All the Love Island contestants who quit fame after taking part in the show

There’s more than you may think


Appearing on Love Island may seem like a golden ticket into fame, but that isn’t always the case for a lot of people to take part on the show. If you can believe it, some people genuinely try and find love and when that doesn’t work out they go back to their lives as it was before the show.

There are a number of people who went on Love Island and even made it all the way to the final but quit the life of influencing and reality TV and just went back to their jobs and carried on with their normal lives without cameras following them around all the time. So who are they? While some have quit fame to pursue other career paths, others have quite influencing altogether and are just minding their own business.

Here are all the Love Island contestants who quit fame after appearing on the show.

Lauren Richardson

Lauren Richardson appeared on the first season of Love Island and even came in third place, however she has taken a step back from the limelight and now works as a PE teacher.

Lauren kept a low profile on social media for years but in nowadays she posts health and wellness tips and shows off her progress at the gym. Lauren has 79,500 followers on Instagram and seems to be having an all round good time. It doesn’t seem she has a partner at the moment either.

Maxwell Samuda

Maxwell was on winter Love Island 2023 and coupled up with Olivia Hawkins during Casa Amor. Since appearing on the show, Maxwell has revealed he won’t be pursuing a famous career and instead he’s going to pursue a career in finance.

Maxwell studied finance at university and revealed to Johnny Seifert he has a job lined up.

“Right now the way that I see things is if I can have a bit of a combination with both of these areas at the moment then that would be amazing,” he said.
