Olivia Attwood says 'consider me available' to host Love Island

Olivia Attwood said 'consider me available' to host Love Island following her recent success hosting another TV show.

The Bad Boyfriends star, 33, who tried to find love in the villa in 2017, became the face of her own show where she tries to whip a group of boys into respectful partners. 

Speaking to the Sun, she said: 'I have such an emotional connection to that show and the people that make it.

'Even if I had some reason, I couldn't turn it down because my heart would feel like: 'I'm going home! Back to the mother ship!'

'So if that day ever comes, consider me available.'

Despite saying she would be thrilled to take the job, she did share her admiration for Maya and said she is 'smashing it' as the host.

Olivia Attwood's Bad Boyfriends viewers say they're 'hooked' and are 'binge watching' the new show

Maya has been the host of Love Island since 2023, and her third series aired this summer.

She took on the role after Laura Whitmore quit in 2022. 

Since coming third place with her ex-partner Chris Hughes on Love Island in 2017, Attwood has stuck by ITV and become one of the most successful contestants from the dating show with various spin-offs including Chris and Olivia: Crackin' On and Olivia Meets Her Match.

In 2022 she crossed the veil from reality television star to fronting serious documentaries from an investigation into Gen Z's obsession with cosmetic surgery - going under the knife herself - to meeting her trolls face-to-face.

She is also a recurring panellist on Loose Women but it was in May that the Mail revealed Attwood had landed her biggest job yet - host of a new dating show, Bad Boyfriends.

In the space of six years, she had gone from contestant to presenter and has reportedly been offered a six-figure deal to front the series which wrapped filming in Greece earlier in the summer.

Confirming the news to her 2.2million Instagram followers, the London-born reality star said: 'Guys… I have been keeping a really big secret. BTS from my brand-new ITV reality show, you're not ready [I don't actually think I am].'

Last June she married her footballer boyfriend, Bradley Dack, in a lavish £200,000 wedding and she also told the Mail on Sunday that he was 'ready' for kids but she wants to concentrate on work.

When Olivia was forced to exit the I'm a Celebrity jungle in 2022 after less than 24 hours on the show she was devastated.

After being misdiagnosed as anaemic during a routine check-up on the first day she was ruled a health risk and flown back to the UK.

The star's early departure was a blow for I'm A Celeb as the Love Island star - known for her no-nonsense demeanour - was to be a sure hit with fans as she was set to challenge the disgraced former politician, Matt Hancock, who eventually placed third that year.

Meanwhile, Olivia was left feeling 'frustrated' and instead focused on fronting documentaries for ITV and has now reached such a level of success she is hosting her own show, Bad Boyfriends.
