LOVE Island fans have claimed that Molly Marsh has been brought into the villa by producers.
Molly, a 21-year-old musical theatre performer, is one of the sexy singletons taking part in this year’s summer series of the show.

But several shared pictures of her on two previous trips to the show’s villas – one in Majorca, the other in South Africa – have raised a few eyebrows.
One fan shared a snap of Molly standing outside the iconic villa on Reddit with the caption: “Apparently, Molly worked behind the scenes on Love Island.“
Some have shared their thoughts on her already being in the villa.
Another replied in the thread: “I have to say it she does feel a bit like a ITV production plant and tbh it’s kind of off putting.”
“They’re all production plants though. Quite literally,” a second chimed in.
However one pointed out: “Technically she’s an influencer who was invited to the villa to do a bts video to promote the previous season.”
Back in May HOAR revealed that Molly was in the official line-up after she hit it off with the bosses when she was invited out to tour the winter Love Island villa.
A source revealed: “Molly was scouted after visiting the villa in South Africa earlier this year.
“She was on the tour as an invited guest when she caught the eyes of producers.
“Molly made it clear she would love to be a part of Love Island and she was told to audition. After going through the process, she’s now a shoo-in to fly to Majorca later this month.
“She is a star on the rise and comes from a showbiz family — her mum Janet even had small roles on Coronation Street and Still Open All Hours.
“Molly has made it clear she’s got what it takes to make a bang and ITV love her.”
Molly recently broke her silence on claims that she’s a producer plant after it was revealed she has already stepped foot in the villa.
She told HOAR: “Being in the industry, I know the good that comes with it, I know the bad and I’ve had a bit of both already — it is in my blood really.
“I hope people don’t see me as a plant, I don’t want people to think that it’s been an easy route just because I’ve been to the villas.
“It has been a long and hard process. It’s been difficult.”
