Love Island's Eyal Booker signs-up for E4's Celebs Go Dating
Love Island's Eyal (aka #deep) left the villa a single man. So he's looking for love again, this time in E4's Celebs Go Dating...
Despite his model good-looks and #deep conversations, Love Island's Eyal Booker got dumped from ITV 2's hit reality show on Day 25 and left the Spanish villa a single man.
However, the model from London certainly hasn't been sitting at home feeling sorry for himself. He's been snapped about all over town, and has reunited with some Love Island favourites including presenter Caroline Flack!
But if you're missing Eyal from your telly screens, the good news is he'll be back on the box this autumn in the new season of E4's Celebs Go Dating. Will Eyal strike it lucky this time, or get 100% mugged-off again?
Also looking for someone whose 100% their type on paper are Mutya Buena of Sugababes fame, The Only Way Is Essex's Chloe Sims, Diversity dancer Sam Craske and another Love Island-er, Olivia Attwood.
Dating expert Nadia Essex will be joined by award-winning new agent, Paul Carrick to coach the seven celebrities at the dating agency before they head off to meet their mystery dates.
"To say I’m excited and scared to the join the Celebs Go Dating agency is an understatement!" says Olivia. "I’m known as a wild child, party girl so I’m sure I’ll keep Nadia and Paul on their toes."

Celebs Go Dating returns to E4 in the autumn
Simon has long been a fan of soap operas, and especially loves OVER-THE-TOP plots involving evil twins, hair-pulling catfights and natural disasters. Anyone remember the Sunset Beach earthquake/tidal wave? Or when Krystle Carrington got locked in the attic and replaced by look-a-like Rita in Dynasty?!
Simon has written for a variety of TV and childrens’ magazines/websites including Inside Soap, Nickelodeon, What’s On TV, Radio Times, Metro, Girl Talk, Disney Girl, Toxic! and Digital Spy. He has reported LIVE from the red carpet at The British Soap Awards interviewing glammed-up stars from soapland, and hosted a Facebook LIVE session for Metro with Home and Away legend Ray Meagher (Alf "Stone the flamin' crows!" Stewart) to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Aussie soap.
Simon is also co-author of The Treasures Of Coronation Street (Carlton Books)
And the writer and director of (very!) low budget fright flick, Midsummer Night's EVIL and the sequel webisodes series, The Hatchet Woods HORROR.
