New Love Islander Chuggs Wallis identifies Brad McClelland as his key competition

New Love Island bombshell Chuggs Wallis has singled out Brad McClelland as his key competition in the villa.

The 23-year-old hat business-owner from Surrey will appear in the programme on Thursday alongside fellow newcomer Liam Reardon, a 21-year-old bricklayer from Wales.

They will take two girls out on a date during the next episode of the dating show.

Chuggs said he thinks the "key competition is Brad, but I also think I'll get on with him".

"I'm excited to get to know people and just have social interaction, get to know these girls," he added.

"I just want to have fun."

Chuggs says Brad will be his key competition on Love Island

Chuggs said appearing on the dating show was a "now or never" decision.

"I’m only 23 but I’m scared of ageing. Especially as half of my last year of uni was taken away and we had so many fun plans", he said.

"With Covid and the pandemic, I feel like I’ve missed a year of my youth, so I’m really gagging to get it all back – make the most of it."

He added that Liberty Poole, Chloe Burrows and Faye Winter are the islanders who have caught his eye the most.

Meanwhile, Liam said Kaz Kamwi is "really good-looking and has a great personality".

"I’m looking forward to getting to know her. And Chloe – I like her confidence and I’m intrigued to see what she’s about," he said.

He added he is "after a new partner", and would like to find someone "fun" and "outgoing".

"It’s been a while since I’ve had a girlfriend. I’m struggling to find one", he said.

"A big thing for me is independence. I want them to want me, not need me."

Love Island continues on Virgin Media One and ITV2 at 9pm.
