CASA Amor bombshell Martin Akinola is set to shake up the villa this week – after heading in to meet the girls.
However, it's likely the new star will remain unfazed, thanks to his close friendship with a former Love Island star.
Six new boys, who are single and ready to mingle, joined the dating show as Casa Amor kicked off last night.
Bombshell boy Martin, 27, from Dublin, was seen chatting away to Tanya Manhenga in first-look scenes.
He seemed cool, calm and collected as he was seen getting to know Tanya, 22, who has been coupled up with hunk Shaq Muhammad since the start of the series.

The software engineer and soon-to-be reality TV star had no doubt already got the lowdown on what to expect from his pals.
Martin is close friends with finalist Dami Hope, who shot to fame alongside girlfriend Indiyah Polack last year.
The new boy revealed that Dami, 26, has already dished out advice on how to survive Casa Amor, and is rooting for him from outside the South African villa.
Ahead of his appearance on the show, Martin said: "[Dami] said, 'Do your thing, be yourself and everyone else will get to know you, and get to see why we're friends'.
"He was saying, 'You tell the boys on a night out, this is how to talk to a girl, now go and show them how it's done'."
Thanks to his close relationship with Dami, Martin already has a whole host of other Love Island celebrity followers.
Reddit's users spotted how Andrew Le Page, who is still with his girlfriend Tasha Ghouri, and Deji Adeniyi are already following and sending supportive messages to Martin.
Both the stars appeared on last year's season alongside Dami.
When Love Island shared Martin's photo to their Instagram page, the former contestants were quick to comment.
"Gowan Martin, can't wait for Sunday now," Dami had penned, while Andrew, 27, wrote: "Go on lad."

Bombshell boy Deji, 26, also wrote: "Martin, my boy."
Martin is just one of six new boys who entered the villa as Casa Amor kick-started over the weekend.
Elsewhere, energy consultant Kain Reed, 21, said he has eyes for bombshell Samie Elishi, 22, and he's not the only one.
Kain said: "If I had my choice it would be Samie, as soon as I start talking to her I think there's a good chance it could happen."
Newbie Ryan Weekley, 22, from Nottingham, also has a soft spot for the brunette beauty.
Finance student Maxwell Samuda, 23, from London said he's also keen to steal Samie from the Yorkshire boy Tom Clare.
While Martin admitted there is more than one girl that he has his eye on.
The senior software engineer said: "I don't just have one person, I've got options…"
