Love Island star Iain Stirling has praised the “eco” 2022 season of the ITV2 dating series on The One Show.
The voiceover artist and comedian, 34, appeared on the BBC evening programme on Friday (May 20) alongside hosts Alex Jones and Ronan Keating.
Asked about the forthcoming “eco” run of Love Island, which will see contestants where second-hand clothing, Iain said: “We’re going ‘pre-loved’ this year on the clothing.”
He later added: “It absolutely is [a move in the right direction].
“The fashion industry has a big impact on the climate and all those sorts of things so it’s great that we’re stepping away from [fast fashion] and moving to pre-loved.”
Iain appeared on The One Show alongside celebrity guests Rose Leslie and Florence Welch.
During his interview, the comedian also opened up about welcoming a child with his Love Island co-star Laura Whitmore.
Iain and Laura welcomed their first daughter together in March last year.
On how the married couple had adjusted to being parents, Iain described parenting as “the best thing”.
He said: “Obviously, it’s a big adjustment but it’s just the best thing just watching this little person learn to laugh and play.
“So, it’s amazing.”
Giving a shout-out to his presenter wife, Iain added: “I’m so lucky to have Laura by my side to help out and I’ll obviously help out where I can and it’s a collaborative effort.
“We’re a tripod.”
