Love Island fans SHOCKED at TV salesman Haris Namani’s bizarre dating rule – with Maya Jama calling him out
Love Island got off to a flying start as it returned to ITV viewers screens on Monday evening.
And fans were shocked to find out that islander Haris Namani won’t date a woman who has feet bigger than a size five.
The TV salesman, 21, told Maya Jama his bizarre turn off is: ‘Big feet. Anything over a size five.’

Maya couldn’t resist pointing out this would rule her out: ‘Well I’m out of limits, I’m a size six and a half, it’s not gonna happen. You can’t be that strict down to the foot size! Well I think I’ve found out enough’
Taking to Twitter, viewers could not hide their shock, with one saying: ‘Really sad that Haris won’t want me cos my feet are a size 6’
One person wrote: ‘Cant be above a size 5 in shoes?? are you mad �� #LoveIsland.’
Another added: ‘Maya calling out Haris on feet size… We love to see it’

A third penned: ‘So are we all in agreement that Haris’ tiny foot thing is because he’s got tiny feet and insecure about it?’
Another added: ‘Not giving the guy a hard time but the ‘my girl can’t be above a size 5 [shoes]’ is exactly why girls have insecurities’
A series of technical glitches and screen freezes blighted the 90-minute launch, with Love Island returning to South Africa’s Cape Town after a three years absence.

The sexy singletons entered the lavish villa on Monday evening, with Haris coupling up with Welsh beauty Anna-May, 20.
Before entering the villa, the payroll administrator from Swansea said ‘I’ve been single for quite a while, my mother is bugging me, she’s like, ”You need to find a boyfriend.’
Haris is a TV salesman from Doncaster who also has a passion for boxing, and frequently takes to Instagram to show himself training in the sport.
Though Haris did not specify how long he has been single for, he claimed that he has never been ‘turned down’ by a girl but hasn’t found ‘the spark’ with anyone.
He said: ‘I’m not too sure. I’ve never been turned down by a girl. I know it can happen, but my strike rate is 100%. I’ve just not found the spark.’
After he was announced on the 2023 line-up, influencer Courtney Hodgson, 23, claimed he had dumped her just weeks before.

In a follow-up comment, the furious social media star added: ‘Biggest game player going, leaving me for a TV show and I called it from the second he left me.’
An ITV representative told MailOnline: ‘All islanders entering Love Island are single and looking for love.’
