Love Island star to take step back from showbiz to ‘finish what he started’

Love Island star Tyler Cruickshank has announced he is taking a step back from showbiz life to complete his education and train as a solicitor, saying it is time to “finish what [he] started.”

The 26-year-old was working as an estate agent when he appeared on the ITV dating show in 2021 and eventually placed fourth with partner Kaz Kamwi. His time in the villa gave him fame and influencer status but he has now made a dramatic U-turn having decided to return to education.

Tyler took to Instagram on Tuesday to announce the news, saying: “So, as some of you will already know, I’ve wanted to go back and finish my studies for a while now. Law is something I’m extremely passionate about and I have always said one day I would want to go back to complete what I started.
