Love Island star Lola Deal has sparked curiosity among fans about her previous career as a detective. The 28-year-old from Kent is currently paired with Sean 'Fitzy' Fitzgerald in the villa, but viewers have questioned how she secured time off for the show.
Lola Deal Left Detective Job Before Love Island
Lola was introduced as a former detective, but she had already left the role before joining Love Island. Speaking to the Daily Star, she explained her decision: 'I had the best time, I had the best team. But I think just for me and myself, I was struggling with the work-life balance of it all.'
She clarified that her departure was not solely for the show: 'I applied for Love Island and then with my job, it was sort of getting towards the end and I was going to start looking for other jobs.'
Future Career Plans
While Lola is uncertain about returning to detective work, she remains open to roles in the criminal sector if they offer a less restrictive schedule. Her newfound fame might also lead to opportunities in entertainment, potentially ending her '9 to 5' days.
Lola's journey on Love Island continues, with fans eager to see how her story unfolds both in the villa and beyond.
