West Lothian Love Island hunk Anton Danyluk among stars set for Ex on the Beach

Crisis-hit Ex On The Beach has signed up a West Lothian influencer who appeared on season five of the hit ITV show, Love Island.

West Lothian hunk Anton Danyluk is among the reality stars who will appear on the long-delayed 12th series of the hit MTV show.

The latest programming is finally underway, and bosses have padded out their cast by signing a host of personalities from other shows.

Ex Islander Anton, and Drag Race UK favourite AWhora are among the new names featured on the show, as reported by the Scottish Sun.

Ella Rae Wise has also signed up, with the beauty one of the culled The Only Way Is Essex stars who didn't survive bosses' mass exodus this summer.

However, filming for the new series still isn't going smoothly - with some of the exes dropping out, in addition to the changing travel rules amid the coronavirus pandemic.

A source told The Sun: "One of Anton's exes has already dropped out of filming because she's got a new boyfriend and doesn't want to be away from him, and another Towie star couldn't make filming because of a schedule clash.

"A Netflix star signed up - but also dropped out before filming. Bosses are having to cope with the ever-changing travel rules too - it's a nightmare."

Earlier this month, it was revealed that Towie's Yazmin Oukhellou pulled out of Ex On The Beach just hours before she was due to confront ex James Lock.

The 27-year-old star got cold feet about living with her former flame for the show, leaving bosses in the lurch.

An insider told The Sun at the time: "Yazmin was all set to fly out to confront Lockie but pulled out at the last minute.

"She told pals that she couldn't face living with him in the villa and had second thoughts about the show."

The insider went on: "Bosses are now desperately trying to draft in someone else to fill her spot."
