ITV's Love Island host Laura Whitmore confirms new series twist as public asked to 'play Cupid'

Love Island host Laura Whitmore has revealed the first twist of the upcoming series. The girls have been told that they won't be able to pick who they want to couple up with.

The ITV2 producers are mixing things up this year, asking the public to 'play Cupid'. Laura told the girls in the Mallorcan villa: "You thought you'd all be stepping forward for the boys that you fancy the most.

"However, for the first time, we asked the public to play Cupid instead and pick the boy they thought each of you should couple up with." As reported by the Mirror, this means that Paige Thorne, 24; Indiyah Polack, 23; Tasha Ghouri, 23; Gemma Owen, 19 and Amber Beckford, 24, don't have a say in the matter.
