Big Brother star Lotan Carter has reportedly auditioned for this year’s Love Island, two years after he was booted off the Channel 5 show for his behaviour.
Carter, who used to be a stripper with troupe the Dreamboys, was removed from the Elstree house in summer 2017 after throwing a bottled drink across the room before storming out after an explosive argument erupted over him being a “role model to his son”.
After being called to the Diary Room, Carter was chastised for his “unacceptable behaviour” before being told to pack his bags for good.
Now reports claim that Carter could be heading back to reality television on a different channel, looking for his perfect match on ITV2 hit Love Island.
“Lotan’s really up for it and he’s been training so he looks his best on camera,” a source told The Sun Online.
“He’s got some really good stories about celebs, though, and would make great TV.”
The insider added that Carter, who is the nephew of Louis Spence, is “looking to settle down” and wants to use the reality series to find The One.
Back in 2017, Carter was embroiled in an argument during his time in the Big Brother house when a game the housemates were playing quickly became heated.
Fellow housemate Isabelle Warburton made a comment to Carter about how his son would be looking up to him prompting Carter to blast her for “boring the s*** out of him”.
Hauled into the Diary Room, the show said to him: "Last night you threw your drink angrily at Isabelle, Chanelle and Hannah and then threw the empty bottle across the room. Later in the bedroom and then in the Diary Room, you used threatening language about a fellow housemate.
“Lotan, Big Brother considers your behaviour to be completely unacceptable and has no option but to remove you from the house.”
Love Island declined to comment on line-up speculation when contacted by Standard Online. Representatives for Carter have also been approached.
