LOVE Island 2024 has brought plenty of highs and lows, and Wil Anderson has certainly been on a rollercoaster ride.
During his time in the famous villa he enjoyed an explosive relationship with Uma Jammeh but sadly this wasn’t enough to stop him being dumped from the island.
Who is Wil Anderson?
Every year Love Island invites a batch of sexy singletons to live it up in a luxury Majorcan villa.
At 6ft 4inches tall, Wil Anderson certainly stood out when he was cast as one of the 2024 islanders.
Before going on Love Island, Wil was asked why he wanted to go on the show, to which he replied: “I’ve been in two serious relationships from the age of 18.
“But now I feel like it’s time to put myself back out there.
“I want to feel that love again.”
The hunk isn’t the only famous one in his family, as he is the brother of Newcastle United midfielder Elliot Anderson.
What does Love Island bombshell Wil Anderson do for a living?
Away from being a Love Island star, Wil has a very different job.
Hailing from Whitley Bay, the 23-year-old is a quantity surveyor.
Wil also has a strong following on Instagram, which has been boosted after being on Love Island.
Fans can follow him on his popular handle @wilandersonn.
When was Wil on Love Island?
Will entered the Love Island villa on June 13, 2024, as a bombshell alongside Grace Jackson and Tiffany Leighton.
He immediately coupled up with Uma Jammeh, and the pair seemed to be one of the strongest on the show.
But that all came crashing down during the aftermath of Casa Amor
This was after it was revealed he had hooked up with bombshell Lucy Graybill.
During the infamous movie night, Uma broke down in tears after she was shown clips of Wil snogging Lucy.
I’ve met friends for life and left with a potential wife!

Fans then went on to accuse him of being “a villain” and gaslighting Uma when he refused to take responsibility.
However, the couple put their differences aside and moved forward with their relationship, despite new bombshell Reuben Collins making a play for Uma.
What has Wil Anderson said about leaving the Love Island villa?
In emotional scenes that aired on July 9, 2024, Wil was dumped from the Love Island villa after Reuben tried to steal Uma.
As soon as the news was announced Uma broke down in tears and immediately said that she was “leaving too”.
Before they left the famous villa together they sat on the day beds and said “I love you” to each other.
Speaking to ITV after leaving the show Wil said: “I’ve met friends for life and left with a potential wife!”
Opening up about his reaction to Uma deciding to leave with him, he continued: “I feel like what I did and said to her was enough for her to end her journey with me, it makes me feel amazing.
“I couldn’t be happier with the outcome to be honest.
“I’ve been in there for 3 and a half weeks and I’ve left with a girlfriend pretty much.”
