Love Island bosses in talks with THIS former Big Brother star for 2019 series 👀
Ooo!
Author: Alex RossPublished 16th Apr 2019
With the Easter Bank Holiday weekend just days away, the return of Love Island is getting CLOSER and CLOSER, so it's no real surprise that rumours are rife as to which young, free and single fitties will be joining the villa.
As we count down the days until June, when the popular show is expected to return with Caroline Flack, it's being reported that former Big Brother contestant Lotan Carter is being lined-up by bosses.
You'll remember stripper Lotan, who has his penis insured for £12 million (yes really), from the 2017 series of BB, where he was removed from the famous house for 'aggressive behaviour'.
But now, it looks the FIT LORD will be making a return to TV, with a source revealing the model is 'really up for it'. The source also admitted Love Island producers think Lotan will bring great drama to the show, as he's got a lot of stories about celebs.
Check out which Love Island couples are still together, and which aren't:
Hannah Elizabeth and Jonathan Clark (2015): SPLIT
Remember when they, like, got engaged on the show? That one didn't quite last...

Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer: SPLIT
Although they briefly split in 2018, in April 2019, Jack Fincham announced he was no longer in a relationship with Dani, just hours before her book launch. (OUCH).
Hannah Elizabeth and Jonathan Clark (2015): SPLIT
Remember when they, like, got engaged on the show? That one didn't quite last...
Katie Salmon and Adam Maxwell (2016): SPLIT
Adam claimed he was '100 percent single' shortly after leaving the villa and, um, that was that. #Kadam; gone but never forgotten.

An absolute success story of Love Island 2017, Jamie and Camilla and Jamie are still the CUTEST of couples.
Sam Gowland and Georgia Harrison (2017): SPLIT
Sam seems to be doing alright for himself on Geordie Shore, so we don't think he's too gutted.
Olivia Attwood and Chris Hughes (2017): SPLIT

Malin Andersson and Terry Walsh (2016): SPLIT
He did date fellow Love Island-er Emma-Jane Woodhams eight months in actual real life before calling it a day. AH WELL.

At least they lasted 18 months. Not bad going...
Jessica Hayes and Max Morley (2015): SPLIT

Before appearing on Big Brother, Lotan performed with The Dreamboys, but he was later let go by the show following his performance in the BB house.
The model is now currently working on the UK version of Channing Tatum's Magic Mike Live, with Lotan performing with the cast on Britain's Got Talent last year.
Despite the rumours, it's being reported that bosses at ITV are yet to decide which contestants will appear on Love Island 2019. We can't wait to see this year's singletons!
