Maya Jama is reportedly not going anywhere after insiders revealed she has ‘signed up for another season of Love Island’, Daily Mail reports.
The popular ITV host, 31, took over the Love Island presenter gig from Laura Whitmore in 2023 and it looks like she’s here to stay, according to the report by Daily Mail.
Just hours after she wrapped up another sizzling season of Love Island All Stars – which saw Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davis crowned winners – reports emerged that Maya will be back for another summer series.
‘Love Island wouldn’t be the same without Maya so bosses are thrilled to confirm she’ll be in Majorca this summer,’ a source told The Sun.
‘She remains one of the most-loved things about the show.’
It comes just hours after the stunning presenter suffered an awkward blunder live on air just moments before she announced the winners of Love Island: All Stars on Monday night.
The host accidentally mistook Ciaran Davies, 23, for Curtis Pritchard, 30, when she addressed the public that it was just between Samie Elishi, 26, and Ciaran and Millie Court and Zac Woodworth.
In the clip, Maya said: ‘Samie and Curtis, Millie and Zac – make some noise.’
Shocked, Samie and Ciaran fell about laughing, before Maya interrupted: ‘Samie and Ciaran. I’m sorry. The fridge was on my brain’.
Curtis, who exited the villa a few weeks ago after failing to spark up a romance with Millie Court, was back to watch the final and this may have been why Maya got confused.
Samie and Ciaran coupled up soon after she entered the villa as a bombshell, and despite many late arrivals and twists, the pair’s romance was the strongest of the series.
Speaking to host Maya Jama ahead of their win, Ciaran confessed he knew Samie was ‘a bit of him’ mere minutes after she entered the villa.
Samie agreed, admitting that while there were other male bombshells who entered the villa, none of them turned her head.
She added: ‘No offence to anyone who came in but they didn’t even touch the sides compared to Ciaran.’
It wasn’t a smooth ride for the pair, as Ciaran was briefly coupled up with Lucinda after she entered the villa, leading to tensions between the two girls, which culiminated in a huge row after the Snog, Marry, Pie show challenge.
Ciaran said: ‘Looking back at it, me and Samie have spoken about this and to see her that upset, I didn’t realise at the time how upset I made her, until two weeks after, which was really hard to hear, especially from Sophie and Josh as they said the same thing.’
Before being announced as runners-up, Millie revealed that Zac was hoping to spend a ‘month or two’ with her in the UK, and she had plans to reunite with him in the US.
