Recently, it seems that Islanders have been coming out and revealing the mental and physical toll that the series had on them. Last year Zara McDermott revealed the pressure of keeping a perfect body on the show, leading her to developing an eating disorder.
This year is going to be different, as one of the first names rumoured to be joining for Love Island 2019 is curvy young instagrammer, Jane Park. Reports are in that this upcoming series will make sure to feature a larger range of diversity in the cast, including people of different sexual orientations and body types.
After being slammed and blamed for Mike Thalassitis' death, it seems producers are really trying to make a change to restore their reputation.
Check out the video to see some snaps of Jane Park and see what we could be in store for in the upcoming series!
