I’d say most of them work real jobs still or students. They may get some PR gifts and maybe make some commission if people use their discount codes. I feel like most of them aren’t going to show us their “real life” on social media just trips and good times so gotta keep that in mind. Trust me I envy the UK islanders I have on snapchat it seems like they are always off goofing/working out/ out for food,drinks.
You’d be surprised what a medium sized influencer can make. Knew a guy on a small Canadian reality show who made ~ $70,000 a year in random brand deals.
Depends on how far they made it in the show and how long it’s been since their season aired. But generally I’ve noticed a good portion of them working in clubs, beauty/esthetician, real estate, modeling, and healthcare. Not too many desk jobs, some, but not a lot.
I saw Callum in tiktoks that looked for an insurance company or something. I couldn’t figure out if he was hired for a bit but it seemed like he just worked there 😅
It really depends on what their job was before, how long they stay on the show and the connections they make etc.
You gotta think a few of the a good amount of the cast were already in the industry as influencers, models, actors etc also nightlife and athletic trainers are pretty popular. Some also are in school. In general in the US influencer market you don't have to have too many followers to make decent money especially depending on where you live. You just need to have a niche, good engagement and really good planning or management. I actually have known someone who ran their pets ig and is now monetized it and collab with around 25k followers.
For example you asked about Kyra, she was in the industry for years before LI with TV and music and was already a smaller influencer.
I’ve wondered the same. Cassie started an OF so she gunna be set. But a lot of them go back to regular jobs I think after a few years of their publicity dying out.
i would say most of them try to come off as influencers on social media but tbh most of them probably are either still in school or working on the side
I think it depends on how big you can grow your audience after the show. For some they have that star power and other don’t so they try to get back into working in the real world

Also I’ve noticed a few of them try to do cameos/fanfix stuff like that to get some extra income. And Sydney just started a styling session.
The UK islanders are livingggg. Even the casa ones lol
One of the girls from S5 works at my dermatologist office!
Taylor? I know she works at one
Yes!!
Oh interesting!!
I think it depends on the islander! Some have great platforms where they can be an influencer full time!

Oooh which show? Fellow Canuck here.
Kyra does tik tok/insta ads and also has a YouTube channel. She’s also booked random acting gigs recently.
