Love Island unveils Indiyah Polak and Sam Thompson as new podcast hosts and Aftersun stars

A former Love Island contestant is teaming up with a Made in Chelsea star to host a podcast and sister show for the hit ITV dating programme. Indiyah Polak and Sam Thompson have been unveiled as the new hosts of the Morning After podcast by the broadcaster.

It has also been confirmed the duo will also be on the panel alongside Bristol's Maya Jama - who has replaced Laura Whitmore as Love Island's host - on the show's sister show Aftersun. The announcement comes as the winter edition of Love Island prepares to make its big return to ITV2 on January 16.

Indiyah described it as a "pinch me moment'. Last year, Indiyah found love in the villa when she met Dami Hope during the summer series.
