Love Island’s controversial game hunter Ollie Williams looks completely different three years after quitting villa

HE hit headlines when he entered the Love Island villa back in 2019 thanks to his love of shooting.

And while Ollie Williams is still a professional hunter, he looks a far cry from the fresh-faced chap who appeared on the show.

These days the 26-year-old sports impressive facial hair, including a distinguished moustache.

His Instagram shows he still spends his time hunting and travelling around the world to do it.

The Cornish born lad quit the show in 2019 after just three days because he said he was  he's still in love with his ex-girlfriend.

However his time on the show was shrouded in controversy after pictures emerged of him posing with dead animals in Africa.

Following his exit he insisted they were taken as part of a sustainable conservation programme in Mozambique.

The pictures of Ollie posing beside a dead warthog, water buffalo and giant eland sparked almost 500 Ofcom complaints from viewers.

He said: “I can see why people reacted to those pictures in the way they did – the photos are offensive, all people can see is a dead animal and me smiling and I apologise for the offensive nature of them.

“I was given an opportunity to go out and work in a conservation and anti-poaching unit in Mozambique.

“One of the days one of the guys turned round to me and told me that another side to poaching is the sustainable hunting side and invited me to observe.

“I knew the negativity were about these pictures, because taken out of context they look bad. I’m not a trophy hunter and I don’t take gratification out of killing animals.”

After receiving death threats Ollie’s family have billed ITV for the security they have been forced to hire at their home in Cornwall.

The viscount-in-waiting, heir to the 2,000-acre Lanhydrock estate in Cornwall, later slammed the show and revealed that he was fed lines to say in his introduction video and “vilified” in challenges.
