But it’s making him seriously unpopular with the boys in the villa, who are furious about the impact he’s had on the women.

In scenes that will air on tonight’s show, the girls – including Olivia Attwood and Jessica Shears – are falling over themselves to get Mike’s attention.

Although they’re both loved up, they’ve made it crystal clear they want to bag the date with him.

Speaking to Amber Davies, Jessica says: “Mike is very, very, very attractive.

“On paper he’s the perfect man. Trainer, yes. Dark hair, yes. Tall, yes. Big but not too muscular. Athletic, yes.”

She’ll have to fight Olivia though, who told Montana nothing would stop her from going on a date with him.

Talking to the cameras, Olivia says: “F**king Mike walks through the door and Mike is everything I go to bed thinking about. That’s me!

“I have no words. Love Island has played me.”

Later in the episode, Mike sits down to talk to Amber and Jessica – not knowing their on screen lovers Dominic Lever and Kem Cetinay are watching his every move.

Kem tells Dom: “Amber’s sat there having a full conversation with him. I don’t like him!”

Staring at them, Dom tells him: “Genuinely in my life, no one has ever stole my bird and it’s not going to happen now. I am powerful, very powerful.”

In the Beach Hut later, Kem says : “I’m not going to lie, I’m feeling really paranoid… It’s because when she walked in, she was bowling around going ‘Oh my God, he’s unreal.’ It’s muggy.”

“All the boys are having breakdowns. Chris has had a breakdown, I’m having a breakdown, all of us are nervous.

“But this is what happens in here, this is what this place does to you. A half decent looking geezer walks in, you do get nervous.”

As the group sit around the pool, Mike gets a text which tells him he has to choose a girl to take on a date.

With just seconds to make his mind up, the pressure is on as Mike’s decision will no doubt cause fireworks.
