Love Island's Helena unrecognisable in exposed snaps before villa fame

Love Island bombshell Helena Ford looks unrecognisable in a selection of throwback snaps as she embarks on her second love triangle in the villa with Harry Cooksley
Helena Ford is almost unrecognisable in throwback photos that have resurfaced from her past. The 29-year-old blonde bombshell has been making waves in the Love Island villa, catching the attention of both Harrison Solomon and Harry Cooksley.
Fans of the popular ITV2 dating show have dug up old photos of a younger Helena, showcasing a drastic transformation. A TikTok user shared a series of pictures, leaving many fans stunned.

The comment section was flooded with reactions, with one user exclaiming: "I gasped (shocked emoji)". Another fan added: "No way," while a third person typed: "She's such a stunner."

Helena is currently paired with bombshell Giorgio Russo, but has found herself in her second love triangle in just three weeks. She made a move on Harrison, earning her the label "sneak b***h" from love rival Toni Laites, who was coupled up with the footballer.
Helena and Harrison shared a steamy kiss in the Hideaway, leading Toni to end her romance with him over his "sneaky" snog. However, it seems Helena still has "unfinished business" with former flame Harry, which has left his partner Shakira Khan fuming, reports OK!.
During a game of Snog, Marry and Pie, Helena chose to snog Harry, saying: "It's been a while and I wanted to test the waters." Harry left his partner Shakira shocked when he chose to kiss Helena, candidly confessing, "There's undeniable sexual chemistry."
Tensions rose again with the return of the Heart Rate Challenge. Helena got closer to Harry with a rather explicit proposition in an attempt to spike his heart rate.

As she sucked on his finger, she whispered naughtily: "I can't wait to f*** you!" - a comment that visibly rocked Harry. Dejon Noel-Williams was seen gaping as Harrison relayed Helena's risqué remark, leading everyone to question whether it's merely a strategic move to influence his pulse or if her attraction to Harry is real.
On Monday night, the power was given to the boys as they were able to pick who to couple up with. It was Ben who made a shock move as he chose to couple up with Helena, leaving Harrison in the dark.
Despite having snogged Helena in the previous challenge, Harry chose to recouple with Shakira, but the villa was in for a shock when Ben chose to couple up with Helena. It was then down to Harrison, and without the option of Helena, he decided to couple up with Toni once again.
That left Conor and Alima in a friendship couple, after both Megan and Remell were sent home earlier in the week. Fans were left shocked with Ben's choice, and although he said he needed to go with the girl he was vibing with the most - fans suspected it meant they were the next to be dumped.
After the recoupling, Helena went over to speak to Harrison, who said he had prepared to pick her, even having planned out his whole recoupling speech.

Bonnie Blue documentary is sad, uncomfortable and prurient viewing

New film, which followed the contentious OnlyFans star for six months, fails to get to the bottom of what motivates her extreme sex stunts. But it does introduce us to her family, who are all on her payroll 'Everyone has sex; just some of us film it,' is the phrase Bonnie Blue chooses to introduce her Channel 4 documentary. It's a suitably glib start to the hour-long film, 1,000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story, which charts the controversial OnlyFans star's rise to global infamy. Aged 26, Blue, whose real name is Tia Billinger, is best known for staging extreme sex stunts; in January, she claimed to have slept with 1,057 men in 12 hours, filming it all for her OnlyFans account, which has since been disabled after the platform banned her. It's hard to know where to begin with Blue, who earns upwards of £1.5m per month from her videos, which she now shares on Fansly, another subscription-based social platform. Perhaps with the sheer impossibility of her so-called 1,000-men challenge, which would amount to 41 seconds per man, without accounting for the time it takes to change between them. Then there's the footage itself, much of which features in the film, showing a fully-naked Blue surrounded by penises penetrating her mouth and vagina. Or there's her litany of rage-bait TikTok videos, in which she urges 'barely legal or barely breathing' men to have sex with her, often at the expense of their wives and girlfriends, who Blue happily lambasts as sexually inferior.

Tina O'Brien's marriage U-turn as she 'gets serious' with new man

Tina O'Brien, who is dating new man Adam Fadlé following her divorce from Adam Croft, could be thinking about wedding bells, claims a source When Corrie star Jack P Shepherd tied the knot with Hanni Treweek at Manchester Cathedral, all eyes were on the happy bride and groom. But another star of the Manchester-based soap, Tina O'Brien, 41, also attracted her fair share of attention, making her first public appearance at the star-studded nuptials with her new man - and a source claims to OK! that she could even be thinking about tying the knot herself. ‌ The mum-of-two seems to have found love again with interior designer Adam Fadlé, 38, after splitting from her husband of seven years, Adam Croft s. And the pair couldn't have looked more loved up as they attended Jack's wedding alongside a host of fellow cast members such as Lucy Fallon, Samia Longchambon, Alan Halsall and Jayne Danson - even going in for a passionate kiss at one point. ‌ ‌ A source at the wedding told : 'There was no mistaking they were an item on the day. Tina looked very much smitten with Adam. She looked radiant and everyone that saw them could see how besotted with each other they were. They were all over each other". They added, as it emerged Tina packed on the PDA at her co-star's wedding: 'Tina dotes on him - she loves that he's very calm and is a real gentleman, in every way. She's head over heels. This is no flash in the pan relationship, they're getting serious.' Tina has had quite a rollercoaster when it comes to her lovelife, but the Weatherfield favourite is thought to be 'besotted' with her new beau - and is evening considering tying the knot again, claims our mole, inspired by pal Jack's fairytale nuptials. 'There is talk of marriage between them already. It might seem like quite the U-turn given her marriage to Adam not working out, but there could totally be wedding bells at some point - they loved Jack's big day and seemed really caught up in the whole wedding fever. Tina is happy to give marriage a second try." ‌ It's believed (subs - source in The Sun) the pair met through friends in their hometown of Cheshire, and have already been on a string of dates together and that Tina - who plays Sarah Platt on the Cobbles - is 'totally mad' for her new beau. Their cosy debut as a couple came not long after Tina was seen letting her hair down and enjoying the single life, after it was revealed last month that she and her husband had called it a day, following weeks of speculation. ‌ The estranged couple share a son, Beau, 10, and are thought to be on amicable terms for the sake of their child, but their very different lifestyles - Tina allegedly enjoying a showbiz party, while Adam prefers the quiet life - took a toll on their marriage. Tina and her estranged husband first met at a coffee shop in Manchester in 2011, the couple tying the knot in a surprise New Year 's Eve ceremony in 2018. But split rumours began to emerge when she shared a snap of herself at former co-star, Colson Smith 's leaving party. Taking to Instagram, Tina - just weeks after going on holiday without her husband - donned a stunning red mini dress and without her wedding ring markedly absent on her ring finger. Friends subsequently confirmed that the couple had split, and that after moving house at Christmas had decided to live separately for the time being. ‌ Tina also shares a daughter Scarlett, 16, also an actress on Waterloo Road, with ex Ryan Thomas, who recently returned to Weatherfield as part of Sue Cleaver 's (Eileen Grimshaw) exit storyline. The two soap stars began a relationship in 2003, welcoming their daughter in 2008, but split in 2008, though they continue to co-parent Scarlett, who features regularly on both mum and dad's social media. ‌ Their relationship, however, has been notoriously strained, though in recent times it's believed the pair have decided to put their differences aside to support teenage Scarlett's budding career. Back in April, a source close to the family told : 'Ryan and Tina have had their rows and disagreements over the years, but now, they are joining forces and pulling out all the stops, as they can see that Scarlett is going to be a superstar.' Well, with relations seemingly more harmonious when it comes to her ex Ryan, her career going great guns and a potential wedding on the cards, this could be a whole new chapter for Tina. And nobody deserves lasting happiness more.
