LOVE Island fans spotted a nod to Molly-Mae Hague in the villa – but did you spot it?
The 23-year-old took part in the ITV2 reality show back in 2019.
Love Island fans pointed out a nod to Molly-Mae Hague in the villa tonight
The star took part in Love Island three years ago
Since her stint in the villa, Molly has become one of the most successful islanders of all time.
As the sexy singletons all got ready for bed during this evening’s instalment, Kygo’s song Love Me Now was played in the background.
The tune starts with artist Zoe Wees singing “only 24 hours in the day” .
The choice of song sent viewers into a frenzy as they pointed out that it made reference to Molly’s previous comments on The Diary Of A CEO podcast.
One wrote on Twitter: “I did not just hear a song saying “there’s only 24 hours in a day” Molly mae is with us #LoveIsland.”
A second said: “‘only got 24 hours in a day” no way did they use Molly-Mae’s fave song in the background #loveIsland.”
A third added: “ain’t no way did the song playing in the background say you only got 24 hours in a day.”
“‘only 24 hours in a day’ and the spirit of molly mae lives on… #LoveIsland,” a fourth chimed in.
Back in January Molly came under fire for comments she made about her success after insisting “we all have the same 24 hours in the day” in a podcast.
Molly has seen her career as an influencer reach new heights since the show, she’s launched her own fake-tan brand and has also become the creative director of Pretty Little Thing.
The businesswoman is thought to be worth around £2million, with the PLT deal being worth seven figures.
Despite this, Molly was branded “tone deaf” by some after comments on The Diary Of A CEO podcast in which she hit out at past criticism.
She said: “You’re given one life and it’s down to you what you do with it. You can literally go in any direction.
“When I’ve spoken about that in the past I have been slammed a little bit, with people saying ‘it’s easy for you to say that because you’ve not grown up in poverty, so for you to sit there and say we all have the same 24 hours in a day is not correct.’
“But, technically, what I’m saying is correct. We do,” the TV personality continued.
“So I understand that we all have different backgrounds and we’re all raised in different ways and we do have different financial situations, but I do think if you want something enough, you can achieve it.
“It just depends to what lengths you want to go to get where you want to be in the future. And I’ll go to any lengths.
“I’ve worked my absolute a**e off to get where I am now,” she concluded.
Molly later apologised for her controversial comments.
She said: “I wanted to come back on online today as normal but I feel like before I do I just wanted to say this…
“When I say or post anything online, it is never with malice or ill intent.
“I completely appreciate that things can affect different people in different ways however I just want to stress that I would never intend to hurt or upset anyone by anything that I say or do.
“I apologise to the people that have been affected negatively or misunderstood the meaning of what I said in the podcast.
“The intentions if the podcast were only ever to tell my story and inspire from my own experience.”
- Love Island continues on ITV2 on Sunday at 9pm
