ITV declined to comment when contacted by MailOnline.

The hit ITV2 reality show returns to screens on June 3, with host Maya Jama introducing the new singletons.

It comes after MailOnline revealed that Love Island bosses have also signed up a stunning model, who is already being followed by the likes of Molly-Mae Haag and Conor McGregor.

Influencer Grace Jackson, 25, from Manchester, will enter the Mallorca villa when the show kicks off next month – and bosses are ‘excited’ she is joining the line-up.

With almost 80,000 followers on Instagram, Grace already has a significant fan base and is used to being behind the camera thanks to her collaboration with Fashion Nova and Savage X Fenty, Rihanna’s lingerie brand.

She is signed to Manchester-based agency MM Models and her regularly updated Instagram page is flooded with glamorous bikini photos.

A source told MailOnline: ‘The Love Island producers are very excited about Grace. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also fun and looking for her dream man, so hopefully he will be the perfect contestant.”

Welsh rugby player Ciaran Davies will also star in the upcoming summer season, with an insider telling The Sun that his ‘fit athletic body’ is guaranteed to seduce the female islanders.

The new cast of dating hopefuls will fly to Mallorca this week ahead of the show’s launch on Monday, June 3, which will be presented by host Maya Jama.

On Wednesday, Maya, 29, was filmed telling King Charles about her role in the ITV2 series at the Creative Industries Garden Party at Buckingham Palace.

After introducing herself, Maya explained that she’s a “reality dating show” host, before adding, “I don’t know if you watch that…”

King Charles replied: “One is born every minute,” as Maya continued to explain that she was about to fly to Spain to “film some new young people kissing somewhere,” as the royal family laughed at her comment.

The summer series follows Love Island: All Stars, where Molly Smith and Tom Clare, whose relationship is still going strong, were crowned the winners.

She has reportedly already secured a spot in the line-up as The Sun revealed she is already hooked up with ex-Islander Scott Van Der Sluis, who follows her on social media

She is also reportedly friends with former Islander Bayley Mummery

Since winning the title, Molly has signed lucrative deals with jewelery brand Abbott Lyon, fashion giant Boohoo and US fitness supplement Alani Nu.

MailOnline has contacted ITV1 for comment.

Last summer’s series was won by Jess Harding and Sammy Root, but the couple split shortly after winning the £50,000 prize.

Jess is in a new relationship with a man she has kept private, while Sammy has started filming scenes with the cast of TOWIE.

This year, the islanders starring in the show will continue to keep their Instagram pages ‘dormant’ to protect their mental health and the wellbeing of their friends and family.

In previous years, participants have suffered from trolls, with negativity consuming their profiles, to the detriment of their loved ones who were targeted with hate in their absence.
