Maya Jama has fuelled rumours she will QUIT Love Island after being replaced on its international spin-off show.
The presenter and DJ, 30, hosted the very first series of Love Island Games in 2023 - a brand new sister show to the regular version.
It saw nine former stars from the UK edition fly out to Fiji to compete with international Islanders, though the aim was still to find love.
Bosses have confirmed the format will return for a second series, but without Maya at the helm.
They confirmed Ariana Madix, who became the host of Love Island USA last year, will take her place as presenter.
It comes after Ariana, 40, previously stepped in to anchor the show for Maya on two occasions during the first series.

However, bosses have confirmed the format will return for a second series, but without Maya at the helm in a major shakeup
Announcing the second instalment, bosses said: 'Peacock announce Love Island Games season 2 premieres September 16th, this time with Ariana Madix as host.
'It'll see all-star islanders from the UK, USA & Australia return for another game of love.'
Maya's departure from the spin-off has further fueled rumours she will quit the Love Island franchise altogether.
A source close to her previously told how she was planning to 'leave on a high' and quit the dating show at the end of the current series.
The insider told The Sun: 'Maya adores hosting Love Island and thinks it's a great fit for now. But she's keen to leave on a high and keep her career moving forward on the right tracks. She is incredibly ambitious and would like to keep focusing on primetime presenting opportunities.
'She also has hopes of working in America and doesn't want to be tied down. She has been building up her skills as a presenter and is very much part of the Love Island family.'
The insider added: 'She also has the unique perspective of having appeared herself as a contestant. She's just also had a successful stint on I'm A Celeb so the world is her oyster now.'
ITV previously denied the reports, with a spokesperson telling MailOnline: 'We are very much committed to Maya, who is a brilliant Love Island host, and we have no plans for a presenter change.'

It comes after it was revealed Maya has become a multi-millionaire following the success of her TV career and business ventures.
The TV presenter has published accounts for her business MIJ & Co Entertainment which show assets in the company have increased to £1.83million from £1.37million.
The star appears to have doubled her earnings as she has cash worth £1.3million in the account over the last three months but had £618,774 the previous year.
Maya landed the full time role as Love Island’s number one presenter when Laura Whitmore stood down.
