LOVE ISLAND bosses are in talks with Laura Whitmore about returning to the ITV2 show – after doing a U-turn on replacing her this year.
Chiefs were keen to bring in a fresh face to front the series, with Maya Jama, Maura Higgins and AJ Odudu in the frame.
But sources say there are fears of a backlash if they are seen to have dumped Laura.
One said: “The bosses are very aware that the show’s duty of care to its stars is under a lot of scrutiny.
“The possibility of replacing her on the Love Island spin-off show, After Sun, was also mentioned. But that could have the same reception.
“The more cautious among the show bosses seem to be getting their way, and talks have now begun with Laura and her reps.
“It looks like she will be back this year, even though the vote in her favour is far from unanimous.”
