Love Island season 11 has been entertaining viewers for the last two weeks, keeping their 9pm slots busy with endless love triangles - and for one islander, an ultimatum!
Ronnie Vint entered the villa as one of the original islanders, and while it appeared he and Jess were going from strength to strength, his wandering eye caused tensions between the two.
After being given an ultimatum by Jess, Ronnie hadn't made his mind up and ended up coupling up with Harriett - but now he has his eyes on new bombshell Tiffany! The cycle never ends!
As Ronnie tries to steer clear of the drama on Love Island, here is everything you need to know about him.

Who is Ronnie Vint?
Ronnie describes himself as "bubbly, fun and confident". He hopes to get on well with the others in the villa.
The mayonnaise-mad footballer explains that flashing a grin is often what gets the ladies interested: "I always get told I’ve got a nice smile, and I’m tall - which goes down well with the girls."
Ronnie has had two serious relationships, and now hopes the series will help him find the woman of his dreams.
"I’ve got to the age where I want to find the right person I can build a life with," he said. "I want someone that's family-orientated, caring and career-minded. Looks-wise, I like blondes with nice boobs - but am partial to a brunette too."
