Fans are gearing up to meet new personalities as the ITV2 reality TV show promises a refreshing series, but the “Love Island” 2023 winter lineup is full of lookalikes. Check them out.
Last year “Love Island” attracted over three million viewers for its finale and recorded 250 million streams, pitching it as the most viewed series on the ITV hub. Following its successful ratings, ITV Studios managing director, Kygo Lygo explained:
This year, the reality TV show is taking place in South Africa with Maya Jama as the host. Expectedly, the 2023 contestants have already been unveiled. However, fans are shocked as the “Love Island” winter lineup is full of possible clones from previous seasons.
“Love Island” Winter Lineup Stirs Reactions From Fans
The “Love Island” 2023 winter lineup includes drop-dead gorgeous divas and handsome men with bodies to die for, but fans cannot get past their resemblance with former contestants. Via tweeter, one person quizzed: “is there a factory that the producers go to get human clones?”
26-year-old Tanyel Raven, who promised to bless fans with exciting drama, is last year’s winner, Ekin-Su’s doppelganger. The London hair stylist loves to rock her brown blonde in waves, while her Instagram photos show that she shares similar poses with her predecessor.
Tanya Manhenga, a 22-year-old Biomedical science student, is also a Yewande Biala lookalike. Biala, a 2019 hopeful, is alleged to be working as a scientist. Before becoming a “Love Island” contestant, Manhenga had racked up experience in her portfolio by working with Boohoo, and she managed by a talent agency, Muse.
Lana Jenkins, a makeup artist, and friends with celebrities, is a screen grab of Mary Bedford from season seven. With her long blonde hair, bright smile, and toned and tanned body, fans find it hard to believe she is not Bedford.
Kai Fagan, 24, who works as a science and PE teacher, can also be mistaken for Danny Williams’ brother. The duo share similar grins and body structures and are both from Manchester.
Like season seven’s Williams, Faga hopes to remain long enough in the house. Indeed, the “Love Island” 2023 winter lineup is full of doppelgangers. The list includes Ron Hall, 26, versus season 2’s Scott Thomas, Will Young, and Charlie Radnedge from last year, Anna-May Robey, and India Reynolds, season 5 third-place winner.
