How much are contestants getting paid for Love Island All Stars?

According to The Sun, returning islanders for Love Island All Stars are being paid £2000 a week to appear.
However, an insider has revealed that before the show starting, "Most of the returning stars have already filmed promo videos for Love Island All Stars but haven't signed their contracts.
"They are pushing ITV for more cash because they're saying £2,000 a week isn't enough," citing that as most rely on social media partnerships to make a living, their revenue will be down.

"The cast are clubbing together to try and put the pressure on but as far as ITV are concerned, the pay deal on the table is good and fair."
"Ultimately the stars going back on the show will have a major profile lift from going back into the villa - plus they're basically getting paid to go on holiday," continued the insider.
"They want the celebs to be genuine about having a second chance at meeting their soul mate rather than using the chance of going into the villa again as an opportunity to make money."

Although the contestants have filmed their promotional materials, they are insisting on a higher fee. Picture: ITV
