Love Island fans have been left stunned after uncovering the 'real reason' Lorenzo Alessi looks so familiar. The 28-year-old business owner from Hertfordshire entered the villa earlier this month alongside 11 other singles, and Season 13 has already seen several dramatic turns after just three weeks on air.
Lorenzo's Resemblance to Mr Big
While Lorenzo hasn't been involved in any villa spats, he has certainly caught viewers' eyes. He was recently crowned 'Favourite Boy' following the first public vote of the series. But it's not just his charming personality that has fans talking—many have noticed his striking resemblance to Mr Big from Sex and the City, portrayed by Chris Noth.
Reddit users drew the comparison in a thread that has garnered over 1,000 likes. One user posted a side-by-side image of the two men and wrote: "Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees it. Looks wise and personality wise. I can't unsee it." Another viewer commented: "I see it," while a third added: "That's why he was looking so familiar!!!"
Dating Behaviours Compared
Although Mr Big is charismatic and traditionally handsome, he is depicted as a womaniser and serial dater. Viewers believe Lorenzo has been exhibiting similar dating behaviours, particularly since he has flitted between three different women in the villa. One fan contributed: "Well yes and tbh Big is kind of his aura too," while another quipped: "My Dad looks like Chris Noth so this is the death knell for my Lorenzo crush I guess."
Current Villa Dynamics
Lorenzo is presently partnered with bombshell Yasmin Hadlow, though he has been questioning their connection. This comes as his former villa flame, Jasmine Muller, is also struggling to maintain her romance with Kavan Murphy. Viewers have been championing Jasmine and Lorenzo to reconnect, but it remains to be seen whether they will make the move.
Love Island airs Sundays to Fridays at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
