New Love Island host Maya Jama has said agreeing to host the popular ITV2 dating show was a “no-brainer” as she has been a massive fan for years. The TV and radio presenter has taken over the role from Laura Whitmore who announced she was stepping down from the role after the summer series in August.
Maya takes on presenting duties as the reality series returns for its second winter series, set in South Africa, and the first since the coronavirus pandemic. She will also present the usual summer edition in Majorca later in the year.
She admitted that not all of her Love Island wardrobe is sorted yet, noting that her look for the famous slow-motion entrance is the one she has found most challenging.
