AJ Odudu for Love Island 2022?

According to a source quoted by The Mirror:

Love Island bosses are loving AJ on Strictly. She has done a few dating shows and would be the perfect fit. At the moment it’s early days but she is the girl of the moment and has lots of offers coming her way. If she is offered the Love Island job she will have to weigh it up seriously as now is her moment and she’s got a lot of opportunities to choose from.
