These are the biggest brand deals scored by Love Islanders

The era of entering Love Island because you want to find love is over, now appearing on Love Island is a carefully thought out career plan that can boost you career prospects and turn you into a millionaire. Whilst the majority of Love Island stars may not have found lasting love on the show, many have made enough money from sponsorship deals and business ventures to last them a lifetime.

Here are some of the biggest deals Love Island contestants have secured:

Paige Turley, Series 6

Formerly known for being Lewis Capaldi’s ex, Paige announced on her Instagram that she is releasing her debut single next Friday.

Molly-Mae Hague, Series 5

Molly-Mae is probably one of the most famous Islanders and she didn’t even win the show. After placing second in series 5 along with boyfriend Tommy Fury, Molly-Mae bagged a £500,000 deal with PrettyLittleThing and also became a brand ambassador. A source told The Sun: “Molly-Mae had a huge following even before Love Island, so they were desperate to land her, whatever it cost.”.

Since then, Molly-Mae has had several collections with PrettyLittleThing, including one where 100 per cent of the profits were given to Mind Charity after the death of former Love Island host Caroline Flack.

During her time on Love Island, Molly-Mae’s hair became her most defining feature with fans wanting to know how she achieved her hairstyles in the villa. Last year she became a brand ambassador for Beauty Works, a company that specialises in hair extensions (that Molly uses) and hair tools.

Molly-Mae has also launched her own business, a fake tan called Filter.

Maura Higgins, Series 5

Maura was a fan favourite in series 5, and was the creator of one of the most famous phrases in the series – “fanny flutters”. After leaving the villa, Maura signed a six-figure deal with Ann Summers. Maura’s openness about sex on the show led her to be the perfect choice for Ann Summers.

Maura also became a brand ambassador for Boohoo and has released a collection with them.

In June Maura announced her partnership with Inglot Cosmetics. She wrote in an Instagram post: “This feels surreal. I can’t believe that I’m actually writing this but…I am officially launching my very own 34 Piece Collection with  Inglot Cosmetics”.

Inglot Cosmetics have previously collaborated with celebrities such as JLo.

The Inglot X Maura Collection Part Two is now available and includes two eyeshadow palettes, eyeliners, and a mascara.

Molly Smith, Series 6

Molly Smith created chaos on the show when she entered Casa Amor and fell for Callum, leading him to recouple with her leaving Shaughna single. Despite all odds, Molly and Callum are still together and now she has signed an incredible six-figure deal with fashion brand I Saw It First.

Her first collection with the brand was called “Along Came Molly” and includes pieces for summer.

Chris Hughes and Kem Cetinay, Series 3

Kem won series 4 of Love Island with Amber Davies and Chris placed third with Olivia Attwood however the only relationship that lasted was their bromance. Chris and Kem were the original bromance of Love Island and they made sure to cash in on it.

In 2017 Chris and Kem released their single “Little Bit Leave It” which was interesting, to say the least. The single charter at number 15 on the UK Singles Chart.
