In adverts scheduled to air during Emmerdale on Monday night, TV presenter Jama appears with brunette wavy locks and wearing a glittery jumpsuit, seemingly adorned with a sketch of Cupid’s arrow.

Jama will host the ninth series in South Africa next month, and the usual summer edition in Majorca later next year.

The Bristol-born presenter was initially suggested as a potential host after it was confirmed that Caroline Flack would be stepping down in 2019, before the role was given to 37-year-old Whitmore.

Emmerdale screens at 7pm on ITV1. Love Island returns this January on ITV2 and ITVX.
