Love Island's Jack Fowler has told this summer's new islanders to enjoy their buff bodies because they will struggle to maintain intense fitness regimes once the series ends. 

The 2018 contestant admits he was one of many former stars to let their body standards slip post-show courtesy of work commitments. 

And Jack, 25, says he was determined to be in peak condition to cope with the pressures of being 'topless on national TV all summer'. 

Speaking to MailOnline to mark JD Sports becoming the Love Island's official activewear brand ahead of the seventh series, Jack said: 'I was so busy after the show that it was actually pretty difficult to find time to train. 

'We were all constantly on the move going to different events and interviews etc, so I did struggle to get into the gym.' 

On the thought of baring his body every day on ITV2, he added: 'Obviously I wanted to look the best I could if I was going to be topless on national TV all summer but my main focus was on wanting to be healthy. 

'But I definitely didn't diet at all, I enjoy my food too much.' 

Jack, who like many of his co-stars racked up fortunes by participating in nightclub PAs and endorsement deals, is reuniting with former Islanders in a new campaign for JD Sports.

The sportswear brand has announced a new partnership with the ITV2 show which will see the multi-channel retailer take over the gym in the soon-to-be revealed Love Island villa and provide activewear for this year's contestants.

And Jack, along with Joanna Chimonides, Molly Smith, Michael Griffiths, are giving a glimpse of the clothes the new batch of Islanders will be wearing in a new teaser trailer.

JD Sports will own the exclusive Love Island TikTok hashtag challenge, provide gamified interactive content will run on a dedicated Snapchat portal, as well as the JD app, plus be the official partner for the Love Island podcast. 

Providing new Islanders with fresh clothes upon their arrival in the villa would have certainly been welcomed by Jack.

Indeed, the footballer admits he barely had any time to pack ahead of his jaunt on the series.

He added: 'I was working right up until I left for the show so I literally just emptied my wardrobe into a couple of suitcases.'
