Love Island fans have claimed they were left 'in shock' minutes before the second episode of the new series came to end. The hit ITV2 dating show returned to screens on Monday (January 16) with a brand new host at the helm.
Maya Jama has taken over the role from former presenter Laura Whitmore who announced her decision to leave the show back in August following the conclusion of the eighth series. But 28-year-old Maya was soon announced as her replacement and jetted off to South Africa to welcome a bunch of new singletons hoping to find love.
The ninth run, which is only the second-ever winter series, started with viewers being introduced to the 10 new islanders which include a James Bond actress, a farmer, and the show’s first partially blind contestant all entering the new plush villa that boasts an Olympic-sized swimming pool and new treehouse.
