Love Island: Amanda Holden says islanders only want to become famous as she bans daughter from show

Love Island has attracted the offspring and relatives of many famous names, such as Gemma Owens last year, Tommy Fury back in 2019 and Dani Dyer in 2018, just to name a few. But one name we’re unlikely to see on the show is Lexi Huges, if her mother has anything to do with the matter.

The BGT judge shared her thoughts with fellow Heart Breakfast show host Jamie Theikson, who also wouldn’t want his kids appearing on the show. Amanda said she doesn’t want her daughter, aged just 17, “anywhere near” the ITV2 dating show.

And the reasons behind the presenter’s adamant refusal of her daughter’s appearance on the show are pretty straightforward - she doesn’t believe the show is really for love, just for finding fame.
