Corbin Mims entered Love Island USA season 8 as a new bombshell after a photo of him was accidentally uploaded onto the Love Island USA app and discovered by internet sleuths. The 22-year-old from Miami was identified by fans after the image briefly appeared on the platform before being removed, sparking speculation about who the mystery contestant was.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Mims is a recent graduate of Stetson University and co-founder of Caicos Exclusive, a company that helps people book luxury vacation rental properties in Turks and Caicos. Based on his Instagram presence, he’s also passionate about fitness. His Instagram comments have been set to limited, which aligns with the show’s social media policy that prohibits contestants from posting during filming.
In the promo for the June 5 episode, Mims can be seen making out with fellow bombshell Kayda Bosse, who was already coupled up with Zach Georgiou at the time of his arrival. His entry into the villa shakes up the existing couples, including Aniya Harvey and KC Chandler, Beatriz Hatz and Gabriel Vasconcelos, Bryce Dettloff and Trinity Tatum, and Melanie Moreno and Sincere Rhea.
