Love Island's latest bombshell, Harry Cooksey, has left viewers stunned after making a jaw-dropping confession: he's not actually looking for love in the villa.
The 22-year-old financial advisor from Surrey entered the show as a late arrival, but has now revealed his true motivations in a shock admission that's set tongues wagging.
'I'm Here for the Experience'
In a candid moment during last night's episode, Cooksey dropped his bombshell: 'Let's be honest, I'm not here to find love. I'm here for the experience and to have fun.'
The confession came during a heart-to-heart with fellow islander Jess White, who appeared visibly surprised by his honesty.
Viewers React to Shocking Admission
Fans of the show have taken to social media to express their surprise at Cooksey's revelation:
- 'Wait... isn't this supposed to be LOVE Island?' tweeted one confused viewer
- 'Finally someone being honest!' wrote another supporter
- 'This changes everything about the show,' commented a reality TV blogger
The admission has sparked debate about whether contestants should be required to genuinely seek romance to appear on the dating show.
Production Team Respond
While ITV hasn't officially commented, sources close to production suggest Cooksey's attitude isn't uncommon among contestants.
'Many islanders see this as a career move first and foremost,' revealed an insider. 'The difference is Harry's being upfront about it.'
With the villa dynamics now shaken up, viewers are left wondering how this will affect upcoming couplings and challenges.
