The Casa Amor bombshell had a claim to fame before Love Island

Just when we thought this series of Love Island couldn’t get any more chaotic, producers turned up the heat once again when they sent this year’s Casa Amor girls into the main villa to say hi to the boys and show the OG girls exactly who their partners will be getting up close and personal with in the second villa.

Predictably, the Love Island 2025 boys didn’t waste any time in cracking on with the new girls and we have a feeling that we could see record-breaking numbers of bombshells being brought back to the main villa.

One of the Casa bombshells that’s made a big impression is 21-year-old Liverpudlian lass Lucy Quinn and it turns out that in true Love Island fashion, she’s got a very famous relative.

Lucy’s uncle is none other than Ray Quinn, who rose to fame as a child star on the Channel 4 soap Brookside in the early before becoming a household name when he took part in The X Factor in 2006.

He’s also appeared on TV shows like Dancing On Ice and Hollyoaks, released a number one album and starred in theatre shows like Dirty Dancing and Legally Blonde.

Lucy let slip that she was related to Ray in a pre-villa interview she was asked, ‘What’s the one thing people are most surprised to learn about you?’ She replied, ‘Ray Quinn is my uncle!’

Not a bad claim to fame…

After arriving as a bombshell, Lucy has made a play for Tommy Bradley after admitting she had her eye on him.

‘I think he’s just a lovely lad and he’s got good morals. I’ve been watching at home with my mum and dad. My dad said, “I think you should pick him.” So I want to listen to my dad on that one,’ she said before entering the villa.

When asked about her type on paper, she added, ‘I love a pretty boy. Someone who looks after themselves more than me; with a sharp hairline and Turkey teeth.

'I like someone who is tall, tanned, and has dark hair… not too much to ask! Also if I had to be picky, I like light eyes.’
