But there was a shock in store for Joey, 33, as he immediately recognised fashion content creator Emma Milton (pictured)
She announced: 'Good morning boys! Right, het your swimshorts on and come out because we're all waiting for you.'
As the Islanders reacted in shock and excitement, Joey could be seen putting his face in his hands and muttering: 'No, no, no, no, no.'
He then announced to the room: 'Bro, I know her bro,' causing Ciaran Davies to shout: 'Oh, not again! Oh, God!'
The boys burst out laughing at Joey's revelation, as he snapped: 'What do I do bro? Bro, no. It's not even funny, man.'
Ahead of her arrival in the villa, Emma revealed that she and Joey had a fling together a few years ago and that she would be open to revisiting their romance.
But she also added that she was friends with Joey's former flame Grace Jackson, who he only just called things off with.
She said: 'I had a brief thing with Joey a few years ago. We’ve been friends for years and I would be open to reconnecting with Joey.
'We get on really well and we have a lot of mutual friends. I am also friends with Grace in Manchester, so it’s a little bit awkward.'

But viewers at home were unimpressed with the revelation, as they pointed out that Emma wasn't the first bombshell that Joey had a previous connection with
Joey had previously dated Grace last summer, after they met in Ibiza and continued their romance back home, before they eventually split over their lack of time together, with Grace based in Manchester and Joey in Essex (pictured together)
Chatting together later on, Joey tried to act vague with Emma, saying: 'The last time I saw you was where?' as Emma awkwardly replied: 'It was in Essex...'

Fans took to social media to blast the producers for turning the show into TOWIE or Ex On the Beach, while also slamming Joey for seemingly dating every white woman in the UK.
They fumed: 'Did the love island producers just go through who Joey follows on insta?; OF COURSE JOEY KNOWS HER he would wouldn’t he; Is there anybody in the uk Joey has not dated?'
'Joey is UNREAL why does he know everyone on the planet; Producers need to stop putting Joey at the centre of everything. Another bombshell he knows? Yeah, it’s getting a lil played out.'
'Might be 3 white women left in Britain that Joey doesn’t know; Can they stop bringing out people Joey knows let him continue the catch-ups on the outside please'.
'Joey must have shagged 40% of England cuz ain’t no way…; Joey already had his show loool ?? Why does love island have to be all about him too; Joey is bringing ALL his exes to see which one he wants to settle down with'.

'Why are the producers centering this season around Joey Essex???? What is the reason????? Why must he know the babes they're sending in?; Joey not again I beg if I hear “I know her” one more time'.
'Why are they sending people Joey knows, this show is so rigged in his favor; Happy to be in the minority Joey Essex doesn’t know; They can locate all of Joey’s exes but can’t find any good looking black men?'
'Joey knowing all these girls is really annoying, am I watching TOWIE or Love Island; the producers bringing in another girl that Joey knows is so weird of them; Another one Joey. Who do you not know?'
'Did Joey submit a list of women he’s been with to ITV before this?; Out of ALL the hot people in the UK, Joey knows 2 in the villa and ciaron knows one. What happened to complete random, unconnected people?!'
It comes after fans branded Joey as 'terrifying' after he ditched Grace for new girl Jessy Potts last week.
During Friday's instalment of the ITV2 reality TV show, viewers saw Joey end things with Grace after she discovered he had secretly kissed Jessy, 25, on the terrace the night before.
Blonde beauty Jessy recoupled with Joey, but told the girls she is 'not naive' as she has seen Joey do 'the same to Samantha that he's now done to Grace'.
Joey had previously brutally dump previous partner Samantha Kenny when Grace entered the villa.

Fans took to X to say that the TV personality needs to 'act his age' as he keeps 'repeating the disgraceful behaviour'.
Later in the show, Joey and Jessy were seen relaxing on the pool sun loungers, when Joey asked her: 'Does it not make you feel uncomfortable that she is here'.
Jessy said: 'No I'm just aware she's not been the friendliest but I'm not uncomfortable but people have been talking that it's the second time you've done this...'
Joey replied: 'It's very different me and you compared to Samantha and Grace'.
But when the girls headed out for cocktails in the evening, Jessy said she is 'not convinced he [Joey] won't do it again, I'm wary of it.'
