It seems like there's a new bombshell being thrown into the Love Island villa every minute of the day on the All Stars series and producers have given just us a right treat as they're sending in not one, but two late entrants next.
No, unfortunately they haven't announced Love Island 2021 legend Chloe Burrows just yet, but there is some good news. Not only is Love Island 2020's Sophie Piper joining the cast, but winter 2023 Love Island fitlord Tom Clare has finally been confirmed as a bombshell after weeks of fans demanding he makes an appearance.
Tom raised eyebrows last time he headed into the villa when he revealed he'd only been out of a three-year relationship for three months before appearing on the ITV2 dating show and it's safe to say that he lived up to his player reputation.
Following his return to Love Island, we decided to check out what the former semi-pro footballer has been up to in the past few months.
Where is Tom Clare from?
Tom is from Barnsley.
How old is Tom Clare?
Tom is 23 years old.
What is Tom Clare's job?
Tom was a semi-professional footballer for Macclesfield FC before his original Love Island stint. Since then, he's become an ambassador for eBay and a social media influencer.
What happened when Tom Clare was on Love Island?
What didn't happen?
Living up to his playboy ways, early on Tom found himself caught up in love triangle with Olivia Hawkins and Zara Lackenby-Brown, with Zara even describing him as the "community penis". Iconic. Mean but iconic.
He also coupled up with Ellie Spence for a hot sec before Samie Elishi rocked up and well and truly turned his head. However, that didn't stop him from swapping saliva with LydiaKarakyriakou during Casa Amor week, they didn't name him 'Terrace Tom' for nothing.
Luckily for Tom, Samie forgave him and they made it all the way to the final where they came in third place.
But there is no way you can talk about Tom's villa experience without mentioning The Three Musketeers and his bromance with Casey O'Gorman.
Tom found a bond with fellow Islanders Casey and Will Young (the TikTok star, not the Pop Idol singer) and called themselves The Three Musketeers. Although in recent months it is clear that Will is no longer close to Tom and Casey, although the latter now live together and are with each other 24/7, Will is focussing on his relationship with Jessie Wynter.
What happened between Tom Clare and Samie Elishi?
They came in fourth place on the romance reality TV show and continued to date once they lived the villa.
However, just a month after they made the final three the couple split up.
What did Anna May Robey and David Saluko say about Tom Clare?
When we chatted to David Saluko and Anna-May Robey last year, they gave us all the deets on why Tom was so damn popular
"To be fair, it comes across like Tom doesn't have chat but he's actually very cheeky," David admitted.
"He's just tall. He's fit, he's nice to look at," Anna-May added.
It wasn't shown on TV, but Anna-May revealed that she too fancied Tom although they didn't spark a romance as it was more "friend vibes" between them.
What happened between Tom Clare and Georgia Steel?
When Tom posted a TikTok of him and Love Island 2018 star Georgia Steel in "matching outfits" obviously everyone jumped to the conclusion they were a couple because, why wouldn't you?
But, seeing as Georgia is now taking part in All Stars, we're going to assume they're just chums. However, who knows what could happen in the villa? It's a lawless place.
Does Tom Clare have Instagram?
Tom does have Instagram. His handle is @tomclare__.
