Author: Alex RossPublished 20th Feb 2024

It's safe to say the brand new Love Island: All Stars was just the drama we all needed! After five amazing weeks, the special series ended on Monday 19th February as host Maya Jama announced that Molly Smith and Tom Clare had won a share of £50,000!

Now the All Stars series is over, bosses are on the look out for applicants for the 2024 series, as the usual format returns later in the year.

How to apply for Love Island 2024?

If you fancy yourself as the next Molly-Mae Hague or Tommy Fury, you can apply for Love Island using the form on the ITV website.

The ITV website states: 'ITV2 are looking for vibrant singles from across the UK who want to head to the sun, in search 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 and their fellow Islanders who ultimately decide their fate on Love Island.'

There are a number of eligibility requirements for those applying, including a strict stipulation that candidates must be at least 18 at the date of their application.

Applicants can't be currently employed by ITV or other relevant companies connected to the programme - nor can they be the 'immediate relative' or 'live-in partner' of someone who works on Love Island.
