We all know once Love Island stars leave the villa, they can make quite a killing on social media.

However, many who are already on the show have done very well for themselves pre-villa life.

Pricing specialist Idealo have delved into the career histories of some of the contestants, listing who had been making the highest salary.

This year the islanders range from football players to estate agents and waitresses- so let’s see how their earnings rank amongst the other islanders.

Kaz Kamwi – Fashion blogger - £57,200
