Who is Aaron Buckett?
Aaron Buckett is the first male contestant to be revealed for the summer 2025 series of Love Island - and in true Love Island style, he's a tall, dark, and handsome head-turner.
'It's a fact of life that girls go crazy for a tall lad, and Aaron is a man mountain," a source exclusively shared with The Sun. 'He's got great chat too."
Standing at a staggering 6 feet 5 inches and stacked with muscle, he's sure to catch the eyes of his fellow contestants in the villa no matter when his entrance ends up being.
'Aaron is in the mix for this year's cast, but execs are still finalising whether he'll be in the opening line-up or as a tempting bombshell,' the source continued.
And while we'll need to wait until his official introduction on Love Island to find out his age, we do know that the muscular 'man mountain' lives in London.
What does Aaron Buckett do for a living?
As evidenced by his build, Aaron is a personal trainer, who shares his workouts with tens of thousands of followers across both his Instagram and TikTok pages.
As of May 2025, he has a total of 3.7k followers on Instagram, and 13.3k on TikTok.
In addition to documenting his fitness routines and toned physique, he also offers an online workout plan, which fans can purchase for £49.99.
Who else will be joining Aaron Buckett in the Love Island villa?
Aaron Buckett will be joined by Lucy Quinn, a 20-year-old make-up artist from Liverpool who is expected to enter the villa as a bombshell.

This year marks a decade since the show first aired in 2015.
And between the cast reveals and a 10-year anniversary special featuring fan favourite couples such as 2021 winners Millie Court and Liam Reardon and 2022's second runners-up Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope, it's shaping up to be an unforgettable summer.
The Majorcan villa is also undergoing a major makeover, with aerial images showing that the firepit is now purple.
While the look of villa may be changing, The Sun can also exclusively share that the iconic voice of the show, Iain Stirling, isn't going anywhere — and neither is the spin-off show AfterSun, according to host Maya Jama.

But when can we anticipate this summer's series to drop?
An official series premiere date is notably absent from both announcement teaser on ITV's Instagram and the recently-dropped trailer, but despite that, we can anticipate a season full of "twists".
"This year I want more drama, more bombshells, more break-ups, more makeups," Maya says while standing at the head of a boardroom table in the trailer. "I want more twists, I want more twists than ever."
