Love Island fans in wild ‘fix’ theory after bombshell’s connection to Maya Jama is revealed

LOVE Island has become embroiled in a wild ‘fix’ theory over the latest bombshell’s connection to Maya Jama.

PE teacher Omar Nyame, 25, sent the villa into a frenzy when he was drafted in last week to ruffle some feathers.

But it soon emerged that he's friends with Stormzy, who happens to be host Maya's boyfriend.

While he reportedly went through the standard selection process, it hasn't stopped fans from setting the internet ablaze with their thoughts on his casting.

On a Reddit forum, one wrote this week: "Random thought, are strings gonna be pulled for Omar to stay in the villa for a while considering his connection to Maya Jama or am I just being cynical."

Someone else added: "While there's been nepo islanders before this is the first time one actually knows the host of the show."

And a third agreed: "Definitely agree, I have a feeling Omar will make it to casa amor though."

Others have questioned how he managed to get time off teaching to do the show.

Viewers have been moaning they can’t even take their kids on holiday during term time without getting in trouble.

One person commented: “Can’t take my Daughter on holiday without being fined BUT a PE teacher can go on Love Island.”

Another person wrote:  “Ermmmmmm hold on sunny Jim….. Teacher is having time off for a bit of Love Island but I’ve got an attendance officer patronising me because I’m not willing to pay an extra £2k on a holiday in the summer break. Make it make sense. Fine him and his parents."

“PE TEACHER??? I hope he’s getting fined for going on holiday out of school term,” added another.

While someone else said:  "So parents can't take their kids on holiday during term but a teacher can go on Love Island."

Others were quick to defend him and point out that he could be a qualified PE teacher, who just isn’t currently working.

In the past other teachers who have done the show have been granted permission from their schools to look for love on TV.

Other teachers to appear on the show include Kai Fagan, who won, and Hugo Hammond.

From August this year, the fine for absences will up to the school to consider - when a child has missed 10 or more sessions for unauthorised reasons.

And the fine will be £80 if paid within 21 days, or £160 if paid within 28 days - this is issued to EACH parent.

Omar entered the villa with a bang last week when he took Mimii Ngulube on a date – just moments after she nearly lost her place.

Despite his attentions Mimi made it clear she was still set on Ayo, but his head has been turned by another bombshell, Uma Jammeh.

And last night, things took a dramatic turn when Ayo decided to snog Uma infront of the other islanders.

The model was asked to kiss who was "100 per cent his type on paper" - and had no issues locking lips with Uma, despite still insisting he was keen on exploring things with Mimii.
