Love Island star Molly Marsh has snagged a six figure deal with a huge fashion brand, just four days after she entered the Love Island villa.
The actress and musical theatre star has been offered a deal from a British fashion label, with others clamouring to sign her for clothing, jewellery and beauty deals. Already earmarked as a standout star, the deals are a step up from those of the Winter Series earlier this year that didn't spark interest from any big brands.
The 21-year-old blonde beauty from Doncaster, who is paired up with Mitchel Taylor, has already become a viewer favourite with the couple tipped to win already.

"It was a far cry from the heady days of Ekin-Su, Paige, Indiyah, Gemma and Tasha all inking contracts for fashion and beauty immediately after they left the villa. But Molly seems to have awakened the thirst from brands to work with Islanders and already has a number of offers on the table.

"The biggest is a six-figure fee from a big fashion brand. Molly has huge appeal for brands - she is likeable and down to earth with good family values as well as of course being gorgeous."
Whilst the fashion brand is not yet confirmed, it's thought it will only add to the overnight success that Molly is already seeing. The pantomime actress joined the ITV reality show with just over 42,000 followers on Instagram, which quickly rose to almost 75,000 after she appeared in the starting line up in the villa.
Molly, who is the daughter of Coronation Street star Janet Marsh, has also admitted to having links to previous year's contestants as she revealed she's previously dated boxer Tommy Fury - before he met and settled down with Love Island girlfriend Molly-Mae in the 2019 series.
Molly-Mae is one notable star who went on to sign a huge fashion deal upon leaving the series, with the 24-year-old now a Creative Director at PrettyLittleThing.
Previous Love Island stars have also typically signed fashion deals with fast fashion brand,s including 2022 winner Ekin-Su who became the face of Oh Polly!
However, less than a year later Ekin-Su has been dropped by the brand and is now said to be using the brand for breach of her £1m contract.
