Love Island Aftersun reveals new presenting line up as TWO TikTok stars join ITV2 show
LOVE Island Aftersun has revealed two new TikTok stars are joining the ITV2 show.
Hosted by Maya Jama, she’s joined once again by certified superfan Sam Thompson and former Islanders Amy Hart and Indiyah Polack.
New to the line-up are content creators Joe Baggs and Ash Holme, bringing even more heat to Sunday nights.
Broadcast live from London, the show promises to deliver juicy exclusives, behind-the-scenes gossip and big laughs.
Expect live interviews direct from the Beach Hut, former Islanders serving up unfiltered takes from behind the bar, as well as the first exclusive interviews with dumped Islanders.
WHO IS ASH HOLME?
Ash is best known as a content creator, but she also appeared on one of the nation's biggest talent shows in 2017.

Ash had an unprecedented run on British singing extravaganza The X-Factor in 2017.
She originally auditioned with her group NQ, who made it to Boot Camp before being dropped from the show.
But the star pulled off a rare move when she ditched her band for a new group.
The singer, who was 21 at the time, was kicked off the show but returned to join Simon Cowell’s imaginatively-named New Girl Band.
NQ impressed the judges with their performance of Hey Mama before getting axed, but Simon said he wanted to bring Ash back.
She looked slightly shell-shocked as she was led back on to the stage by host Dermot O'Leary after her group were cut from the show.
After a quick rehearsal, Ash then performed with New Girl Band, before Simon asked her if she was willing to ditch NQ and join them instead.
New Girl Band was put together by the media mogul just days earlier after all the girls were booted off the Boot Camp weeks earlier.
He had once hoped they could be a female version of One Direction, but they didn't take off as he hoped.
However, the group ended up getting knocked out at the Judges' Houses stage, with the contest being won by another Cowell outfit, Rak-Su.
Ash is the current host of Bumble’s My Love Is podcast.
She featured in an episode of Channel 4’s Get in the Van in 2023.
Ash took part in series four of Footasylum Locked In, which started on November 1, 2023.
The fortnight-long content creating contest on YouTube saw the cast of online celebs competing in various challenges to win the top prize of £10,000.
Since 2023, Ash has also hosted her own successful podcast series Antics With Ash, which is available on Spotify, Apple, Deezer, Podchaser, YouTube and her Instagram.
She has also partnered with huge brands like L'Oréal, Deliveroo and Amazon Prime.
While Joe became a household name for kicking back in front of the TV on Gogglebox.
He has since become popular for his podcast Not My Bagg, where he welcomes celebrities to spill the tea.
The Sun can exclusively reveal Maya Jama’s full squad for the summer includes a footballer, personal trainer and a series of stunning models.
But their beauty is more than skin deep, as ITV2 has amassed a group with real kudos.
Former fire-breather Sophie Lee has campaigned for real beauty since she was scarred for life when her act went disastrously wrong, whilst Alima Gagigo has a BA degree in international business.
