Who is Ben Holbrough and when is the model joining Love Island 2025?

BEN Holbrough not only loves to show off his six pack on social media, he says he’s prepared to go all the way in the famous villa.

He has even worked out a plan of action for if and when he gets some action on the show — here’s everything we know about him.

Who is Ben Holbrough

Ben Holbrough is a private hire taxi driver and model from Gloucester.

He’s already admitted he’s not afraid of having a cheeky romp on Love Island 2025.

The 23-year-old is one of the latest batch of singletons looking for love on the ITV2 dating show.

Not only is he up for getting down and dirty on Love Island, Ben has even worked out a cheeky way to hide his bedroom antics.

He said: “I can never say never, you know, you gotta take every day as it comes.

“Who knows if there’s a girl and I’m sharing a bed with her and she’s sexy… it could get carried away.”

The 6ft 2in model added: “The hideaway is there for the taking as well, so we’ll wait and see.

“I’ve already told my family that I will try and keep it as PG as possible, because I have my niece watching, so I do need to make an effort to keep it PG. 

“But then again, there’s nothing wrong with just putting a quick cover over, so I could just do that and people will think we’re just having a quick cuddle, and that that is all it was.”

But he would also go to great lengths to avoid cheating:

“If I’ve got loyalty to a girl, I would do my absolute best to go and sleep outside on my own.

“But if we’re kind of 50/50, and there’s five new girls coming in, it’s going to be hard not to just, you know. 

“Basically, I’ve got to go and say hello, we’ve got to get to know each other, so at least we’ll see when we’re there I guess.”

Ben regularly shows off his six pack on social media in mirror selfies.

His Instagram already boasts over 14k followers as of June 9, 2025 — a number that is expected to skyrocket during his time on the show.

In a video on his Star Now modelling page, Ben said: “My main line of work is modelling, which I’ve been doing for about five or six years now.

“But when I’m not doing that, my hobbies are either going to the gym or playing football.”

Ben already has a connection to the world of reality TV — he’s followed on Instagram by Married At First Sight star Lacey Martin.

When is Ben Holbrough joining Love Island 2025?

Ben is in the starting lineup for the show’s 12th season, which kicks off at 9pm on Monday, June 9, 2025.

He’s one of the main batch of contestants entering the Love Island villa at the very start of the series, instead of joining the cast as a bombshell later on.
