It's... an actually rather paltry £10 an hour.
Apparently, the contestants have been shocked to find their fees will be so little.
According to Metro.co.uk, a source has revealed that the Islanders have been "in uproar" over being "paid so little for two days’ work." They added that many of them feel it "almost isn’t worth hours of awkward conversation with your ex," which, of course, will be the cast for a lot of them.
They said, "A few have even discussed dropping out to avoid any unnecessary aggravation. The low fees have also upset their agents, who are used to dealing with much bigger contracts."
