Love Island Average Location: London

London takes the crown by a mile, with a huge percentage of contestants from England’s capital city.

If you’re from Manchester or Newcastle then you also serve a strong chance of popping up on the show, with more Love Islander’s coming from the North of England than the South – if you were to exclude London.

Average Sex: Female

You may expect the male and female divide to be 50/50 yet it’s not.

There have been more females chucked into the mix over the three years, with the recoupling power remaining in the hands of foolish men.

Love Island Average Hair Colour: Light

In general, there have been more dark-haired contestants than light, although this isn’t the case for the females.

Love Island has been criticised for sticking to a ‘tall, dark and handsome’ stereotype in men and  ‘blue-eyed, blonde-haired women’ stereotype in women.

Nevertheless, we feel like there will be more of the same stereotypes in 2019!
