Love Island bosses ‘sign up hunky French model in the hope he will be the next Davide’

Love Island bosses have reportedly signed up a handsome French model ahead of this year’s summer series.

With just a week to go until the return of the ITV2 reality show on June 5, Mehdi Edno, 26, would line up to join the islanders.

Producers are said to be hoping the dashing Frenchman will become the next Davide Sancliment, after the Italian stallion won the last series with Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.

Mehdi is said to be ‘the definition of tall, dark and handsome’ and he certainly isn’t shy about flaunting his looks on social media.

In addition to posting brooding selfies for his 200 followers, the jet-setting European often shares snaps from his adventurous faraway getaways.

It was reported yesterday that beauty clinic owner Jess Harding is lining up for the reality show.

The blonde beauty, who owns Candy Aesthetics, is becoming one of “the most glamorous islanders ever,” according to one report.

The Londoner already has no less than 25,000 followers on Instagram and regularly shares snaps of himself on holiday in sunny destinations such as Thailand and Dubai.

Body-confident Jess — who makes a living injecting filler into faces — isn’t shy about showing off her figure either, with her social media dotted with jaw-dropping bikini photos.

A source told The sun: ‘Molly was scouted after a visit to the villa in South Africa earlier this year. She was touring as an invited guest when she caught the attention of producers.

Molly made it clear she would love to be a part of Love Island and she was told to audition. Having gone through the process, she is now a shoo-in to fly to Majorca later this month.

‘She’s a star on the rise and comes from a showbiz family – her mother Janet even had small parts in Coronation Street and Still Open All Hours. Molly has made it clear she has what it takes to make a splash and ITV love her.”

Molly is believed to have landed roles in national tours of Oliver! and Sleeping Beauty before trying her luck on the small screen.

The insider went on to share how thousands of hopefuls have now been shortlisted to 25, and the final version will be announced in a few days.

A source told MailOnline, “She’s in the mix, but not confirmed yet.”

It was recently revealed that Love Island will be returning to screens on June 5.

Presenter Maya Jama is back as the presenter after her huge success in the winter version of the show, which saw Sanam Harrinanan and Kai Fagan crowned winners.

In the summer version, a new group of singles will travel to Mallorca and stay in a luxury villa for two months.

Maya took over from Laura Whitmore to present series nine of the reality show.

That’s what a TV source said The sun: ‘ITV has already lined up with the islanders heading to the show’s villa in Mallorca.

“The cast will be flying out at the end of next month, ready for the show which starts in just eight weeks.”

They continued, “Maya [Jama] can’t wait to get started on this series. Having her on board has given Love Island a real boost and the ratings are expected to skyrocket.”

According to the source, the series will run for eight weeks, meaning the finale will take place in early August.

However, a second source claimed, “This is speculation as no dates have been confirmed at this time.”

Love Island currently airs twice a year on ITV2 and they are also preparing to air a middle aged version of the show called The Romance Retreat.
