LOVE Island’s oldest contestant Munveer Jabbal is used to the finer things in life – even rubbing shoulders with some famous faces. 

The 30-year-old recruitment manager will be entering the ITV2 villa in a week’s time for a summer of love.

Speaking ahead of the series premiere next Monday, Munveer said until this point his biggest claim to fame was having a famous pal.  

“I’m mates with Spencer Morgan (Piers Morgan’s son),” he said. “We met when I moved to Fulham in 2018.” 

Piers has previously been vocal about his distaste for Love Island, often laying into the series and branding it “moronic”. 

In his column for The Sun in 2022, he wrote: “Nothing so perfectly epitomises this ghastly, fraudulent, breathtakingly ignorant assault on our senses that sends such a diabolically damaging message to Britain’s youth about how to behave and succeed in life.”

But that hasn’t put off Munveer, who is on a mission to look for Mrs Right. 

Munveer added he was going on Love Island as “London dating hasn’t worked out for him” and he needs to find the right girl. 

“The opportunity to be surrounded by good looking people in a villa under the sun is an absolute no brainer!” he said. 

“I’m 30 years old and I need to start thinking seriously about the next step, and what better place.” 

As for what he’s looking for, Munveer added: “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.” 

Fans have already been scoping out Munveer, and believe he was “done dirty” by his promo pic which was released today.

Searching his Instagram account, fans said he was “way more good looking” than the photo made him out to be.

“This guy is sexxyyyyy, check his Insta. This photo doesn’t do him justice” wrote one fan, while a second added: “these photos never do anyone justice.”

Dancing On Ice winner Jake Quickenden even got involved, saying: “Bro it’s like the photographer pics the worst pic on purpose”

The full cast line-up was announced this morning, and includes a trainee nurse, a make-up artist, two footballers and a professional dancer. 

Maya Jama will be back to guide the islanders through their quest for love, and a £50,000 prize fund. 

On Sundays, she will host spin-off chat show Aftersun to recap the week’s events, and talk to dumped islanders as they return home. 

The star will be joined by an all-star panel including former islanders Indiyah Polack, Chris Taylor and Amy Hart, as well as Jordan Stephens and Sam Thompson. 

Love Island 2024 kicks off June 3 at 9pm on ITV1, ITV2 and ITVX.

The Sun revealed how Love Island has reportedly signed stunning Patsy Field, who is an Influencer with a disability.

This means one of her arms is shorter than the other and has less function.

She has spoken out on social media about her disability in the past.

She said: “One thing you guys don’t know about me is I have a disability. I have never spoken about it on here before because I am a bit self-conscious about it to be honest.

“Pretty much everyone says they don’t notice it, or they have never noticed it before but once I tell you go back and look through my old videos, you’ll be able to spot it.”

Samantha Kenny

Samantha Kenny from Liverpool could be entering the Love Island villa this summer.

The 27-year-old works in a beauty salon as a make-up artist.

Samantha is no stranger to social media as she’s often seen posting on Instagram.

Ciaran Davies

Welshman Ciaran Davies is set to enter the Majorca villa.

A source told us: “Ciaran caught the eye of Love Island bosses immediately.

“He’s gorgeous with a fit athletic build that will send the girls in the villa wild, but he’s also a sweet boy next door from Wales to boot.

“He’s the kind of lad you could happily take home to your mum.

“He’s been in talks with bosses for weeks and is set to jet out to the villa in Majorca in the coming week or so.”
