Maya Jama has left the Love Island contestants in shock after announcing the arrival of the first bombshell of the new series.
The launch of the ITV2 dating show’s ninth series saw a fresh crop of islanders enter a luxury villa in South Africa on Monday night (January 16). As the islanders settled into their new home and began to get to know each other, the show’s new host Maya Jama made a surprise visit and broke the news of a late arrival.
The 28-year-old presenter, who took over from Laura Whitmore after she announced she was stepping down from the show in August, told the islanders: “As you know, this is Love Island and we always say expect the unexpected, and you never know when someone will walk through that door. The public have been voting on who should be the first bombshell to enter the Love Island villa. Islanders, get ready, this is Tom.”
