Dare we say it? This year's Love Island Casa Amor bombshells brought the biggest, erm, BOOM in Casa Amor history. Usually, more than three quarters of these fast-moving newcomers fade into the background if they don’t make it back to the main villa. But this year, Casa Amor didn’t just make a splash – they practically invaded, with several bombshells quickly cementing themselves as Love Island 2025 main characters. In fact, three Casa alumni made it all the way to the final – with Cach Mirjah Mercer even bagging the crown – and northern lad Ty Isherwood claiming fourth place alongside Angel Swift.
But what’s Ty been up to since heading home? Is he still loved up with Angel? And, seriously, how can any male Islander be that hot, kind, and emotionally intelligent? We’ve got your answers – and, of course, his socials, because we know that’s what you’re really here for, you spicy lot.
