Love Island reveals shock new bombshell Angel Swift who isn't afraid to step on toes as fans speculate on latest twist

Daily Mail​2 days ago
It was another dramatic night for Thursday's Love Island after the Couple Of Sorts game caused plenty of arguments.
However the tension didn't end there as at the end of the episode Shakira received a text to reveal the game was not over.
New bombshell Angel Swift was then seen on her way to the villa in the show's latest twist.
Angel is a 26-year-old aesthetics practitioner and salon owner from Maidstone and has already revealed she isn't afraid to step on toes.
Asked whether she would break up a couple she replied: 'Breaking up another couple? That is what's going to happen, so it's quite exciting really.
'I feel like people have been getting their heads turned very easily. I do feel like I have quite a good chance of turning someone's head.'
Angel describes herself as a '20 out of 10' and already has her eyes set on one islander in particular.
She said: 'I'd like to get to know Ty and see what he's about.'
After being single for a year she is going into the villa with the hope of finding a serious relationship.
'It's an amazing opportunity to make new connections and have new experiences. I'm ready to make memories with someone, go travelling with them and fall in love,' she added.
Fans took to Twitter as they speculated over what Angel's entrance will mean as they suggested she might get the chance to steal a boy straight away.
They penned: 'I reckon this bombshell has to steal a boy straight away then the single girl gets dumped
Meanwhile others were quick to suggest it won't be long before certain boys have their head turned straight away.
They added: 'Already know Harrison, Dejon and Harry will all be over that bombshell tomorrow'; 'harrison eyeing up that bombshell as his next victim…'
'This bombshell better be for Cach and Cach only. Harrison pls do not even try';
'WHY DO THE GUYS ALWAYS GET A BOMBSHELL SEND IN SOME MEN FOR THESE LADIES'; 'They should of brought in a boy bombshell and have a boy be dumped'.
Earlier in the episode Love Island fans were left convinced exes Harry and Emma secretly plotted to win the £50k prize before entering the show after the pair spoke about getting back together.
Harry pulled Emma for a flirty chat where they discussed 'taking their house off the market if they won the show' after both hinting they are keen to rekindle things.
Despite Emma's efforts to put the girls off Harry by airing his dirty laundry in recent weeks, the public thinks it was her ploy to get him back all along.
During their chat, Harry, who was in a four-year relationship with Emma, said: 'I can't compare anyone to you. Of course I love you, I'm always going to have love for you. It was a long time, I've known you for a very long time.'
He added: 'But did we really go on Love Island to get back together?'
'Well, I didn't plan this', Emma said.
Harry added: 'Well, clearly I didn't. I think we need another recoupling, everyone's f****** wife swapping.'
Helena - who is currently coupled up with Harry - was left raging after Emma pulled her for a chat to share interest into getting back with her ex
Emma laughed: 'I didn't need to be because I'll see you at home. See you back at home in bed.'
Harry said: 'See you at home dear. Take the house off the market, won't we? I can't believe it hasn't sold. Maybe we'll just chuck a load of cash at it after this.'
Emma said: 'Well if we win, we're going to have to. 50 large, I like to stay optimistic.'
Helena Ford - who is currently coupled up with Harry - was left raging after Emma pulled her for a chat to share interest into getting back with her ex.

Abbotsley marks 25 years of village scarecrow festival

Villagers say a 25-year-old scarecrow festival "brings their community together" , with some people even starting their creations at Christmas. Lynn Norris, from Abbotsley in Cambridgeshire, said a resident introduced the idea of scarecrows to the Feast Week festivities in believed the village was the first in the area to include scarecrows and said people were often amazed by their number and size. The scarecrow festival, which typically takes place in the middle of July during Feast Week, is held in honour of St Margaret of Antioch, Patron Saint of its 13th-century church. James Dixon, 45, who moved from London 12 years ago with his wife Sonya, 50, said it was lovely being part of a community tradition."We have come to the village and been really looked after since moving here so I think it's really important to get involved in a tradition like this," he said. Andy Harris, 74, said he started off by making a Spitfire and added two more scarecrows in a nod to the famous photograph of a kissing couple taken in New York's Times Square in 1945. He previously won first prize with his scarecrow recreation of the barricades in Les Misérables and has also been a judge for the competition. "I just enjoy doing it," Mr Harris said. "I feel I'm quite artistic and like doing these sorts of things, I'm now retired so I've got time to spend a bit more time doing it and I enjoy the reactions from people who see it."

Windrush stories inspire 'exciting' quilts exhibition in Ipswich

Colourful handmade quilts created by artists whose families have connections to the Windrush movement are being exhibited in Quilt is being displayed at The Hold, in Ipswich, by community group Suffolk Windrush until the end of thought-provoking artworks were produced by local people during a series of workshops held at the Castle Hill Community Centre in Ipswich."It was real eye-opener – people were sharing their stories and helping each other," Ivy Cook, from the Ipswich Windrush Select Committee, said. "It was quite exciting seeing people discover their history, and put their history into their quilts – it was unexpected." Each quilt tells a different personal story, be it about a loved one's journey from the Caribbean to the UK, or something they have learned about their family."One person discovered her dad used to play in a band and she put that into the quilt," Ms Cook said."For her, that was exciting because she understood why her and her family loved music." The Windrush generation largely relates to people who came to the UK from Caribbean countries between 1948 and 2018, a scandal was revealed when it emerged that the government had not properly recorded the details of people granted permission to stay in the UK, with some wrongly labelled as illegal inspired one of the quilts that features in the exhibition."She built her quilt around that and what happened to the Windrush generation and that hostile environment," added Ms Cook."She got different bits of material and each one was a different colour, and she was able to put words into the quilt to reflect that."We learnt from each other about our history and our parents, so it was quite exciting."

Bobby George: My amputated toe is preserved in vodka – I walk like a monkey!

We would probably all go a bit wild if we had the money to build our own mansion. Bobby George's lies just outside Colchester, and is the house that darts built. Or, more accurately, that George built. All 18 bedrooms of it. Before he made his living from sport, George laid concrete floors and dug the tunnels that became the Victoria line. Once he had the cash in the mid-1990s, George Hall took shape and it has all of the essential trappings for a house of its size. Three floors, fishing lakes and a fully-stocked bar behind which is his amputated toe, preserved in vodka. Sorry, what? 'My toe's been on American television, two doctors talking about it,' says George. It has been there for 20-odd years, but there has been a surge of interest since publication of George's new book – Still Here, his stock response to 'how are you?' as he closes in on 80. Any darts converts from the Luke Littler age would struggle to marry George's renown with his list of honours. He was runner-up in two world championships, both BDO, but was not invited to the breakaway PDC which now dominates. He was a showman in an otherwise dowdy era, but is best known now for his prolific reality TV work, appearing on everything from Celebrity Fit Club to four series of The Real Marigold Hotel with unlikely pal Miriam Margolyes. George's toe in vodka: Essex's oddest souvenir The toe had been causing him bother. During the quarter-finals of the 1994 BDO World Championship George won a set, jumped in celebration, and broke bones in his spine upon landing. He had to wear a steel corset to make it through his semi, miraculously won, before losing to John Part in the final. In the following years his toes began to cross over one another, making it hard to get his shoes on. The first to go now sits in a small glass jar, Essex's oddest souvenir. His doctor would not let him have it in formaldehyde but he was advised vodka would do the same job. Three more toes have come off since, but tragically George was not allowed to keep them. 'I walk like a monkey now, and when I get out of the shower I look like an orangutan. I wore my body out, I overdid it. But I don't regret it. Touch wood I haven't got any organ trouble, it's all bone structure.' Is it possible to live in an 18-bedroom mansion and wear so much jewellery your nickname is the King of Bling without being flash? Somehow George is pulling it off. The house is, by his own admission, over the top. But it feels like a home, his grandkids have begged him not to sell it. You do not detect the implied superiority common to many with a massive property. When I arrive he is down by his lakes, cleaning up after a charity fishing match for Macmillan Cancer Support the day before. His wife of nearly 40 years Marie lets me in, then locates George on the big screen in their kitchen which shows live footage from various CCTV cameras. Bobby arrives a few minutes later and is chivvied along by Marie as he has a cup of tea, rolls then smokes some Golden Virginia and puts his many bracelets and rings on from a bashed-up blue velvet box. 'I'm Robert now, I'll be Bobby George in a minute.' He is a equally irritated and invigorated by the constant to-do list. Cleaning pumps, getting weeds out, cutting trees, trimming bushes. 'It's all got to be done. The maintenance is a lot. Nature doesn't stop. You can do a nice job, leave it a month and it looks like you haven't done anything. I'm not exaggerating, I think I've got 18 hoovers. They're all lined up, like soldiers on parade. 'I've got a cherry picker, I don't go up my ladder, it's dangerous.' I spot a stairlift stationed at the bottom of the grand wooden staircase. 'I don't have to use it, but it takes the pressure off.' He has not made it easy for himself in some ways. There is a wood burner in the 60ft-long living room we sit in, alongside with the bar and full-sized snooker table. 'It's messy, it generates dust but it's worth it. You can sit round a fire and enjoy it, you can't sit around a radiator. I'd rather be f------ dusty than cold.' 'I felt like the Pope' There is a dartboard here too, does he ever play for pleasure? 'I done loads of that, nearly 50 years. Walking up and down, bang bang bang, nah I don't do that now.' He comes from a darting tradition as much about entertainment as victory. His career was built on exhibitions, nights of fun and trick shots with an MC around the country. Better, he thought, than competing for the era's often measly pots. 'There's two roads in darts, if you go down the tournament road there's only one winner. You'd go to Denmark for a tournament, pay for a flight, pay for a hotel for three nights and if you win you'd get £300 and a bunch of flowers. Who wants a bunch of flowers? I'd rather have £310. All that work to get a title, but you can't go in a shop and pay for something with a trophy, you've got to have the bees and honey.' 'I don't think Littler has much personality' These days he wonders if players feel the same duty to entertain. 'The fun has gone out of it a bit, 180 bang, boom boom boom. I think it's boring.' He also fears the presentational flair he brought to darts has spiralled. 'The crowds, it's horrendous the noise. But without them you're not going to have the prize money. The players have learnt to play under those conditions. 'It's probably my fault, I invented the music for walk-ons, dressing up with glitter and all that. It changed the game. I didn't think it would, I wouldn't have believed it. But without it now it would be boring. A lot of players didn't like it, they said it was a circus. But it is, it's a show. You don't want it to be like the military. So I wore sequins, and I got that from the ice skaters, I made a cloak. They gave me the candles. I felt like the Pope.' There is no posturing about the standard of darts in his time compared to now. 'The players of today would slaughter me. They're a good crew of young men, not big-headed, not show-offs. Michael van Gerwen calls me 'grandad' and 'silly old b------'. [Luke] Humphries is a lovely bloke.' What does he make of Luke Littler MBE? 'Good luck to him, it doesn't make you a better person though does it? You've got a handle behind your name, I want the handle in front of mine. Did you get that?' 'Sir?,' I ask. George pauses to shake my hand for understanding his joke, bracelets clinking rings in a golden jingle. 'I don't know the boy but I don't think he has got much personality yet. But I can't be nasty about him. It's a lot of pressure for a young man.' 'Farage ain't no mug' Nigel Farage invited George onto his Talking Pints series, seemingly forgiven after he backed Remain in 2016. He is a convert now. 'They think he's a drink, a laugh but he ain't no mug. He's sharp as anything. I'll vote for him. I think he'll get in, he might do alright, he can't be any worse than what we're doing now.' When Telegraph Sport last spoke to George three years ago he said he hated kids, but it may have been an exaggeration. There is obvious pride in how his sons with Marie, Richard and Robert, are forging their own path and delight that the grandkids have reached bantering age. Richard's son Edward wanted his chain fixed on his bicycle 'I said I'll do it in a minute. 'When are you going to do it?' I said look, I'm just having a cup of tea, I'll do it when I'm finished. 'When?', I said why don't you go and play with the buses on the A12? He's 10 now, he said 'grandad, there's no buses on the A12,' he done me up like a kipper. 'They're monkeys with no hair, anything that's breakable they're breaking, mate. Don't worry about that, they find a way. If you've got a hole in a chair they put a finger in and make it bigger. But the worst thing you can do is give them everything because they grow up thinking they're going to get it all the time. They've got to work.' 'Be lucky' He is philosophical about his advancing years. 'I'm getting near to the gates aren't I? I know I'm a nice bloke, coz I say to everyone else 'go on you go first,' and push them in front of me. I feel like sometimes I'm f------ worn out here. Then I look out there and it's f------ lovely. All the trees, all the wildlife, I've got goldfinches, linnets, jays, jackdaws, deer that run through the forest.' It is a vast difference from his upbringing by a single parent, his father, who was also blind. His mother died in George's infancy, but his is no hard-luck story. 'When I was young and we were really, really cold my grandad used to make us sit around a candle. When it got really really cold he used to light it.' It has been nearly 90 minutes but feels like it could go on in this vein for another 180. I have a (smaller) home to go to, so make my excuses. George shows me out, stressing that whatever I write must contain humour. I tell him it would be difficult for it not to. He waves me off towards the remote-control gates, swinging open as I approach with his farewell ringing out across the driveway: 'Be lucky.'
