as it was revealed during the latest episode (June 17) that a quartet of bombshells are incoming, reports OK!
But who is one of the new bombshells Tina? Here is everything you need to know.
Who is new Love Island bombshell Tina?

Name: Tina Rad.
Age: 25.
Job: Shot Girl.
Location: Newcastle.
Instagram account: @tina__rad__.
Tina reveals she’s searching for a ‘weird boy’ who is flirty, funny and kind-hearted. On paper, Sean appears to fit the bill, though she’ll face an uphill battle given he’s part of the only secure couple alongside Lola.
However, it appears unlikely she’ll attempt to sway him as she maintains she steers clear of confrontation. She has no obvious desire to stir up significant drama and is merely hoping to discover her ideal match.
She says: “I’m here to find love. I’m really excited about that. I’m not really a drama girl, so I’m not going in there to cause drama or make a massive deal out of things. But if someone is disrespectful or nasty, I’m not just going to sit there and accept it. I’ll have a proper conversation with them because stuff like that really irritates me.”
Originally from Newcastle, Tina’s Instagram bio describes her as “just a very vain Persian girl in her 20s”, where she has amassed a following of over 16,000 on the platform.

She has also opened up about a peculiar habit that surfaces when she’s feeling nervous or flirtatious – she finds herself constantly sticking her tongue out, though she’s at a loss to explain why.
Nevertheless, she remains self-assured, admitting she doesn’t view her appearance on the show as a competition. She adds: “I just think what’s meant for me will be for me. Strategy-wise, I think I’m a really good flirt. I’m confident in myself.
“Even if a 10/10 model walks in, she’s not going to have my personality. Nobody has my personality, and that’s what makes me stand out.”
Tina candidly admits her romantic history has been ‘awful’, and is therefore keeping her options wide open. While she has a couple of boys on her radar, she intends to chat with all of them to discover which one shares a ‘weird vibe’ with her.
Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
