And excited viewers think whoever is coupled up with Ben will be sent packing after Antonia revealed her celeb crushes.
Before entering the villa, Toni explained that she had soft spot for Bradley Cooper and Kim Kardashian's ex Odell Beckham Jr.
Discussing who she might go for, one person speculated: 'I would say whoever is coupled up with Ben or maybe Connor is probably in trouble no girls were interested in sam last year when he got dumped , possibly the girl who gets dumped has no boys interested in her as it makes no sense dumping a girl who is popular with the boys.'
A second said: 'I feel like the bombshell would go for ben or blu so i fear it might be Shakira , meg or helena.'
While a third added: 'Shakira is going home. I think she picks Ben and then Toni picks Ben dumping Shakira. Put it this way if it is her she better be coming back.'
Tonight's episode is set to start with a bang as Maya makes a huge announcement shortly after the girls arrive.
She tells them: 'This year things are slightly different. You've told me what your type on paper is, but does that match your ideal man in reality? Come and join me by the pool.'
As the girls line up, Maya explains: 'Girls, in front of you there are six love hearts and each boy has given me their dating profile which is written on each of these hearts - shall we have a look at what these boys have to offer?'
On the boards the girls see descriptions for this year's boys: Ben, Dejon, Harry, Conor, Blu and Tommy.
The girls have to decide who they'd like to couple up with based on these key stats with the boys' name, age, job and a headline, such as 'I like to play hard and work harder! I love to play, so I work very hard…', to help them decide who to pick.
Love Island shock as girl is dumped from show in most brutal launch twist EVER
After discussing the profiles and trying to work out who might be right for them, Maya counts to three and they must run to a heart, with only one girl allowed to stand by each heart.
Once the boys arrive and meet their match, it doesn't take long until they get another surprise.
Maya makes a shock return to the Villa with some huge news - someone new is already on their way.

Suddenly, the series' first bombshell Toni makes a dramatic entrance into the Villa.
The Islanders are quick to realise she's come all the way from the US as Toni teasingly says: 'Good evening UK! Surprise!'
The Islanders can't believe there's an American bombshell and there's clearly some excitement amongst the boys… and some concerns for the girls.
Maya then drops some more big news: not only has Toni just arrived all the way from the States, but she is also going to immediately steal one of the boys - meaning one girls time on the island will be cut short.

Love Island fans have been left seething as ITVX 'crashed' just minutes into the opening episode of the new series. Host Maya Jama returned to the TV villa as the show welcomed a new batch of singletons for the 12th series. However, as the stunning ladies trickled into the villa, ITV 's streaming service ITVX appeared to go down for some users. Some fans said the app was also 'freezing' as they tried to watch the bumper 90-minute launch show. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one furious viewer said: 'Anyone else's ITVX glitchy as f**k!??? Ugh every f***ing year, sort it out ITV. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A second blasted: 'Ugh!!! Was tryin to watch live but ITV is playin games with my stream so I will watch the rerun later.' 'ITVX App is shocking it keeps freezing all the time,' said a third unhappy fan.' While a fourth vented: 'Why does ITV2 keep stalling.' Meanwhile, this year's opener kicked off with the show's biggest twist yet. The ladies -Shakira, Meg, Alima, Sophie, Megan and Helena - were first to enter the villa and talk turned to the boys they could potentially couple up with. Usually the viewers are tasked with deciding who the first couples are, but this year the girls chose purely based on the boys' dating profiles. Explaining the huge change, Maya told them: 'This year things are slightly different. You've told me what your type on paper is, but does that match your ideal man in reality? Come and join me by the pool.' As the first coupling up took place, fans took to social media to vent their fury at ITV as they were left missing out on the action It comes as one Love Island star has already been sensationally dumped from the villa, before the launch show has even aired.

A source told The Sun: 'This girl will be sorely missed as was already proving to be a big character. They were absolutely gutted to leave.'

Megan Moore NAME: Megan Moore AGE: 25 FROM: Southampton OCCUPATION: Payroll specialist WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? I'd like to meet someone who is tall, with a nice tan, nice eyes and a nice smile.

I always ask guys on a night out to guess which country I'm originally from. If they get it right, they can get my number. But they never guess correctly so it works really well if you don't want to give a guy your number. I'm originally from Guinea Bissau. If they're close and I really fancy them, I'll give them my number anyway. NAME: Ben Holbrough AGE: 23 FROM: Gloucester OCCUPATION: Private Hire Taxi driver WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

Someone who is family oriented, has a lot of love to give and a lot of love to receive. Personality goes a long way. WOULD MAYA HIRE YOU FOR YOUR FLIRTING SKILLS?

NAME: Shakira Khan AGE: 26 FROM: London OCCUPATION: Construction Project Manager WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? Someone who is tall, charming, witty, with big arms, a good smile and just really funny.

I like dark eyes and I don't mind a dominant woman. WOULD MAYA HIRE YOU FOR YOUR FLIRTING SKILLS? Definitely hire. I ask girls if they want to go halves on a baby. It doesn't work, but it gets them laughing. It's an ice-breaker, not a serious question of course! NAME: Toni Laites AGE: 24 FROM: Connecticut OCCUPATION: Las Vegas Pool Cabana Server WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? I'm looking for darker hair, definitely muscular but not too muscular. Super fit. Clean hair cut. Someone that can make me laugh - I'm super outgoing. And someone that's quite active. Maybe one day we could start our own family together. I WANT TO DATE A BRITISH GUY BECAUSE...

Love Island star could be forced to leave villa as she's told upsetting news
Love Island 2025 contestant on Monday night that could lead to an early exit. New Islander Shakira was left reeling is she learned something from host Maya Jama that could put an end to her villa experience within hours. She was no doubt rattled by a twist that left her at risk of being dumped, with host Maya sharing some concerning news. Shakira was left fearing the worst when new bombshell Toni entered the villa and stole her man, Ben. With that Shakira was now single, and she was told that she was now at risk of leaving the show for good, just hours into her experience. Maya advised her that she had just 24 hours to save her place in the villa, and it could come at a cost for someone else. The Islander had to get grafting and try and couple up with another boy. While she couldn't steal Ben back from Toni, she was allowed to steal any of the other boys from the other girls. There was a catch though that could seal her fate. The person Shakira chose had to agree to pair up with her and leave their current partner. If they say no, then Shakira will remain single and will most likely be dumped from the villa in the next episode. She has just 24 hours to convince a guy to choose her over their current girl. If successful, that girl left single by Shakira stealing their man will be the one dumped from the show instead. This was no doubt worrying and upsetting for Shakira, who had just spent the day bonding with the other girls. Now she has to commit the ultimate betrayal, and if she fails she will leave the show just hours in. It's thought the scenes may have already been filmed and will air on Tuesday night. This has yet to be confirmed by ITV, but it seems someone may have already been axed from the show. It comes as Maya also shared a warning to the other girls on the show as the big twist took place. During filming, Maya dropped some big news to the girls about Shakira having to steal one of their men to stay on the series. With that she warned the girls to "keep their boys very close" if they wanted to remain in the villa, or they would have to prepare for an early exit. With that the girls were reeling over the fact Shakira now had the opportunity to take their villa time away from them, if their man was chosen and agreed to the swap. Viewers will have to watch the next episode to see if Shakira gets close to any of the other guys, and if someone else will be sent packing.
