Love Island's Casa Amor boy Cach has a reality TV past – did you recognise him?
Before his arrival in the villa, Cach appeared on Are You The One? UK, which aired back in 2022 on MTV.
He was 20 years old at the time and competed under his real name, Cacharel.
Cacharel was introduced on the show as a student from Acton, West London, who was studying in Nottingham.
Alongside his studies, he also worked part-time as a children's instructor, model and dancer, with ambitions of opening dance schools around the world.
In his original cast profile, he described himself as an 'old soul' who tends to date older women.
He revealed he'd already had two long-term relationships, but said he had never experienced 'that feeling' of finding the one.
He added: 'I'm a romantic at heart,' as he joined the search for his perfect match.
Are You The One? UK saw a group of singles enter a house to find their scientifically chosen matches, with a £200,000 prize fund on the line if they correctly paired up by the end of the series.
Cach was one of ten men taking part in the matchmaking experiment.
Three years later, he's returned to the screen under a shortened name — and this time, it's for Love Island's Casa Amor.
But Cash isn't the only boy who's flirted with fame before.
Love Island fans left feeling 'sick' after last night's snogging challenge
Boris Vidović previously appeared on a Slovenian reality show, where he said he "doesn't believe in finding love on TV".
Model Boris, 28, who is currently attempting to turn heads in the ITV2 villa, was a contestant on Kmetija (The Farm) in 2024.
The series saw contestants live and work on a farm while competing for a cash prize.
At the time, Boris said he was taking part in the show for 'a new experience' and hoped to use the prize money to travel to 'exotic destinations'.
However, in an interview ahead of filming, he expressed doubt about romance on screen.
When asked about falling in love on reality TV, Boris told 24UR: 'I don't believe in it. I don't even think about it.'
He also stated that he did not approve of nudity in front of the cameras.
During his appearance on Kmetija, Boris described himself as 'communicative' and someone who 'swears by positive energy and laughter".
He had no prior experience working on a farm or caring for animals but said he was not concerned about the challenges.

Love Island viewers left unconvinced by Harrison's emotional exit speech
The Derby lad exited the villa in last night's tearful episode (July 18). Harrison Solomon's departure from Love Island has prompted criticism from fans after his tearful speech in last night's episode. The 22-year-old footballer made the drawn out decision to leave the show of his own accord, without being dumped or voted out by the public. His unusual decision on July 18 came as the latest bombshell of the series, Angel, entered the villa after the recent challenge. The Islanders were tasked with ranking their favourite lads, with Ty being ranked first. Given that Ty was currently paired with Lauren, following a dramatic recoupling where Harrison persuaded Toni to take him back, this meant Lauren was dumped. She received a harsh text instructing her immediate departure. But she encouraged Harrison to accompany her in leaving, and even pledged to wait for him outside the villa, reports OK!. Harrison then expressed to her that he didn't want to make any rash decisions and needed time to ponder over it. He then spent most of the subsequent day in the villa before ultimately informing the rest of the group about his decision to leave. However, viewers were quick to express their dissatisfaction with the Islander's long and emotional exit speech, which consumed nearly 10 minutes of the episode. Some questioned the authenticity of Harrison's speech while others accused the show of staging the entire scenario. Other fans thought it was unfair that Harrison's exit got so much screen time while other dumped Islanders were handed a swifter exit. One individual took to social media to express their thoughts on the matter, stating: "This apology has producers written all over it. It's sounding like a GCSE exam answer, point evidence explanation." Another person chimed in, commenting: "I hate how they made this episode all about Harrison leaving I feel like that part should of been 2 minutes MAXIMUM." A third person shared their annoyance, replying: "Bit peeved at so many previously islanders - who didn't even do half the things Harrison did - basically got the 'you're dumped, bye' treatment, whilst he gets THIS." Echoing the sentiment, someone else remarked: "Did we really spend nine minutes on his exit ". Another viewer pointed out an interesting observation: "It's just wild that Harrison used Cach's advice and exact own words right back to Toni." And one viewer speculated that the whole situation had been orchestrated as a PR stunt for Harrison. They said: "PR at its finest... Harrison is a rebrand master lol, he came in, had his fun, did damage and gets to leave a noble man who learnt and did the right thing in the end and gave us years and vulnerability, genius." Love Island continues on Sunday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.

Revealed: Press officer who backed Palestine Action's fight against ban is celebrity author's privately-educated daughter who wore £6,000 gown to debutante ball
She once wore a £6,000 couture gown to one of the world's most glamorous debutante balls, rubbing shoulders with royals and Hollywood royalty. But now, Georgie Robertson, the daughter of a bestselling author and a celebrity human rights barrister, is making headlines of a very different kind. The 32-year-old former Labour aide has emerged as a backer of Palestine Action's fight against the controversial organisation being proscribed by the Government under the Terrorism Act. The same woman who dazzled Paris society at the exclusive Crillon Ball in 2009 - an event Tatler calls 'the world's most glamorous debutante ball' - is now helping to coordinate press coverage for the radical movement whose members have been arrested for staging civil disobedience across the UK. Georgie is the daughter of outspoken author Kathy Lette and eminent KC Geoffrey Robertson. In her youth, she was photographed posing for Tatler and mingling with the international elite, including Lady Kitty Spencer, Clint Eastwood 's daughter, and even Indian royalty. Writing about her experience at the Crillon Ball, Robertson once described a weekend of 'an endless flurry of hot hair rollers, make-up, trying on diamonds, couture fittings and fashion shoots.' She called the event a 'fairytale' where 'the aristocracy rub sequinned shoulder pads with the celebritocracy.' She added she had 'shared giggles and gossip' with fellow debutantes, including Angelica Hicks, the great-granddaughter of Lord Mountbatten. Other glamorous outings followed. Robertson attended the Elle Style Awards and the premiere of Blue Jasmine, starring Cate Blanchett, in 2013. Privately educated at Queen's College in central London, she later veered sharply leftwards, becoming involved in Labour politics during Jeremy Corbyn's leadership. She even stood for the position of Women's Officer for the London Young Labour committee, pledging to 'organise against patriarchy and all other forms of oppression.' Georgie worked in Corbyn's team when he was Leader of the Opposition and was later elected as a Labour councillor in Camden, north London. However, following Corbyn's departure, she was caught up in a legal row with Sir Keir Starmer's Labour Party over an alleged leak of an internal antisemitism report. The case was dropped last year. Her high-society connections remain intact with her social media showing her at the Cannes Film Festival and pictured with celebrities including Tim Minchin and Kylie Minogue. But it is her latest role that is causing a stir. Earlier this month, as Palestine Action fought its proscription in court, Robertson appeared to breach legal rules by posting a photograph from inside the Royal Courts of Justice. The image, which shows Mr Justice Chamberlain presiding over the case, was captioned: 'Nearly 9 hours so far, waiting with baited breath.' Taking photos inside a courtroom is a criminal offence. Yet just 24 hours later, she was back briefing journalists, this time on behalf of Defend Our Juries (DOJ), a new left-wing pressure group backing Palestine Action. The campaign, which Robertson described as an 'Orwellian nightmare,' encourages civil disobedience in defiance of the Government's ban. Her mother, Kathy Lette, once joked about her daughter's dramatic transformation, quipping that Georgie had gone 'from one extreme to the other, from Marxism to Marie Antoinette.' The Home Office's decision to outlaw Palestine Action last Saturday has already led to a wave of arrests. More than 70 protesters have now been detained during two weekends of coordinated demonstrations. In London alone, 41 people were held for showing support for a proscribed group, with some carrying cardboard signs reading: 'I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action.' At a DOJ protest in Central London last weekend, supporters once again gathered with handmade signs, despite warnings from police. Similar events took place in Manchester and Cardiff. Greater Manchester Police arrested 16 people, while South Wales Police detained 13 protesters in Cardiff city centre. The Met said arrests were made for breaches of the Terrorism Act, including 'supporting proscribed groups through chanting, wearing clothing or displaying articles such as flags, signs or logos.' Despite the escalating crackdown, Palestine Action's founder Huda Ammori has called on activists to continue with 'organised civil disobedience.' The movement shows no signs of slowing down — and with Georgie Robertson now a central figure in the public campaign, it seems the girl who once sparkled in Parisian ballrooms has found a very different kind of spotlight.

Elizabeth Hurley buried in a coffin in teaser for new reality show on Channel 4
Actress Elizabeth Hurley is seen lying in a coffin in the ground in a first-look teaser for a new immersive reality series on Channel 4. The Inheritance sees 13 strangers summoned to a stately home to compete for part of the fortune left in the will of Hurley's character 'the Deceased'. Advertisement In a new clip Hurley, 60, is seen lying in her grave surrounded by mourners and items of value, as she says: 'I'm dying to see what happens.' Overseeing the stipulations of the Deceased's will is her executor, Robert Rinder, a criminal barrister who fronted the ITV show Judge Rinder. To win the money the players need to fulfil a series of final requests, as stipulated in the Deceased's will. However, only one player can claim the money gained in each request, so it's up to one of them to persuade the others that they alone deserve the cash they earned together. Advertisement Hurley is most known on the big screen for playing Vanessa Kensington in the Austin Powers films and has also starred in 2000's Bedazzled and TV series Gossip Girl. The Inheritance is a 12-episode series co-produced by Studio Lambert and GroupM Motion Entertainment. Transmission details are yet to be announced.
