The new series of Love Island officially kicked off on Monday, and viewers have already picked one bikini-clad beauty that's set to be a fan favourite.

Jasmine was quick to ruffle feathers just minutes after arriving at the villa, as she launched a brutal takedown of the boys who were meant to catch her eye.

The fashion business owner, 27, is no stranger to high-profile romances, having previously dated Arsenal player Héctor Bellerín in 2021.

And she didn't shy away from sharing her thoughts on the boys who had entered the villa, leading some viewers to compare her to fellow villa siren  Cülcüloğlu.

During the icebreaker, Jasmine spoke out on which boys she thought were red flags.

She said: 'I'm not obsessed with you three not drinking on that first question.

Love Island beauty Jasmine proved an immediate hit with fans during Monday's launch show, as they compared her to fellow villa siren Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu

'That no one here's your type, there's so many beautiful women here!'

Ope hit back: 'We just don't know yet!' but Jasmine insisted: 'You don't need to know, look!'

Fans lauded Jasmine's comments, writing on X: 'Jasmine clocking the boys already omg I like her already;'

'Oh Jasmine is giving me Amber + Ekin-Su vibes we have the leader of the group;'

'Jasmine is so real because what do you mean none of these beautiful women are your type?;'

'Obsessed with Jasmine having the whole gang gagged;'

'Jasmine clocking them!! I just know I'm gonna love her;'

Jasmine previously told how she enjoyed a 'healthy and lovely' romance with Bellerin.

Speaking to Daily Mail and other publications ahead of her stint on the ITV2 dating show, Jasmine opened up on Héctor and told how the high profile relationship has prepared her for being in the public eye.

She said: 'You know, I had a very healthy and lovely relationship with him and everything is on good terms. I have nothing bad to say about him, and he the same for me.

Viewers quickly lauded Jasmine just minutes into her first appearance in the villa

'But it is so long ago that it's not something I think about on a daily. Obviously, I know that it's something interesting for people to talk about, but it's not a big part of my life anymore.

'I think it probably has prepared me in some ways. Obviously, you know, we were together for a while, we were close, but I also just I think I've got myself, and I have a very amazing support network. So I think that's my main preparation, being with my family and feeling really loved and feeling really proud of myself.' 

Love Island's new series kicked off at night for the very first time, with host  making an immediate entrance as the Islanders headed into the villa for an exclusive welcome party under the stars. 

Viewers watched Aidan, Mica, Lorenzo, Samraj, Robyn, Lola, Angelista, Ope, Jasmine, Sean, Ellie and Sam start getting to know each other. 

They then played an Ice Breaker round to get to know each other where they were asked who they fancied the most, who were their types and if they had seen any red flag behaviour yet. 

Soon Maya said the Islanders got to choose who to couple up with themselves rather than the public voting. If multiple people were interested in the same person - they had to work it out themselves. 

As they made their minds up between themselves, Mica picked Samraj, Lorenzo picked Jasmine, Aidan picked Ellie, Angelista picked Ope, Sean picked Lola and Sam was left with Robyn. 

This year, the villa has also been given a multi-million-pound revamp, and is filled with designer goods and more beds than ever before, making room for more bombshells to shake things up.

Islanders will be filmed for the next eight weeks and live in very close quarters, which is sure to cause tension among the new singletons.
