How to apply for Love Island?
Fancy heading into the villa?
It's safe to say the 11th series of Love Island was just the drama we all needed! After eight amazing weeks, the series ended on Monday 29th July, as host Maya Jama announced that Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan had won a share of £50,000!
Now we know there's going to be a second All Stars series in early 2025, it looks like Love Island will also return in Summer 2025, with bosses now on the look out for applicants.
How to apply for Love Island?
If you fancy yourself as the next Molly-Mae Hague or Tommy Fury, you can apply for Love Island using the form on the ITV website.
The ITV website states: 'ITV2 are looking for vibrant singles from across the UK who want to head to the sun, in search of love. The chosen cast will spend time in a luxury villa, getting to know one another, but to remain in paradise they must win the hearts of the public and their fellow Islanders who ultimately decide their fate on Love Island.'
There are a number of eligibility requirements for those applying, including a strict stipulation that candidates must be at least 18 at the date of their application.
Applicants can't be currently employed by ITV or other relevant companies connected to the programme - nor can they be the 'immediate relative' or 'live-in partner' of someone who works on Love Island.
