LOVE Island star Tanyel Revan was a secret bombshell on the ITV2 show last year, The Sun can reveal. The beauty from London swapped Majorca for South Africa when she was called back to star in the 2023 series.
But last year she was waiting in the wings as one of the show's stunning late arrivals, and was ready to steal a villa boy from the likes of footballer's daughter Gemma Owen and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu - who went on to win the show Davide Sanclimenti.
A source told The Sun: "Tanyel was lined up to go into the Majorca villa as a late bombshell last year and was even flown to Spain, staying in isolation for two weeks. "She was pretty much guaranteed a spot in the villa, but at the last minute the storyline changed and she wasn't the right fit. "Tanyel was really devastated but she parted ways with producers on good terms and they loved her energy.
