| UPDATED

You should know by now, going on Love Island is widely seen as a quick way for the cast to get rich and become household names. After winning, Islanders have by default now got fame and fortune coming their way. So to see what kind of dosh we’re actually taking, it’s time to take a look at who the richest Love Island winner ever is.

On average, the women of Love Island seem to go on and become richer – probably because they are who tend to go on and do more sponsored content and brand deals with clothing companies and get their own clothing ranges, sometimes bagging six figure deals at a time. But, the guys are pretty rich too. Here is every individual Love Island winner so far, ranked by who is the richest.

Sanam Harrinanan – £400k

According to multiple reports, Sanam has an estimated net worth of £400k. As she won the show, she’s pocketed the £50k prize fund alongside Kai, and I guess a net worth is all about assets, and she basically is her own brand now.

Sanam’s said she still wants to keep working with children at the core of her career, but she’s not revealed too much about what’s next for her after Love Island.

Liam Reardon – £500k
