ITV | Love Island stars pocket MEASLY £1.48 per hour

£1.48. £1.48 per hour. Just one pound and forty-eight pence per 60 minutes of work.

That, according to multiple reports, is the hourly compensation that ITV’s Love Island stars receive for their time on the show.

Said reports state that contestants get £250 a week – to cover rent, bills and other essential costs.

If that is broken down by the hours they’re on the show – as contestants they’re effectively performing all the time – it’s 168 hours a week.
