New jobs to brand deals: All the huge career moves the Love Island 2026 cast have made already

For the cast of Love Island 2026, or most of them at least, their career will now never be the same. After being on the show, life completely changes.

The most recent crop of Islanders have only been on home soil for a couple of weeks, but they don’t wait around. They have to strike while the iron’s hot. Already, some of them have had brand deals, announced huge job changes, and are using their new-found fame. Here’s what they’re up to.

Just days after the final, Charleen was back to the influencer grind, and had bagged a brand deal. “Oh we’re soooo back,” she said in an Instagram post. “I’m SO excited to share with yous my third (wtf!?!) makeup collection with @kashbeauty launching August 6th, my fave one yet.”

Charleen has done a shoot for her range, which includes her own choice of lip products, blushes, and other makeup essentials. One of her previous ranges with the brand was a skin glaze, and beauty headband. She’s also had a range of lip oils.

Ope has landed a presenting role

I fear Ope is going to have a huge career ahead, and this really isn’t the last we’ve seen of him. He might have been dumped quite early on from Love Island 2026, but that doesn’t matter. To ITV, his charisma and talent was clear to see. The channel has hired him to work on This Morning.

Ope appeared on the show last week, when he presented a segment live from a staycation spot in Hampshire. He hosted from Sandy Balls Holiday Village, and was joined by people there enjoying their holidays. He played interactive games and hosted challenges with the holiday makers, in exchange for cash prizes. Get him on every day!

Lorenzo went and nabbed himself a slot with Vogue, literally as soon as he touched down in the UK. He went and worked with the publication, sitting down as an “agony uncle”. It suited him, it really did.

It’s been pretty quiet on the management front, and there’s been almost no talk of Islanders signing with agents. However, it would appear that Jasmine has a management after the villa. She was included in a roundup posted by RNC Global, a talent agency based in London.

Tommy was a semi-pro footballer before the villa, so are we surprised he’s not given that up in a hurry? He’s already back on the pitch, having played a game last weekend for his club, Witham Town Football Club.

He played a preliminary round fixture against Colney Heath, and his side won 2-1, which made history for the team. It’s now 20 years since Witham Town last exited the cup before the preliminary round.
