Before his appearance on Love Island, Marcel Somerville (aka Rocky B) was best known for his part in 10-piece boyband Blazin' Squad, but then he turned up on Love Island 2017 and we got to know him a bit better.
Marcel left the villa in a couple with Gabby Allen, but their relationship all went wrong in the outside world when he cheated on her while they were on holiday together. We love you, Marcel, but that was not cool. He married model Rebecca Vieira in 2022 and they share a son together, but Marcel is now single once again after separating from his wife.
Following their breakup, Marcel is heading back into the villa for a second shot at love on All Stars 2025. It's been almost eight years since he was last on the show so here's everything you need to know about him if you need to jog your memory.
