The Love Island formula is tried and tested: say goodbye to people and more people show up to take their place and rock the boat, and one of those this year is Charlie.

He joined at the same time as Antigoni Buxton joined the Love Island 2022 line-up, and it turns out that they could have just chatted at the airport and cut out all the drama as they are now coupled up with each other.

While that has made things easier for them, they should know not to get too relaxed as anything can happen on Love Island, and the big old Casa Amor test is right around the corner.

Here's everything you need to know about Charlie Radnedge as he continues his Love Island journey.

Why did Charlie decide to take part in Love Island?

"It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity - I’ve got to give it a go. I date quite a lot in London and I’ve been single for three years, so I’m not having that much success in that department, so why not try something new," Charlie revealed when asked about his decision to sign up for the show.

Is Charlie on Instagram?

He is! Charlie can be followed at @charlieradnedge.

As of June 2022, Charlie has 6.4k followers, with the numbers expected to rise as he takes part in the ITV2 dating series.

The real estate developer likes to travel, regularly sharing snaps from his holidays, as well as some shirtless gym snaps. He'll fit in very well in the villa by the looks of things.

What is Charlie looking for in a partner?

Charlie mentioned that he likes someone who is quite "fiery", so it's no surprise he has his eye on fiery Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.

Asked who he likes the look of in the villa ahead of his debut, he said: "Ekin-Su, Paige and Tasha. But I’m keeping an open mind until I meet them. I might get on with someone I didn’t fancy before. I’m very much on the personality side of things and whether you vibe with someone. Ekin-Su is more towards my classic type. Paige seems like a very, very nice girl. Tasha seems like good fun as well. I find her quite intriguing - I want to find out more about her."
