From fashion girlies to economics boys, the cast of Love Island are talented in all kinds of ways. Here is a rundown of everyone in the cast of Love Island 2024 who went to university, and where and what they studied.

Ahead of her graduation in 2021, Jessy posted a photo of her dissertation which was all about social media and influencer marketing. God she was ready for this world.

Ahead of going on the show, Trey said: “Something that a lot of women like that they wouldn’t expect from me but I’m a bit of a geek and academic. I’ve got a First Class Economics degree and have completed my Master’s as well. I also play chess and was in the chess club at university.”
Jessica Spencer
Casa Amor bombshell Jessica also went to university before her Love Island 2024 days. She studied in Leicester, and graduated in 2022. “Better late than never ;),” she posted on Instagram at the time, with a picture of her in a dress and a graduation cap. It’s not entirely clear what she studied there, but now Jessica works as a fashion stylist.
