Maya Jama’s decision to leave the Love Island presenting team has prompted reports about potential replacements, with former contestant Chloe Burrows among the names mentioned.
Burrows was born in Bicester and appeared on the programme’s seventh series in 2021.
Jama announced the departure on Sunday night after presenting the ITV show since 2023.
She described her time on the programme as an unforgettable and enjoyable period, saying she would not change anything about it.
She also thanked those who had supported her appointment, along with the production team and viewers who had continued to follow the show throughout the years.
The former presenter said she began hosting at the age of 28 and met many people across nine series.
She reflected positively on the slow-motion walks, fire-pit gatherings and live shows, describing the experience as something for which she would always be grateful.
According to The Sun, producers are considering Olivia Attwood, Burrows, Indiyah Polack and GK Barry.
Attwood has been described as a leading candidate because of her close connection with production company Lifted and her attendance at a wedding for company bosses.
However, the report stressed that no choice has yet been made and no formal discussions have taken place.
Jama took over the main presenting role from Laura Whitmore in 2023.
During her time with the franchise, she also hosted the Love Island: Games and Love Island: All Stars spin-offs.
An ITV spokesperson thanked Jama for her contribution to Love Island over the past three years and wished her continued success.
Social media users have also proposed other potential hosts, including Australian Love Island presenter Sophie Monk and podcast hosts Ash Holme and Jack Remington.
Suggestions that Monk could take the role were linked to the Australian version being pre-filmed, which would allow her to appear in the live shows.
Other posts opposed Attwood taking over and called for an ex-contestant not to be appointed, while Holme and Remington were proposed individually or as a joint option.
The current Love Island format began in 2015 following the revival of a 2000s television programme of the same name.
Its contestants are singles who seek to form relationships while competing for a cash prize.
