How much do people usually get paid to appear on Love Island?

For the usual cast members, applying for Love Island means leaving behind your normal job and life for a few weeks in the sun looking for love.

In this case, it's more about ITV covering expenses rather than paying an actual salary.

So, on a normal series of Love Island, contestants are paid around £375 a week which is typically used to cover rent and bills during their time on the show.

There is of course that lovely prize fund of £50,000 at the end too should the public vote you their number one.
