Former Love Island Australia star Elias Chigros flaunts his ripped torso in a wetsuit amid rumours that he’s set to star in Netflix’s Byron Bay reality show

He’s rumoured to be starring in Netflix‘s upcoming Byron Bay-based reality show, Byron Baes.

And on Wednesday, Elias Chigros was spotted flaunting his flawless physique in the star-studded coastal town in New South Wales.

The former Love Island Australia alum, 30, sizzled as he stepped out shirtless after spending time at the beach.

His washboard abs, broad shoulders and bulging biceps were on show as he walked around in a wetsuit rolled down to his waist.

The Melbourne model and personal trainer appeared to have just gone for a surf when he was spotted.

Elias was then seen washing his feet and surfboard with water before removing the drenched article of clothing.

He covered himself with a tiger print towel, which left little to the imagination and put his toned legs on display.

Elias is rumoured to be starring in Byron Baes, which is being produced by Eureka Productions and has caused a lot of upset in the community.

A petition to boycott the docu-soap series is gaining traction after Netflix announced the town in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales would be the ‘perfect setting for our next Australian Netflix Original’.

The campaign to force authorities to cancel filming permits reached 4,000 signatures in three days, and some businesses have refused producers permission to film at their venues.

However, a growing chorus of residents claim Byron Bay was ruined long before TV producers came knocking thanks to its growing popularity among celebrities, influencers and sky-high real estate prices. 

Elias is rumoured to star on the series alongside plus-size model Jessica Vander Leahy.

Model Elyse Knowles shut down rumours she might be appearing on the show by recently sharing a video to her Instagram.

‘Just putting it out there, I am not on Byron Baes, no, no, no… I’m not,’ Elyse said in a video of herself while at the beach with her newborn.

‘I’ve given birth to a baby, got leaky b**bs, screaming at every hour during the night, I think I’ve got enough going on don’t you?’
