Love Island 2022 sure is heating up, especially with the arrival of the latest bombshell, Antigoni Buxton—who not only has a killer voice but an impressive Instagram following. Here’s everything we know about the lineup's latest blonde beauty—from her music to her famous family.

Antigoni has really taken the villa by storm, the Cypriot stunner has turned a number of heads and is already topping the list of viewers' fave islanders!

Since her surprise entrance, she has taken Davide, Dami and Jay on dates and even managed to charm the girls in the villa—which is quite an achievement in itself, especially since she poses a serious threat to their couples…

And while she’s already made a great first impression in the villa, her life before joining the 2022 lineup was already pretty impressive.

So without further ado, let’s dive into everything we know about Antigoni Buxton—from her family to her budding music career!

It turns out that Antigoni is joining the ranks of Gemma Owen and Liam Llewellyn, both of whom have parents with a claim to fame.

If you thought you recognized Antigoni’s last name you were right on the money, as she’s the daughter of TV chef, Tonia Buxton who has appeared on shows like Sunday Brunch and is a presenter on GB News.

What is Antigoni Buxton’s job?

Antigoni is a singer-songwriter who already has a number of singles under her belt, all of which can be found on Spotify and Apple Music (released under her first name 'Antigoni.) Her most successful song is ‘Red Flag’ which already has over 30,000 streams!

She also has an impressive 68 thousand followers on Instagram, so we predict great things for her post-Love Island.

As far as what she's looking for in the villa, Antigoni describes herself as competitive but says she’s not looking to step on anyone’s toes and as for her ‘type’—she explains to ITV: “I won’t know who I’m feeling until I get in there—I need to meet somebody in person and see their energy and vibe.”

Though she does add, when she likes someone she gives it 100%. We can’t wait to see how she does on the show!
