Known to many as the “Irish Zac Efron”, Cormac Murphy is an Irish model who rose to prominence on Season 1 of Love Island USA. Before becoming a break-out star of the hit CBS reality show, Murphy worked as a model with top photographers Frank Louis and Brian Jamie just to name a few and he became the face of men’s clothing website Differio. With over 44k followers on Instagram he has already taken the world of social media by storm. There’s also more to Murphy than his striking good looks and killer abs – his job as a nightclub promoter in Manhattan, New York has seen him rub shoulders with the likes of Conor McGregor and Anthony Joshua.

Born and raised in the town of Ennis in Ireland, Murphy spent two years in Australia before moving to New York after deciding the city was the best place to pursue his career as a model. Murphy began working as a nightclub promoter, also taking advantage of any modelling opportunities that came his way in Manhattan.

In 2019 Murphy made his television debut in the first season of the American version of Love Island which began airing on July 9th. After entering the villa on Day 4 he was later dumped on Day 11, but since leaving the show his popularity has continued to soar, and the world can expect to see much more from Murphy in the future.
