Kelly Brook is all smiles in resurfaced Celebrity Love Island images
Photos of Kelly Brook from the original Celebrity Love Island series have resurfaced, as the former glamour model revealed she is keen to host the middle-aged spin-off.
Kelly, 43, hosted the first-ever edition of the dating show back in 2005 alongside Patrick Kielty. She was at the helm for the first two series of the dating show before it ended in 2006 - later to be revived with regular members of the public.
The throwback snaps were first posted to the star's Instagram account, where she labelled them "Vintage @loveisland".
The series, held in Fiji, welcomed celebs such as Paul Danan, Michael Greco, Jayne Middlemiss and Calum Best in their quest for love.
Kelly's snaps showed the model wearing a number of low-cut outfits, often with her hair beautifully waved and tucked over one shoulder.

Another fan also gushed: "You still look fabulous! You are ageless."
Her upload comes after she put her name in the hat for the presenter's role for up-coming series The Romance Retreat.
ITV bosses are already looking for a number of single parents to enter a luxurious getaway in the look for love for the show.
Following confirmation of the new series, the radio presenter said: "I’ve got to do it. I’m sorry but I’m vintage Love Island. I did the first series. Hello?!"

Speaking to her Heart FM co-host Jason King, she also opened up on how she was pitched the original role: "She [the TV producer] showed me a map of what Love Island was going to look like and she pitched the whole idea.
"I was there at the seed of it. I was a consultant producer on the first series of Love Island!"

The new show will be a similar concept to Love Island but for older singletons (ITV)She told host Stephen Bartlett: "I could fill a villa in Love Island with middle-aged people with the best back stories you have ever heard in your life.
"They've lived a life – they're widows, they're people who have been through horrific divorces. They are people who have split up with somebody and decided they want to try going out with somebody the same sex as them.
"They're like interesting people. I'd watch that show."
