You know how the Love Island big bosses love to throw in contestants that are pals with people from other series? Well, we have a sneaking suspicion Love Island 2025 might see a sibling rock up.

We would say, 'guess who we reckon is going to be sauntering in as a bombshell?', but the headline has probably given it away.

We present to you Arda Cülcüloğlu, younger brother of Love Island 2022 winner Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.

Ekin has mentioned before that she reckons her little bro would do well on the show, in fact during an exclusive chat with heat she dished all the deets on him.

'He’s very cool, a very quirky guy. Musician, good with the ladies, smart, sexy,' she told us.

Arda isn't the classic cookie cutter Love Island type, but people can't but help comment on the similarity between him and a certain Hollywood hottie who is currently romancing Kylie Jenner.

'I shouldn’t be saying that about my brother, that’s weird,' she added at the time, 'But girls say that about him. He’s a Timothée Chalamet lookalike.’

It just so happens that one of this year Love Island girlies confessed that her 'type on paper' was none other than Timothée.

'I love a boy that’s a bit pasty, like Timothée Chalamet. I don’t mind scrawny, or a bit of a "dad bod",' Megan Forte Clarke admitted prior to heading into the villa.

It would be just like the ITV producers to throw Arda in and fans are already commenting on his Instagram asking if they will be seeing him on their TV screens on weekdays at 9pm.

'We need you on Love Island next,' one person commented on a grid post, with another adding, 'Apply for Love Island bro you will get on.'

See? Even his followers are up for seeing Timothée Chalamet from Wish taking part in the UK's fave dating show.
