Maya Jama has officially been announced as the new host of Love Island. The presenter had been rumoured to have accepted the coveted role on the ITV2 dating show after Laura Whitmore quit following the latest series in the summer.
The hit dating show will return for its ninth series in early 2023 with a second-ever winter series before the return of the much-loved summer run later in the year.
Returning to South Africa for the first of two series next year, lovestruck singletons will be guided through the twists and turns of coupling up in the iconic Villa surroundings by the brand-new host.
