Hide AdMaria, who used to work in Argos in Sheffield city centre before she started modelling, is said to be keen to find her Mr Right.
She is close friends with former Love Island contestant Danielle Sellers, who starred in the third series of the hit show.
A source told The Star today: “Maria was always very pretty and flamboyant. Her look has changed a lot over the years and she moved from Sheffield to go to London at one point.
“I am sure she will be a hit on Love Island.”
