We all remember Ovie Soko cooking up a storm in the Love Island kitchen – and now he’s set to do the same in the This Morning kitchen.
Tune into your TVs tomorrow, as the 6ft 7in basketball will join Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford to chat about his third-place finish with India Reynolds – and, most importantly, cook brunch.
Speaking about his appearance on the daytime show, Ovie said, ‘Message!
‘Cooking on This Morning is going to be dope, but I’ll need to graft hard if my infamous eggs are to live up to the hype for Love Island fans Eamonn and Ruth. They’re daytime royalty after all.’
And This Morning’s editor Martin Frizell spoke about his excitement for having the reality star on the show, adding, ‘Here at This Morning we pride ourselves on nurturing and developing new talent.
‘Ovie was undoubtedly one of the most popular Islanders this year and so we’re thrilled to have him on the show as a brand new guest chef.’
Here at Grazia, we only love Ovie more after he told us his respect to women is all down to his family.
‘I see myself as a person who stands up for what’s right,’Ovie exclusively told Grazia{
‘That’s more important than anything, than giving it a label – standing up for what’s right.
‘My dad, my brother, those are the two most influential people to me in my life. But you know – what is right is right.
‘Women should be respected; I don’t even see why that should be a discussion. It should be standard.’
Watch Ovie on This Morning, Thursday from 10.30am on ITV.
