Who is Brad McClelland from Love Island 2021? Age, Instagram and job

Brad McClelland is heading into the Love Island villa and hoping to find his own brunette beauty.

The cast for this year’s upcoming series has been unveiled today (June 21), and Brad can’t wait to be chilling in the sun in Majorca.

He’s definitely looking forward to a summer holiday, as he admitted: ‘Who wouldn’t want to be in a nice villa in a hot country for a while?’

Brad also has a type, as he admitted his top celebrity crushes are Sommer Ray, Zara McDermott and Megan Fox.

But what else do we know about him?

Here’s everything you need to know…

Who is Brad McClelland and what’s his Instagram?

The 26-year-old hunk loves going to the gym, and he considers himself pretty sociable as he prefers dating in-person compared to online romancing.

He said: ‘I want to date face-to-face, I like meeting people. I’m easy going, laid back. Who wouldn’t want to be in a nice villa in a hot country for a while?’

If you want to keep up with him on Instagram – including his workouts, shirtless snaps and photos out hiking – his handle is brad_mcclell.

What does Brad from Love Island work as?

Brad is a labourer from Northumberland, although he admitted he can be a bit workshy.

Asked how his fellow workers would describe him, he said: ‘I try and make as much money as I can by doing as little as possible. 

‘They’d probably say – not lazy, as I’m energetic – I just try to get away with doing literally nothing.’

We’ll see how that goes down in the villa!

When does Love Island 2021 start?

We’ve not got long to wait!

After missing out last year, we’ll get to enjoy all the love and drama in the villa when the new series kicks off on June 28.
