Love Island's Molly-Mae Hague, who was famed for her iconic hair bun during this year's series, has revealed producers SET UP filming for a hair tutorial, after the reaction to her hair do's online.

Molly-Mae confessed to The Mirror that the producers must have seen the interest from millions of people on social media and asked her to educate those waching on how to get the perfect bun!

Revealing how she thought she was going in the beach hut for a chat, Molly-Mae said, "They pulled me into the Beach Hut to do that and I thought it was just a normal Beach Hut but they were like, 'No this is a hair tutorial'".

The 20-year-old went on to say, "I had no idea my bun had gone viral by then. The bombshells were coming in and telling me and I was like, 'You're absolutely joking'."

But it's quids in for Molly-Mae as the video went down a TREAT for those back in England, leading to lots of opportunities when she left the villa, after coming second with her boyfriend and fellow contestant Tommy Fury.

Alongside her collaboration with Pretty Little Thing, Molly-Mae is now an ambassador for Beauty Works and is releasing a curling kit.

Speaking about the collaboration, she said, "Everyone kind of went mad for my hair recently and everyone has been asking so many questions and stuff so it felt right.

"I can't wait to show everyone how I do it now because I do my hair myself most of the time and want to show people it's a lot easier than they'd think to do my looks."

And though she'd reportedly earning £500,000 for her PLT range and £300,000 for her Beauty Work collaboration, Molly-Mae has insisted she's not in it for the money.

She reinforced, "I've been offered loads more to work with others but I wanted to work with brands I actually love and actually believe in, I don't want to show people things like a teeth whitening kit just because I'm getting good money for it, it's not the way I worked before and it's not the way I'd move now."

Preach it!

After surfer girl Lucie coupled up with Joe on the first episode of the series, things seemed to get off to a good start... before Tommy entered hours later.


Tommy chose to couple up with Lucie, stealing her from poor Joe. He said in the Beach Hut, "At the moment the girl I want to pursue is going to be Lucie. She's a surfer, she goes to the gym. Her body is banging. She has beautiful eyes, a beautiful face, beautiful everything."
