Love Island star Joanna Chimonides splashes out £75k on brand new Porsche after second appearance on show
REALITY star Joanna Chimonides has unveiled the latest reliable, trustworthy love in her life — an impressive brand new Porsche which would make the biggest bank balance stall.
The 27-year-old former Recruitment Consultant from London told followers on social media: “It’s the start of Libra season. Meet Patricia.”
She continued: “Thank you @sph1_ you were quite literally the best!!!”
Looking casual in an oversized dark tan leather jacket, loose jeans, a white vest top and trainers, the TV personality shared photos of the new dream machine, one of which included a pretty red bow sat on top of the perfectly-covered car.
The five-seater black car, which boasts a fresh cream interior, caught the eyes of followers who commented: “You deserve it JoJo!! You have worked hard and you have an amazing work ethic. So proud of you.”
A second added: “Unreal well deserved.”
A third fan agreed: “Well done.”
Joanna joked on her Instagram Stories: “Unfortunately it’s not a new puppy! Not quite sure Biscoff [her dog] will approve of another pup taking my attention,” alongside some laughing emojis.
Joanna starred in the dating show in 2019 after catching the eye of Scouser Michael Griffiths, 32, in Casa Amor, ahead of him dumping Amber Gill around the fire pit.
She most recently appeared on Love Island All Stars in January 2024 where she enjoyed a brief romance with Chris Taylor, but was left in tears when the group turned on them for being the ‘least compatible couple’.
Before her stint on the ITV2 show, Joanna dated England and Chelsea footballer Ben Chilwell in 2018 while she was at university and he was playing for Leicester City.
Earlier this year, fans were convinced that Joanna and long-time friend Jack Fowler had reunited since the show after spotting clues that the pair had been on secret dates. The pair allegedly dated for a few months but broke up in spring last year.
The ambassador for the Down’s Syndrome Association and the influencer have been friends for years prior to their stints on the show.
Love Island - Big-money fashion deals REVEALED
LOVE Island's Grace Jackson has bagged a six-figure fashion deal with EGO - but who else has triumphed from the 2024 cohort?
The Sun exclusively revealed how the Manchester model, 25, has signed a whopping contract with fashion and shoe brand EGO after being inundated with offers following her stint in the villa.
She the first bombshell from her series, which was won by Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan, to land a brand deal off the back of the show.
Yet it came after make-up artist Samantha Kenny, 27 – an OG in Love Island’s 2024 cast line-up – scooped a big fashion deal with Glamify.
Meanwhile, mental health nurse Mimii, 24 – who triumphed in the show final – is also “set for million pound deals” as brands clamour to work with her.
A source was first to tell us: “Mimii has been taking back to back meetings with five agencies who are all bidding to sign her up.
“She’s being promised everything from TV shows to beauty deals to fashion lines – all worth up to a million.
“Anyone would expect her to rush into signing big money deals but she’s taking her time choosing who she works with.”
Love Island alumni Molly Smith, 30 – who had a second stab during this year’s All Stars series – also scooped a Boohoo deal following her stint on the spin-off.
