This series will include Love Island's first ever partially sighted contestant, a TikTok famous farmer and Michelle Keegan's body double
Love Island will be back on our screens next week, as a host of brand-new singletons embark on their journey looking for romance. The highly anticipated ninth series will return to ITV on Monday, January 16, with new host Maya Jama at the helm.
The Essex-born star is blind in one eye due to a football injury when he was eight. He explained: "I went in for a header and got kicked in the face. I've got two different coloured eyes, one blue and one green. Will Young Will, 23, is farmer from Buckinghamshire who has previously struggled to juggle work with relationships. "Love Island will give me time away from the farm to solely go out and find love," he said. "I think I'm at the time of my life where I'm mature enough to go and find a wife."
Kai Fagan Kai, 24, is a science and PE teacher who is "looking for the right girl". The Manchester-born contestant says he is "single by choice" and admits his "high expectations" of women may have something to do with it. "I don't feel I should commit to someone unless I'm absolutely buzzing over them, because it's not fair on them," he said.
On how her friends and family would describe her, she said: "Energetic. I’m always running around singing and screaming. My parents are always like, 'Shut up!' I work from home all day so I don’t really speak to people in person for two or three days a week, so when my father comes home, he’ll want to sit down and chill out, and I’m there chewing his ear off! I would definitely say I am a chatterbox.
