LOVE Island: Aftersun viewers have begged for Holly Willoughby to replace Laura Whitmore after making a surprise appearance on the show.
The This Morning presenter, 41, filmed a short clip for tonight’s game of Aftersun verses the Villa.
Tonight Gemma Owen and Paige Thorne joined Laura from the Beach Hut, where they were asked a series of questions about the Islanders.
For question two, Laura asked: “Which Islander is Love Island superfan Holly Willoughby describing in this clip?
TV presenter Holly appeared on screen saying: “This man is cheeky, charming and full of chat.

Earlier this week, The Sun revealed how Laura, 37, had decided to leave her Sunday morning programme on BBC Radio 5 Live.
The Laura Whitmore Show has been running for four years and in that time it’s helped boost her profile, but now her replacement has been announced.
Countryfile presenter Helen Skelton will begin her new role from the middle of next month.

“@HelenSkelton will present a new-look Sunday morning programme on BBC Radio 5 Live. The new show, from 10am to midday, launches on August 14th. Welcome Helen.”
