    Love Island 2021 contestant Aaron Francis ‘hosted and chatted’ at Princess Beatrice’s wedding to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi last summer.

    The luxury events host, 24, also worked at the 2020 BRITs where he networked with the likes of Billie Eilish and Stormzy.

    As well as ‘hosting’ Princess Beatrice’s July wedding in 2020, Aaron also worked on her sister Princess Eugenie’s big day when she married Jack Brooksbank in October 2018.

    Talking about his exciting role as a luxury events host and the royal weddings he has worked, Aaron said: ‘Yeah, Eugenie and Beatrice’s over the summer. I hosted and chatted. It was nice and intimate. 

    ‘Everyone’s chill. In my job you meet a lot of famous people… unless you’re Beyonce, I’m not really interested.’

    Aaron has also shared several pictures of his luxury events to Instagram, revealing that he worked the 2020 BRITs.  

    It comes after MailOnline revealed the first contestant to be officially unveiled by Love Island for this summer’s comeback series on Friday as Aaron.

    The news was confirmed by ITV2 on Monday with Aaron revealing he has been single for about ‘six or seven months’ due to the dating world being a ‘little bit off’ during the pandemic.   

    Talking about his decision to take part, the luxury events host, 24, said: ‘I’ve been single for about six or seven months and the dating world at the moment is a little bit off. 

    ‘Everyone’s wearing masks. You can’t really see anyone which makes dating a lot harder. I do prefer relationships than dating.’ 

    Teasing his criteria for a future partner, Aaron said: ‘I need someone that is passionate about what they are doing – from scientist to anything – you can tell when someone is speaking about something and they are actually smiling while they are talking. 

    Amazing: Talking about his exciting role as a luxury events host and the royal weddings he has worked, Aaron said: 'Yeah, Eugenie and Beatrice's over the summer. I hosted and chatted. It was nice and intimate.'

    ‘I love that. I don’t like when people are doing a job just to make money and then they kind of just live for the weekend. Especially because I work on the weekends.’  

    As well as Aaron, other confirmed contestants include Nando’s waitress Liberty Poole, civil servant Sharon Gaffka, the show’s first ever disabled Islander, PE teacher Hugo Hammond and glamour model Shannon Singh. 

    Model Aaron, who is also a luxury events host, has no real social media profile – unlike recent Islanders – having just over 4,230followers on his Instagram, which is littered with shirtless pictures.  

    A Love Island source told MailOnline: ‘Aaron has no real claim to fame, he’s just a normal guy. However, his job does mean he sometimes moves in glamorous circles and he gets lots of attention.

    ‘Bosses think he’ll be a real hit in the house with the girls and also get on with the guys.’

    Aaron will have to quarantine when he reaches Majorca, as will all cast and crew, to comply with Covid-19 safety measures. 

    The pandemic resulted in last year’s summer series being postponed and fans are eagerly awaiting the new series following the ITV2 juggernaut’s extended break. 

    It’s rumoured the British series may experience a crossover with its US counterpart, as both are being filmed at the same time, but bosses have yet to confirm the audacious move to ensure plot surprises are kept under-wraps.

    Each confirmed contestant will be given thorough psychological and medical assessments by health experts before, during and after the series as part of the show’s duty of care protocols. 

    And every Islander must fully disclose their medical history to ensure the environment of the villa is suitable.

    The 2021 summer series will be hosted by Laura Whitmore who featured in the show’s big teaser advert last week.

    The hit ITV2 dating show has not aired since February 2020 after both the summer 2020 and winter 2021 editions were cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.   

    Love Island returns on Monday June 28 at 9pm on ITV2 and the ITVHub.
