Gabb’s grabbed reality fortune

GABBY Allen has revealed how being a reality star has made her a mint.

The babe made it big after ensuring last year’s Love Island was a ratings hit.

She said: “Before I did Love Island I wasn’t earning anywhere near what I earn now.

“It gives you a massive platform and an opportunity to do well.

“Even now I’m working on some fitness projects. And I’ve just signed a book deal – it will be a fitness book. So if anyone wants to get a body like the people on Love Island, this is the book they should be reading.”

Gabby is still in demand more than a year after leaving the television villa.

But she warned this year’s contestants they need to plan their careers carefully to stay in the spotlight.

Gabby said: “I decided to stick to fitness stuff because that’s what I know.”

This year’s winners Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham could make £1million in months.

LAILA Rouass is making a comeback to primetime. The former Footballers’ Wives actress has bagged a role in glitzy new BBC drama Age Before Beauty. Fans will see her playing a glamorous spa owner.

It is Laila’s first major TV outing since Holby City six years ago.

Age Before Beauty also stars TV favourites including Robson Green and Sue Johnston.

It continues on Tuesday at 9pm on BBC One.
