A whimsical Philip Schofield responded: 'He’s looking for a partner… for the sandwich business.'
A smitten Montana playfully responded by raising her hand and exclaiming: 'yes please!'
Montana, who famously enjoyed a brief romance with Alex Beattie on the show, was joined on the panel by 2017 champion Kem Cetinay.
Reunited: Appearing on the show alongside 2017 champion Kem Cetinay, she said: 'He had me at sandwich.'
Discussing contestant Anton's eye-watering admission that his mother shaves his derriere, Kem said he had partaken in leg hair removal in the past.
He said: 'They’re not shaved now but in the past I have because I thought it would look good…
Talking about Anton's bizarre hair removal, he continued: 'The weird thing is that someone has to do it…
'I would never ask my mum to do something like that, but it's nice they have that kind of relationship.'
Yes please: Philip Schofield responded: 'He’s looking for a partner… for the sandwich business.' A smitten Montana responded by raising her hand and exclaiming: 'yes please!'
Sorry, he's taken: Joe and Lucie have emerged as early frontrunners in the competition
Montana also weighed in on the female contestants - including Lucie - being bold and switching partners during the first day in the villa.
She said: 'I actually respect that, it was brave.'
The first episode saw bikini-clad girls sent into the villa first - having been transported in convertible jeeps, sure to make their excitable entrances and pop a prosecco cork or two in the process.
First in was Amy Hart - an air stewardess who claimed she 'was once invited to join the Mile High Club'.
She explained that she has been 'ghosted so many times my phone's like a Ouija board' and that she is looking for someone with 'a gym bod and dad bod' and that she has never had a boyfriend.

She entered the show alongside Amber Gill, a beautician who has 'never been rejected in her life'.
She also promised that if anyone nasty appears in the villa she will 'ruin their life', before referencing her 'miserable resting bitch face'.
Next was pharmacist Anna Vakili who exclaimed that she's 'never going to find someone at work because they're all old or sick, so not in the mood.'

She then compared herself to Meghan Markle, who married Prince Harry in her 30s. She said: 'My parents tell me, you're 28, you haven't got long left!'
Scientist Yewande 'researches vaccines for cancer' and 'never gets on with men on dates'. She entered the villa fourth, swiftly followed by surfer Lucie Donlan, who claimed that 'this Surfing Barbie needs to find a Bev [hot man]'.
It was then time to send in the men, who were tasked with coupling up with the ladies of the villa.
Anton Danyluk entered first and was chosen by Amy, who he decided to couple up with in return.
Next in was Sherif Lanre who wasn't chosen by anyone and so was left to select someone himself - going for Amber.
She later traded him in, however, for aviation technician Callum Macleod.
There was another swap when Lucie chose to couple up with fireman Michael Griffiths only to swap him with Londoner Joe Garrett.
Yewande ended up, by default, with Michael, while Sherif ended up with Anna.
