Love Island's Nathan Massey pitches incredible spin-off to replace cancelled show

Love Island 's Nathan Massey has called for a brand new show to replace the dating series after ITV announced it won't be airing this summer.

The reality TV star pitched his genius idea for a spin-off to replace the cancelled dating show over on Instagram, and even asked fans for their opinions.

Nathan, who is married to Cara De La Hoyde after they met on series two, said he was "devastated" to hear the show has been put on hold until 2021 due to the coronavirus.

The couple won the dating show in 2016 and have enjoyed a successful lifestyle since, including bringing up their two-year-old son Freddie and recently announcing they are expecting their second baby.

He wrote: "Devastating news about loveisland being moved to 2021 [sad emoji].

"Who thinks ITV should film a recap show of all the couples that have had kids and got married from previous years? Just a thought, it is what the shows about after all?"

Nathan's suggestion would include himself and wife Cara, who are expecting a daughter very soon.

It would also potentially involve the likes of Alex and Olivia Bowen, who married in 2018 after falling in love on the show, and happy couple Jess Shears and Dom Lever, who are also married and have a child.

A representative for ITV has been contacted by Mirror Online for further comment.

In a desperate attempt to get the TV channel to notice his pleas, the star added: "Who would watch a loveisland OGs ? Tag in  @loveisland   @itv2  in the comments below if you would!!"

Dom Lever was on-board with the idea, as he commented on the post: "Let's do it bro."

However a handful of people weren't impressed by his crafty suggestion.

Fellow islander Anton Danyluk truthfully admitted: "Would only last about 2 secs because most have split up [laughing emoji]."

While Sky's Soccer AM presenter Jimmy Bullard shared: "Hahahaha selfish b*****d. Love it straight out with it."

A third fan added: "No thanks, if anything the ones without kids and married are the most interesting these days without disrespect x."

"No thanks no one wants to see kids crying instead," another commented.
