LOVE Island hunk Thomas Powell looked almost unrecognisable as he struck a very muscular topless pose showing the results of body building.

The reality star has embraced a super healthy lifestyle and showed off his ripped figure in his latest jaw-dropping Instagram snap.

Tom dated the late Sophie Gradon until November 2016 - when BOTH accused the other of cheating.

Although fans of the matchmaking show will have noted his muscular, tattooed look during his time in the ITV2 villa, it seems he has ramped up the weights and reps in the past few years.

The brand and club owner, though, appears particularly modest about his achievements in the gym, and made no reference to his new look in his picture caption.

Instead, he wrote: "If you are looking for a second income then message my pal."

Though despite being shy over highlighting his new figure, his fans took the opposite approach.

Many gushed as he posed side on in a tiny pair of red boxers.

Tom flashed a sultry pout for the shot, which he took with the help of a mirror and his phone camera.

One fan posted underneath: "Jheeze."

Another added: "Wow," while one uploaded a series of Emoji icons with heart-shaped eyes to show their appreciation.

A friend of Tom posted: "Looking good bro," to which he replied: "Cheers brother."

Since leaving the iconic TV series, Tom has set up his own range, Athletic Culture, as well as an Only Fans account for his racier photographs.

He has also uploaded shots tagged at The Ware-House Port Talbot, where he showed off his muscles in a gym vest.

Meanwhile, giving fans the full glimpse of his new look, he has a whole Instagram stories dedicated to "Posing".

Sophie, Tom's Love Island ex, sadly passed away in 2018.

At the time of their split, she took to Twitter to write: "Some people are meant to fall in love with each other, but not be together.”

However despite the amicable seeming post, two hours later she posted and then deleted screen grabs from a Twitter DM of Tom apparently asking a girl for her number, captioned: "When I didn't do anything wrong."
