Love Island's Dejon Noel-Williams has slammed nepo baby comments about his footballer dad and his show legend best mate. He is one of the new contestants trying to find love on the 2025 series of Love Island.
Despite having a famous dad, Dejon has denied that he is a nepo baby as he enters the the villa. He has now spoken about his footballed dad Gifton Noel-Williams who has previously played for Stoke City, Watford and Burnley.
Dejon works as a personal trainer and semi-professional footballer himself and has said his dad is proud of his own "football journey". However, he has now revealed that as a result he has been labelled as a nepo baby but hadn't heard the term used before this.

He was also asked about his friendship with former Love Island star Tyrique Hyde.
He said: "I've known him since we were kids, like babies. My dad and his dad played for the same team and they were best friends. As we got older, we had similar interests. We played for the same teams and we played against each other at football."

A whole host of new singles have been chosen to go into the villa to try and find love while also navigating the twists and turns of the show. The series will be filmed in its usual Majorcan villa but it has been given a spruce up since last year.
Producer Mike Spence said the crew have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure this season is one of the most explosive ever.
He said: "We're going to give it all we've got. What we have planned for week one has never been done before on any Love Island series ever."
The producer confirmed that there will be plenty of drama to get excited for and teased that week one will go down in history.

Love Island returns Monday, June 9 at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
