Alan Loughnane

Applications are open…

Motion Content Group, the company which makes the hit TV show Love Island, are looking for contestants to be considered for the next season of the show.

In the application details, it’s outlined that:

ITV2 are looking for vibrant singles from across the UK who want to head to the sun, in search of a summer of love. The chosen cast will spend time in a luxury villa, getting to know one another – but to remain in paradise they must win the hearts of the public who ultimately decide who stays on Love Island.

As shown in this season, being part of the UK is not essential with Irish fella Rob Lipsett being a contestant on the show.

But don’t worry, you’ve plenty of time to get your application ready, as the closing date is not until April next year.
