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**
You didn't think they were going to let Joey Essex win 'Love Island', did you?
Bringing dumped former islanders Sam, Patsy, Munveer, Samantha, Omar, Harriett, Ronnie, Uma, Wil, Jess, Hugo, Grace and Reuben back into the villa was a contrived way of removing the 'TOWIE' star from the equation, but when the axe came down he looked more relieved than anything.
Of course, he still refused to go quietly, engaging in a heated discussion with Samantha before stepping out towards the sunset with Jessy, just in time for his birthday.
That means Ayo and Jess, Ciaran and Nicole, Josh and Mimii, and Sean and Matilda are your 'Love Island' finalists!
With tempers fraying, you've been able to sense the impending endgame for a good while now. Josh lost it when Sean likened him to a sour dummy in the talent show and wasn't prepared to let it go, prompting Joey to have a dig, referring once again back to Mimii's "secret mission" in a renewed effort to further wind Josh up.
Meanwhile, Ayo and Jess went exclusive, mere moments after it looked like they were destined for the scrapheap. The things you do for, ahem, love.
