Love Island baffled as Haris shares bizarre dating rule and Maya Jama snub
Love Island fans were left baffled during the series opener thanks to one new islander's unusual dating rule.
Haris Namani, 21, revealed the specific requirement he has for the ladies in his life as he chatted with Maya Jama - even admitting it would mean he would turn down a date with show's new host as she doesn't fit the bill.

Things got off to a dramatic start thanks to the arrival of bombshell Tom Clare leaving one villa resident at risk of getting an early flight home and being booted off the show.
