'Love Island Australia' Islanders spot a paparazzo hiding in the bushes

Despite not being allowed to have contact with the outside world, the Love Island Australia singles in Spain have worked out that they're hot property.

In a Villa Exclusive, only on 9Now, one of the Islanders is beside himself when he sees a paparazzo taking sneaky pics of them from behind a tree.

"Oi we've got some paparazzi," Elias shouts out to the other Islanders. "You can see him, sitting down there with a camera."

Elias then yells out to the photographer, "I can see you, mate", to which the man pops his head out from behind the lens, flashes a cheeky grin and gives Elias a thumbs up. 

The other Islanders then get excited -- it's their first taste of the real world since they went into lock down before the show began filming last Sunday -- with one of the girls yelling, "I'm gonna flash my t---ies".

So far, there are 13 singles at the villa in Mallorca, Spain: John James, 32, Elias, 27, Justin, 27, Charlie, 22, Eden, 25, Josh, 25, Grant, 22, Millie, 24, Erin, 23, Cassidy, 23, Natasha, 24, Tayla, 21, and Kim, 21.

Love Island Australia airs Sunday – Thursday 8:30pm on 9Go! and 9Now.
