Love Island winner Amber Gill has landed a brand new TV role.

The 22-year-old will be following in the footsteps of her former co-star Amy Hart, as she is set to join Loose Women as a guest panelist.

And she promises that she “won’t hold back” when she makes her debut on the show on Wednesday.

Adding that she had been “a fan of the show for ages”, Amber told The Mirror she was “super-excited to be joining the Loose panel”.

She said:

“Trust me, I’ll be giving my opinions on everything from cosmetic surgery to open relationships and blended families.”

An insider told the publication that bosses are “excited to see how it goes” with Amber’s debut, and that there’s potential for her to have a more regular slot on the show.

They said:

“She is opinionated, outspoken and sassy – all the ingredients to be a perfect Loose Woman. Bosses are excited to see how it goes.”

“Her appearance [with bGreg] was a real hit and viewers loved her, so it’s well worth giving her a shot at asking the questions.

“If she’s a success, a regular slot on the panel in the future could be on the cards.”

The news comes a few days after Amber was reported to have signed up for Dancing On Ice. 

The beautician is said to be following in the footsteps of former Love Island contestants, Wes Nelson and Kem Cetinay, who were both massive hits on the skating competition.

A source told The Sun:

“The Dancing On Ice casting team are delighted with the decision to snap up Amber.

Love Island contestants always do really well on the series as they are still fresh in everyone’s minds.

“Amber is a stunning girl and they know she’ll look fabulous in all the sequinned costumes. She has a gutsy personality, too, so will make excellent viewing.”
