Love Island's biggest ever twists from Maura being 'all mouth' to 'I came back to tell you I love you'

Love Island host Laura Whitmore has warmed the hearts of her fans on social media as she shared rare photos featuring her daughter on social media – with many fans commenting they couldn’t believe how quickly the little one has grown up. The 37 year old, who is married to Scottish comedian Iain Stirling, began hosting Love Island in 2020, following a successful career as a model, actress, and presenter on both television and radio.

Love Island is usually at its peak when the contestants are battening down the hatches for a storm - and by that, we mean a huge row. But can we blame it on the booze that got them feeling loose, Jamie Foxx style? As it happens, no, we can't blame it on the alcohol because Islanders only get two drinks per night in the villa. Which might come as a shock when you remember some of the greatest island arguments, including Faye and Teddy and 'storm Anna' herself.
