Finally, it's extremely important to producers that applicants are willing to share, 'sensitive information.'
ITV elaborates, 'such as information about your background, health and dating preferences.'
This is all due to the nature of the dating show.
Could you be the next Greg or Maura?
You could be the next Greg O'Shea or Maura Higgins.
They both starred in the 2019 series of the dating show and became Love Island fan favourites.
Both Maura and Greg made it to the finals, with the latter bagging the £50,000 prize with Amber Gill.
You have until 30th April 2021 to submit an application.
