Chris Hughes has taken to social media to debut a new haircut which has left his loyal fan base divided.

The former Love Island star revealed his new bald 'do on Instagram earlier this week, where he filmed himself inside a football stadium on set for Rise Of The Footsoldier: Origins.

Chris is set to make his acting debut in the film, which is the fifth in the series, as a football fan. He will co-star alongside footballer Vinnie Jones, as well as actors Keith Allen and Terry Stone.

In the video, Chris told fans, "Here we are, look at this," as he panned around the stadium rubbing his hairless head. He continued, "Boys are in."

Alongside the clip, Chris wrote, 'New lid 🧢 On set #FootsoldierOrigins 🎥 @nicknevern @carnabyandy'. (sic)

In the comments, fans were quick to respond and opinions were mixed for the 27-year-old's new hair, or lack thereof it.

'Ooosh looks decent', wrote one follower, while another commented, 'Omg omg what did u do. No no I love u with hair. Omg omg 😢😢😢😢😢😢.'

Another fan even wrote, 'Thought it was @davidbeckham for a minute 😂😍'. (sic)
