It comes after speculation was rife that the Dublin incfluencer would join the TV show at some point throughout the series.

On Monday, the Galway GAA player's sister said she and the rest of his family love Lola, adding that she thinks the pair are the real deal.

It was announced at the end of May that the 25-year-old primary school teacher from Galway would be featuring on the reality television show.

She is the second Irish person this season, as Galway footballer Seán Fitzgerald started off in the villa. 

Also known for his social media profile, primarily on TikTok, Fitzgerald is signed to Marvel, an Irish talent and influencer management agency. In February, Fitzgerald published a TikTok video where he expressed his interest in appearing on the show.
