and live on Freeview channel 276
The 21-year-old TV salesman was revealed as one of the show’s 10 contestants yesterday morning and will be seen in the villa when the show launches for the latest series on ITV next Monday.
But within moments of his appearance being unveiled, model Courtney Hodgson claimed that Haris is the “biggest game player” as she rushed to comment on his promo pictures, saying he dumped her weeks before flying out to South Africa.

In another comment, she added: “Biggest game player going, leaving me for a TV show and I called it from the second he left me.”
In response to the claims, ITV said: “All islanders entering Love Island are single and looking for love.”
There are no traces of pictures of Haris and Courtney together – however they were both pictured at London restaurant STK on the same day.

He added: “I’ve never taken a girl home, I’m not going to say I’ve fallen in love until I’ve taken them to meet my mum and dad or sisters and brother.”
