The Islander's father Wayne speaks to MailOnline about his son's intentions after Love Island.

He says, 'I'd hope some more modelling opportunities will open up, and then I think acting.'

'He's got the confidence to perform. I can see him going down that avenue, definitely.'

Wayne goes on to reveal Connagh's a big Avengers fan, 'A huge Marvel fan.'

'I think this experience will give him a lot of confidence, and after this he will think anything is possible.'

Connagh's sister Elinor adds, 'His dream role would be as a superhero.'

But the question is: What role could he play?

Elinor says, 'If he could be in the Black Panther or something like that, that would be his dream.'

'Maybe Black Panther's son?'

Connagh with a 'g'

Connagh has caused a lot of confusion in the villa because he shares the same name as Connor Durman - kind of.

So his fellow Islanders have been calling him, "Connagh with a 'g'," in order to distinguish between the two.

His mother explains the reason behind the spelling.

Lynda tells MailOnline, 'I wanted Connagh spelled with a 'gh' because I wanted a Celtic-spelled name, because of my family origins coming from Ireland.'

'I was really surprised by the reaction, because there's many names today spelled and pronounced differently, and if that helps him stand out then great. I like it.'
