The 22-year-old contestant - who recently finished his master’s degree in strength and conditioning - left ITV2 viewers stunned during his VT as he made a number of revelations.

As well as admitting he is baffled by raisins being dried grapes, he laughed: "I thought Elton John was two blokes for 20 years.

"I just thought it was like 'Elt and John', just like it’s Ant and Dec."

Liam was coupled up with Michael Owen's daughter Gemma in Monday's (06.06.22) launch episode.

He described himself as a "happy man" after being paired up with Gemma, and although she called him "cute", "fit" and "really nice", she seemed less enthusiastic.

The dressage professional also left Liam confused when she told him about her pet dogs - both Italian Greyhounds - and 12 horses.

He said: "You have 12 horses? At home? You must have a big house. Well, horses are outside.”

Meanwhile, Gemma is yet to reveal her famous father and couldn't help but smirk after Liam revealed his love for football.

She asked if he'd played at a "decent level", and carried on asking questions after he revealed he stopped playing when he was young.

He replied: "I feel like you’ve been with an ex-footballer or something."

She insisted she was just "interested" in his past, and he eventually stopped asking why she was so intrigued.

Later in the episode, Gemma again came close to revealing her famous father when the Islanders were chatting about their surnames and she revealed her own - but none of the Islanders made the connection.

The first episode also saw islanders play a game of dares, with Davide having to do a “strip tease”.

Gemma refused to perform a lap dance for Liam, and dared to kiss the Islander she wants to share a bed with, the teenager grabbed Davide for a brief kiss, leaving Liam stunned.

Gemma later admitted she felt there was “something missing” in Liam and said she was most “physically attracted” to Davide.

The Italian then got a cliffhanger text which said he will have to couple up with the girl of his choice 24 hours later.
