The Love Island villa welcomed a former naked waiter through its doors on Sunday - but hopefully with most of his clothes on.

Brighton-based Conor Durman, who revealed to MailOnline that he auditioned for the show in his naked butler outfit, says he has already had the best first date ever while living in Australia.

The 25-year-old has hinted he's now "mature" enough to settle down after having "gone through a lot" in his life, presumably most of which came during his time as a buff butler Down Under.

So, get ready to meet Connor Durman, the coffee bean salesman with a penchant for hummus and crackers (yes, really).

Who is Connor Durman?

The 25-year-old coffee bean salesman hails from Worthing, the same place as 2019 Islander Amy Hart.

According to his Instagram, Connor owns his own business called the Naked Barista, and we can only but assume the coffee lover got the idea for this while working for the well-known naked waiting service Butlers in the Buff during the four-year stint he spent living in Sydney.

But that wasn't all Connor got up to Down Under, as the coffee expert claims he did a lot of growing up while living on the other side of the world.

"I’ve been living in Australia for four years," he says. "In that time, I’ve grown up, done everything myself, I’ve got so many new and different life experiences.

"I’ve had two big relationships, one good, one bad. I think I’ve gone through a lot. I’m mature now and I know what I want."

Rating himself a solid 7/10, he finds it "weird" that women always compliment him on his hands but also bizarrely claims his worst habit is that he eats a pot of hummus and crackers every single day.

He's also a fan of previous Islanders Micheal Griffiths and Jordan Hames, telling MailOnline that he likes their "banter."

In his promo for the show Connor put his success with the ladies down to his dentistry, saying: "Since I got these teeth, I've been pulling so many more birds."

Who is Connor coupled up with?

Despite saying he'd pick Paige in his Love Island promo vid, Connor decided to pick Rochelle Humes' sister, Sophie

Connor pulled Sophie for a chat on the day bed, hoping his veneers would dazzle her - and for a moment it looked as though the couple would kiss.

Then, in true Love Island fashion, everyone started sharing stories about their love lives - with Connor admitting that he once had a threesome with two girls. This did not go down well with Sophie, and the pair granted viewers the first domestic of the season.

And following the introduction of bombshell Connagh Howard, things became rocky between the pair and in the first recoupling of the series things didn't quite go their way for our former naked waiter.

Connagh went first and picked Sophie ahead of Connor, who was then left to enter into a non-romantic relationship with Siannise Fudge.

Is Connor Durman on Instagram?

He sure is, and as you'd expect, his profile page is full of pictures of cheeky Connor topless or with his modesty barely covered.

But it's not all PG-13 rated content - there are plenty of pictures of Connor on nights out with pals or spending time with family members.

What's Connor Durman's type?

An outgoing and loving Maya Jama lookalike with "a big personality".

"I don’t want her to be embarrassed to show it in front of people," he says. "Family orientated and she’s got to fit in with my mates. Just be easy going."

Connor likes to go in strong on a first date, revealing that he's already had his ideal experience with a girl Down Under.

"I’ve actually already had the best date," he says. "When I was in Sydney, I met this girl on Instagram and messaged her because we had mutual friends. I booked this cinema in the park with a double bed, bottle of champagne and we watched A Star Is Born - best first date ever."

And his worst dating experience? It doesn't make pretty reading for the cheeky chappy, who admits he let his wandering eye get the better of him on this occasion.

"I went on a date with a girl. She asked me back to her house for some more drinks and let’s just say I ended up getting on really well with her housemate..."

What has Connor Durman said about Winter Love Island 2020?

Talking about the villa Connor said he was blunt and upfront, and is willing to take a chance on someone if he likes her.

He said: "I’m quite honest and I say whatever’s on my mind. I don’t want to make a complete fool of myself, but if I like someone I will tell her and I will go for it."

Claiming he is a "more mature" person than he was when he was younger when was was more likely to cheat, he holds a lot of faith in the "bro code".

"Whatever you say to your boys, they need to keep that to themselves," he says. "They need to have your back and not be snake-y. I hate snakes."

When did the new series of Love Island start?

The new series of Winter Love Island started on Sunday January 12.
