Love Island 2019: Get to know dumped model Jordan Hames
He caused some drama in the villa!
Last updated 25th Jul 2019
After entering Love Island 2019 in the third week as a bombshell, Jordan Hames quickly got into one of the more established Love Island couples with Anna Vakili. But although things seemed to be going pretty well - with the pair even becoming official boyfriend and girlfriend - the relationship soured quite quickly.
Following a conversation with pal Curtis Pritchard, Jordan decided to explore his feelings for India Reynolds.... Without speaking to Anna first. The pair immediately split, and were dumped from the Love Island villa straight afterwards. Let's get to know Jordan Hames a bit better...
Who is Jordan Hames?
Jordan Hames entered the Love Island 2019 villa in the third week as a bombshell, but outside of that he's a model - unsurprisingly! Describing himself, Jordan said, "I bring something different to the other Islanders. I’ve got good energy, I’m really bubbly. I’ve got younger siblings I’m always teasing, so I think I’ll be a bit of a joker of the pack."
And what are his three best and worst personality traits? "My best are my jawline, my trainer collection and how laid back I am in life. I don’t take myself too seriously. My worst traits are that I’m quite clumsy. I was once on a first date, bought two cocktails, went to sit down and knocked them over. Sometimes I leave things until the last minute, so I’m often in a rush."
How old is Jordan Hames?
He's 24.
Where is Jordan Hames from?
Jordan is from Manchester.
What's Jordan Hames type on paper?
He says, "Someone who has got nice eyes, good energy and good banter, someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously but is career driven. I like them to be fiery. If I’m in a relationship with someone who says ‘yes’ all the time, I’ll just be seeing what I can get away with. I like someone spontaneous, I love travelling. I’m the sort of guy who will book to go on a city break on a Friday and then go on the Saturday."
And his turn-offs? "Girls with a really loud, annoying laugh. Over the top. I don’t like really overly dramatic girls. I like girls who are more laid back and chilled, like me. I don’t like drama or people who are high maintenance."
Jordan already has his eye on Anna, Amber, Molly-Mae and Elma in the villa, but added that he likes "all of them" and is "greedy in that sense". Uh oh!
Who is Jordan Hames' celebrity crush?
"Jennifer Lopez, always. She’s got a nice tan, good body, she’s talented."
Who was Jordan Hames coupled up with in the Love Island villa?
Before Jordan even entered the villa, he had his eye on Anna Vakili. Once he got in there, Jordan and Anna coupled up almost straight away. Although Anna returned from Casa Amor with Ovie Soko, she quickly realised there was no spark with him and the couple reunited.
Although Anna and Jordan were happy for a few weeks, and made things official in the second-to-last week of Love Island 2019 to become boyfriend and girlfriend, Jordan's head was turned at the last minute to India Reynolds.
After he approached her for a chat - before speaking to Anna - things did not go down very well between the pair, and Anna's sister Mandi Vakili took to social media to brutally slam Jordan. They broke up immediately after, and were dumped from the villa on Wednesday 24th July.
What did Jordan Hames have to say after being dumped from the villa?
Jordan did not have ANY regrets from the villa, saying, "Me and Anna got on really well, she’s a beautiful girl. She’s got a lot of things I love in a girl but when someone else came in, it made me sit back and think that I could have something missing with Anna. To sum up the experience, it was unreal and I was lucky to have the opportunity. I feel thankful!
"I have zero regrets whatsoever. Ever since I walked into the villa, I was attracted to Anna from the start and throughout the whole process and when I made her my girlfriend, it was because all the signs were there for me to make her my girlfriend.
"I’ve still got feelings for her, she’s a great girl and she is beautiful. I just had this feeling which made me sit back and think something was missing, I just felt like I had to voice it. Everything I have done has been based on the way I was feeling. In that environment, your emotions can change quite quickly."
On how he feels about Anna now, Jordan said, "I think Anna is a great girl. She’s beautiful. She’s got a lot of the things I do look for in a girl. I do think that because I was bouncing off India in the last couple of days, it made me realise there could be something that me and Anna were lacking.
"When the whole thing blew up last night, it did raise a few red flags with me with the way things escalated. I like to sit down calmly and find out what the problem is. I do admit that I didn’t go about things in the right way, but I feel like I don’t want to get in heated arguments because that’s not me.
"I don’t feel like I made any mistakes. Before I went into the villa, Anna was one of the girls I had my eye on and we hit it off straight away. We had our little blip with Casa Amor. When the new girls came in, I felt like I didn’t have anything as good with those girls as what me and Anna did, so I stayed true to myself.
"When India came in, it did surprise me a bit so I voiced my opinion. I didn’t go about it in the right way but everything I’ve done has been because of what I’ve been feeling. No regrets whatsoever."
Has Jordan Hames ever cheated?
He says, "For me it takes a lot to commit to a girl, so when I am single I will dabble here and then. But when I’m committed I am 100% loyal. But only if I meet the right girl."
And what about bro code in the villa? "Always bantering your mates at any time possible but knowing them well enough to be able to lend an ear or a shoulder when they need you. If someone’s official I wouldn’t go and steal their girl, but there’s a lot of ‘half’ relationships up in the air. I think there’s a gentleman way to go about things. I’m not one to do mates over like that. If I go for it, I’ll do it in the right way."
He also reckons he's got a few potential pals in there already, "Michael is very level headed and mature. He’s got the northern banter. Danny seems really sound, as does Anton. Curtis looks really welcoming too."
What did Jordan Hames say he would be like in the villa?
When asked how far he would go to get a girl, Jordan said, "I’m going in on my own, although I want to get along with the lads because I’m a lads’ lad, I’m there for myself so if I see a girl I want, I’m going to go for it."
What is Jordan Hames's claim to fame?
"Through modelling, I did the Adidas World Cup campaign and met David Beckham on set." Check him out!

Despite this, Joe chose Lucie in the recoupling, keeping the pair together.

Anton Danyluk and Elma Pazar
When Essex girl Elma Pazar entered the villa, she was impressed with 'gentleman' Anton. Despite Anton telling Anna he'd chose her to keep her safe, Anton went with his heart of coupled up with Elma.

Following their kiss in the challenge, Yewande chose to remain coupled up with fireman Michael, but it looks like these two are just friends, with Michael now setting his sights on Amber.
Tommy Fury and Lucie Donlan
When Tommy arrived as a bombshell with Curtis, he immediately set his sights on Lucie, who was coupled up with Joe in the first episode. He said in the Beach Hut, "At the moment the girl I want to pursue is going to be Lucie. She's a surfer, she goes to the gym. Her body is banging. She has beautiful eyes, a beautiful face, beautiful everything."
Curtis Pritchard and Amy Hart
Curtis chose to couple up with Amy, who had previously been coupled up with Anton. She told the Beach Hut, "I don't feel like I have to force anything with Curtis because it's all so easy so I'm hoping that he picks me. But he was just talking to Yewande again. So, I don't know."
Joe Garratt and Anton Danyluk
This meant that poor Joe and Anton were left on their own. Hearts across the country broke for Joe when Lucie chose to be with Tommy - his little face dropped!
Amber Gill and Callum Macleod
Amber and Callum stayed together after the bombshells arrived, although Amber admitted in the Beach Hut that she was also attracted to Tommy and Joe. Eek!
Anna Vakili and Sherif Lanre
Anna and Sherif chose to stay together, and even shared a bed! Sherif told the Beach Hut, "Last night was nice. I feel like me and Anna are on the same page. We're going at the same pace. She's a lovely girl all round. So, I'm chuffed. I'm really happy with the choice I made. The subs-bench worked out for me!"
However, Anna later said, "Sherif's like my human hot water bottle. It was nice. He's really good at the snuggles." Nice, but not hugely romantic...
Yewande Biala and Michael Griffiths
Yewande and Michael stayed together, even though her head had been turned by Curtis. She told the Beach Hut, "I think I do fancy him. He has amazing eyes and he is really nice."
Lucie Donlan and Joe Garratt
Lucie had previously described her ideal man as, "Blonde! Longish hair… just hair, a lot of hair. Like me!" It then came as no surprise that she ditched former partner Michael Griffiths for wispy haired Joe.
Amy Hart and Anton Danyluk
Amy and Anton seemed to hit it off straight away, with Anton clinging onto the former air hostess throughout out the whole coupling up process. After admitting his own mum shaves him bum, he was soon suggesting that Amy would shortly be doing the same.
The adoration seemed short lived, however, with Anton shortly wiggling his way into Lucie and Joe's blossoming romance.
Amber Gill and Callum Macleod
Despite looking quite happy together when they coupled up, things aren't looking great for our next couple, Amber and Callum. After ditching fellow islander Sherif Lanre for Callum, Amber went onto brand her new beau as being, and looking, "old". Ouch.
Anna Vakili and Sherif Lanre
After Amber dropped Sherif for Callum, he was quickly coupled up with other remaining singleton Anna Vakili. But it seems this may have been a match made in heaven, with Sherif shortly after admitting to the brunette babe that he already follows her on Instagram!
Yewande Biala and Michael Griffiths
So after poor Michael was dropped by Lucie, he was soon paired up with the lovely scientist Yewande. Later chilling by the pool, the two soon conjured up some chemical reactions of their own when Michael revealed he has a degree in bio-medical science. After revealing, "I'm a scientist. A biologist. I studied a bio-technology degree", Michael responded, "That's quite interesting because I did bio medical science at uni." Ooo!
