Love Island producers really aren’t messing around this year, are they? Just days after Megan Forte Clarke and Remell Mullins were sent packing after a brutal public vote, two new bombshells, Ryan Bannister and Billykiss Azeez, entered the villa with their sights set on the Islanders.

Sadly though, Ryan wasn't quite as successful as he probably hoped and was dumped after just 24 hours after failing to spark a connection with any of the girls.

Following his short stint in the villa, here’s everything you need to know about Ryan…
