The latest batch of Love Island contestants have finally been revealed and we have been studying them since the news broke. This year’s Islanders are set to enter the villa in less than a week and are probably applying a base tan and cleaning up their Instagram profiles this very second.

One of the hunks looking for love and a brand deal is Mehdi Edno, a communications manager who splits his time between Bordeaux and London. His Instagram is full of beach shots and luxurious locations, so maybe Mehdi will bring a touch of international glamour to the villa.

Who is Mehdi Edno?

Not only is he bilingual, Mehdi also has a Masters degree in communication. This may make him one of the smartest people to ever slow-mo walk into the villa. He claims that he’s been too preoccupied in the past for love, but now is the perfect time to start his Love Island journey.

“I’ve been busy for the last few years with work, and doing my Masters degree, but now I’m done with the busy schedule, and ready to find love,” he told producers.

Now we know, a lot of the Love Island stars have degrees but a Masters? Well, that's a little rare.

How old is Mehdi Edno?

Mehdi is 26 years old.

What will Mehdi Edno bring to the villa?

“My French accent, as well as lots of laughter,” he said.

Based on this answer alone, our guess is that Mehdi will be très popular in the villa this year. When asked for his elevator pitch, Mehdi admits that his language skills usually impress the opposite sex.

“I’d simply start by speaking French, that usually gets girls interested,” he admitted. We are definitely no exception.

Despite his flashy Instagram, Mehdi is more of an old-school romantic. When asked about his ideal first date, he kept it very classy and understated, “For me a picnic is very romantic. A picnic on a private, secluded beach.”

He added, “My best date was a picnic in a vineyard in France - it was beautiful with the sunset, and it was very romantic. It was something different, because going to restaurants was getting a bit boring.”

It sounds like this man absolutely loves dining al fresco.

Does Mehdi Edno have Instagram?

He does, Mehdi’s Insta handle is @Mehdiedno. His 18 posts will have to sustain us throughout the series, as Islanders are no longer allowed to have friends and family take over their social media accounts.

Where can I watch Love Island?

Love Island will return on 5 June, and episodes will air every weekday and Sunday on ITV2 or catch up on ITVX.
