Love Island’s Jonny and Sam Face Backlash Over Claims of Making £10m Since Show

Fans Accuse Jonny Mitchell and Sam Gowland of "Blatant Lies" About Their Wealth

Former Love Island contestants Jonny Mitchell and Sam Gowland have come under fire from fans who accuse them of telling "blatant lies" about their financial success since appearing on the popular reality show. The pair first met during the third series of Love Island in 2017.

From Failed Love Connections to Trading Success

Although Jonny and Sam failed to find lasting love during their time on Love Island, they turned their attention to trading and claim to have made millions from it. Jonny recently took to Instagram to share their journey, posting a video with pictures showcasing their lavish lifestyles. The caption read: "Met each other on Love Island age: 20 money: $600. Both had no purpose after Love Island, tried many businesses but failed. Started trading after Love Island age: 25 money: $130,000. We grinded for years… didn’t give up and finally made it. Age 32 money: $13,000,000. Find out how we did it."

Fans Express Skepticism and Accuse the Pair of Scamming

However, many fans were less than impressed with Jonny and Sam's claims. Some took to the comments section of Jonny's post to express their skepticism, with one writing: "real scammers." Another commented, "can guarantee you that, in fact I will happily bet you £1000 that if you paid to join that group you will lose money." And yet another added, "13 million my a**e."

Representatives for Jonny and Sam Yet to Respond

At this time, representatives for Jonny Mitchell and Sam Gowland have not commented on the backlash. It remains to be seen how the pair will address the accusations of dishonesty.
