Ranked: These are the biggest ever brands deals there have been with Love Islanders

Six figures here and seven figures there, it’s all in a day’s work


After they’ve been in the villa, the cast of Love Island become inundated with brand deals – and some of the biggest come with eye-watering price tags. It’s been known before that brands have literally had bidding wars with one another in a desperate attempt to bag an Islander as an ambassador or to be the face of a collection. The Islanders these days probably apply for the show for these opportunities more than the idea of finding love, which the show is meant to be all about.

Remember when Molly-Mae Hague turned down £2million to collaborate with a brand and said no because she simply didn’t like the clothes? It’s literally just a day at the office for these lot. Here is a rundown of all the mega-money, biggest brand deals there have ever been with the Love Island cast.
