Here's What The 'Love Island' Cast Looked Like When They Were Younger

We've become quite well-acquainted with this year's Love Island cast and it can often feel like the Islanders were born with six packs, bronzed skin and groomed eyebrows.

However, bit of digging has revealed that even our Islanders were not immune to embarrassing selfies, cringe trends and awkward prom photos in their younger years.

We've unearthed our favourite Islanders' old photos to have a giggle over, so sit back, relax and take a look at what the cast of 2019 looked like before they were famous...

Molly-Mae Hague now: The 20-year-old social media influencer is a friend to all around the villa, and is cracking on with Tommy. These days, she's known for her bombshell blonde hair and killer tan.

Molly-Mae Hague then: Molly-Mae's a natural brunette?! What! Yes, an old prom photo from Molly-Mae's youth shows the influencer with naturally dark hair and far less tan. Mind blown.

Curtis Pritchard now: The 23-year-old ballroom dancer is loved for his constant smile and agony aunt role in the villa, always giving sound advice and helping to smooth over any spats. But has Curtis always looked the same?

Curtis Pritchard then: A childhood photo shows the honorary villa therapist with his warm smile still in tact. You've got to love Curtis!

Yewande Biala now: The stunning 23-year-old scientist has won herself some fans in the villa for her wide smile and perfect one-liners, even though she's struggled to open up to Danny who she is coupled with...

Yewande Biala then: Judging by this childhood photo, Yewande was still bossing it back in the day. What a pose.

Amber Gill now: The 21-year-old beauty therapist from Newcastle is known and loved for her big hair and feisty nature. But has she always looked similar?

Amber Gill then: As a teenager, Amber looks barely unrecognisable rocking much darker hair and bright red lips.

Amy Hart now: The 26-year-old air hostess is currently coupled up with Curtis Pritchard who she's also gone official 'half-boyfriend-girlfriend' with. The bubbly blonde is a friend to everyone in the villa (bar an ongoing spat with Lucie).

Amy Hart then: Back in the day, Amy enjoyed a pouty cheeky mirror selfie or two. Don't worry Amy, we've all been there!

Joe Garratt now: The 22-year-old South Londoner and his tousled curls have won over surfer babe Lucie Donlan. But has he always had his famous mop?

Joe Garratt then: Posing alongside a pal way back in 2013, a 16-year-old Joe rocked a much shorter head of hair.

Tommy Fury now: The 20-year-old professional boxer has had the ladies swooning over his tree trunk arms and golden tan, even if he doesn't know how to make a cup of tea...

Tommy Fury then: Thanks to Facebook we found a bunch of old photos of Tommy, and they are GOLD. Just like this one of a very young Tommy in his school uniform.

Lucie Donlan now: The 21-year-old surfer and model who is currently coupled up with Joe tends to rock a gorgeous natural look. But has she always gone for less is more?

Lucie Donlan then: It seems so. In an old modelling shot, Lucie poses with her surfboard in her hometown of Newquay, and looks gorgeous.

Maura Higgins now: The 28-year-old Irish bombshell ruffled some feathers when she entered the villa and turned some heads among the boys thanks to her model stature and long brown locks.

Maura Higgins then: Years ago, Maura still knew how to work her angles as she posed for photos before nights out in 2013.

Callum Macleod now: It wasn't meant to be for Callum who was sadly the first to be booted out of the villa when Amber chose not to recouple with him. He was a handsome chap, but has he always been blessed with his good looks?

Callum Macleod then: Yep, we saved the best until the end. In a school photo throwback posted on his Instagram, Callum rocked a very retro spiked look. Thanks for sharing this with us Callum. Day made.

Tom Walker now: Tom is a 29-year-old model from Leeds who is easy on the eye. But has he always possessed his model good looks?

Tom Walker then: In a reeeeally old pic with an ex-girlfriend, Tom looks far younger, but otherwise, still a good looking chap.

If you're wondering about the other Islanders, let's just say they obviously had a major social media cleanse before entering the villa (doh - fun sponges!), but TBH, with think Callum's school photo makes up for the lot, don't you?

Love Island continues tonight on ITV2 at 9pm.
