And it could mean bad news for Jessy Potts, who is currently coupled up with Joey, 33.
Speaking before entering the villa, Lola said: "Joey is my type to a tee so it will be interesting to see if there is anything between us."
She added: "Joey’s head could turn and I’m going to try and be the one to do it so let’s see what happens."
And some fans were quick to brand Lola a 'red flag' after she confessed to never having had a relationship.
More on Joey Essex
One wrote on social media: "Lola claiming she’s never had a boyfriend because she’s fussy… girl you’ve never had a boyfriend because you are a CHILD."
Discussing her previous romances, Lola said: "I’ve never been in a relationship before and haven’t had any luck whatsoever finding love myself, so I think I could definitely benefit from some Love Island help.
"Love Island is a great opportunity as it puts you in situations you may not have had the chance to be in, so I’m hoping to get to know people that I may not normally meet. Now also feels like the right time for me so I’m excited to meet everybody."
Prior to the arrival of the new bombshells it was revealed Lola and Joey knew of each other before the show.
