Love Island 2024 full lineup has been revealed
ITV's Love Island is soon to be back on our screens on 3 June and we couldn't be more excited if you paid us.
At long last, the 12-man cast of hot and hopeful singles has finally been revealed and it already looks like it's going to be another wild summer.
The brand new series of the iconic reality TV dating show will take place in a villa in Mallorca for another year, and of course the beautiful Maya Jama has been handed the presenting reigns once again.

The last installation of the Love Island franchise, Love Island: All Stars, saw Molly Smith and Tom Clare take home the win to the delight of viewers.
The pair are still very much together, with their relationship having gone from strength to strength and treating fans to a string of loved-up holiday snaps from all over the globe.
While we're so happy for them of course - we are very excited about the forthcoming series...
So, without further ado, here's the 2024 contestants!
Munveer Jabbal, 30, Recruitment Manager from Surrey
One of the elder of this year's cast mates, Munveer claims he's already got a claim to fame, being best pals with Piers Morgan's son Spencer.
Now, he says he's ready to find Mrs Right.
He said: "I haven’t found the right girl, I’m quite picky and have high standards. Dating in London is horrible. You don’t know who’s single… but now you’re putting me in a place where everyone’s single so there’s no issues around that."
Patsy Field, 29, Office Administrator from Orpington
Speaking to press, Patsy explained why now is the perfect time to find her Prince Charming.
"I’m finally ready to find a sexy man and I think Love Island may just have some nice hunky guys for me," she admitted.
"I think now is the right time as I’ve got a few greys so I need to bag a man sooner rather than later."
Ronnie Vint, 27, Semi-Pro Footballer from South East London
Ronnie says he's been single for some time now, after being guilty of putting his professional life before his personal life.
"I’ve had two serious relationships in the past but more recently have enjoyed being single and doing my own thing as I’ve been focused on my football career," he confessed.
"I’ve got to the age where I want to find the right person I can build a life with."
Nicole Samuel, 24, Accounts Manager from Aberdare
Like Ronnie, Nicole says she's spent the last couple of years relishing being on her own, but now she's ready to settle down... apparently.
"I’ve been enjoying single life and the attention of different boys, it’s fun," she said. "I’ve enjoyed being able to go on holiday with the girls and not having to worry about someone back home.
"All the girls are there texting in their room and I’m out till 4 in the morning living my best life."
Samantha Kenny, 26, MUA from Liverpool
Samantha is adamant that her fiery scouse personality will shake up the drama in this year's villa.
"I think I will definitely bring some fire, I’m very opinionated and wear my heart on my sleeve," she admitted.
"I’m really bubbly too so I’ll definitely have a laugh as well as bringing some scouse glamour."
Ciaran Davies, 21, Surveyor from South Wales
One of this year's youngest stars, Ciaran already has a connection to a former Islander and fellow Welshman.
"When I was in Malia on a boys holiday I pretended to be Liam Reardon from series 7 to get into a club because they wouldn’t let us in," he revealed.
"It worked and we ended up getting a private booth and free drinks all night."
Mimii Ngulube, 24, Mental Health Nurse from Portsmouth
Asked whether she's keen to start some drama in the villa, self-professed 'girls' girl' Mimii says she'll simply be honest about her feelings.
"My girls are my rocks and I’m theirs so I’ll be a good friend as well as going in there to find a man," she claims.
"I like dressing up so I’ll bring style, and I’d like to think I’m quite funny so I’ll make people laugh. Bringing honesty as well - I’m good at picking up on people's personality traits and side-eyeing those who might be a liar."
Sam Taylor, 23, Hair Stylist from Chesterfield
Apparently, the wisest member of our LI squad so far is hair stylist Sam, who has one important message for viewers.
"I’d say not to judge a book by its cover because how I look compared to what I do for work might not necessarily add up," he explained.
"You wouldn’t look at me as a tall guy covered in tattoos and think that I make girls' hair look pretty for a living."
Ayo Odukoya, 25, Model from Canning Town
Asked what makes him such a catch, Ayo insists it's his energy - something he hopes can be matched in a potential partner.
"I feel like the way I carry myself is very respectful and I think people take to that and once you show who you are to somebody you get it back tenfold," he explained.
"The way I am gives off a good enough energy for people to feel comfortable around me."
Jess White, 25, Retail Manager from Stockport
When it comes to Jess' future hubby's attributes, she's got a pretty strict checklist...
"I would say nice teeth, I love a set of white Turkey teeth but a good set of Turkey teeth," she jokes.
"I would say personality traits, you have to be family orientated. I'm so close to my mum and I'd like my future partner to be really close with their family too.
"You have to be tall, you can't be shorter than me, I can't be having to question whether I can wear heels around you and what height of heels I can wear. If you're vertically challenged, it's not for me."
Harriet Blackmore, 24, Dancer and Personal Shopper from Brighton
Self-professed 'IT girl in Brighton', Harriet is prepared to do whatever it takes to make her match, but hopes not to ruffle the other girls' feathers.
Asked what she'll bring to the villa, she told press: "For the boys, entertainment, a bit of fun and flirting. I’ll definitely up the flirting. For the girls, I’m a really good friend.
"I’ll bring the entertainment for everyone in the Villa, whether that’s making the girls laugh or making the boys turn their heads, I’m sure that I’ll bring the drama."
Sean Stone, 24, Sweet Salesman from Hartford
While confectionary salesman Sean claims to be a relationship person, he says he's been unlucky in love in the past and is now setting his sights on someone that can satisfy his sweet tooth.
"I’ve always been one for relationships and when you have found someone you want to be with it’s the best feeling," he tells press.
"Now is the perfect time, the one thing that is missing is my soulmate."
So there we have our 12 Islanders, and we can already sense the Casa Amore drama.
Love Island starts on 3 June at 9pm on ITV2.
