ITV has officially announced the cast of the hit summer reality TV dating show, including the usual eye candy. Jess White, 25, wants babies with a family man while hunky hairstylist Sam Taylor, 23, turned heads with his tattoos.
A handful of "Love Island" 2024 stars hit the tabloids before setting foot in the villa. Dancer and personal shopper Harriett Blackmore, 24, was reportedly involved in a scuffle with a group of girls and a Premier League soccer star.
Munveer Jabal (friend of Spencer Morgan), mental health nurse Mimii Ngulube and office administrator Patsy Field sound like good value for money. Said Field: "I’m finally ready to find a sexy man and I think 'Love Island' may just have some nice hunky guys for me." Finally, some honesty.
The early favourites for the prize money are Welsh rugby player Ciaran Davies, 21, and Liverpudlian make-up artist Samantha Kenny, 26. Who will take home the £50,000 first prize? Here's everything you need to watch "Love Island" free online and stream episodes from anywhere in the world.
'Love Island' UK 2024 latest **Contains spoilers**
Boys, take note: that's how a grownup behaves. Despite being humiliated by Wil and worshipped by new boy Reuben, Uma couldn't bring herself to couple up with someone new this late on – and walked off the show.
The recoupling left Wil single, for which he's been dumped off the island, a fate he undoubtedly deserved. If he didn't feel any guilt over his Casa Amor improprieties before, he almost certainly will now. Then again, even by normal 'Love Island' standards, this crop of boys have been shockingly self-centered.
Fellow new boy Josh swept Mimii off her feet, with the duo's flirtations leading to the Hideaway and then the jacuzzi, but after using Blade in order to stay on the show, Grace is lurking with intent.
And her potential gain proved to be his loss, as Blade was duly given the chop, along with Jess, Hugo and Emma.
