LOVE Island presenter Iain Stirling celebrated the series finale in style - at his home bar.

Rather than making a special appearance in Mallorca alongside host Maya Jama, the popular ITV2 voiceover artist stayed back in Blighty.

Iain, 36, has been the infamous voice of the series since 2015 and is popular for his cheeky quips and sarcastic jibes.

He also worked on the US series of Love Island - which is coming soon to ITVBe - alongside his duties on the UK programme.

However, instead of celebrating the end of the series in Spain with the cast and the rest of the crew, he opted for a rather more intimate get together.

The TV personality took to his Instagram grid page as he posted a cheeky video from his own bar at home.

He captioned the video: "It’s been a long couple of months working on both the UK and USA show and I’ve loved every minute.

"It’s never lost on me how very fortunate I am to get to work on both."

"Massive thanks to both teams for making the timings work and allowing me to be part of both! Shout out to the crew - the level of skill that goes into making Love Island never ceases to amaze me.

"A 24 hour production with the best in the business. Miss not being out in Spain with you guys. Have a sangria on me!"

He added: "Finally thanks to everyone who’s watched and said lovely things.

"Back on tour in 2025 all over the UK - look forward to seeing you there."

Although fans might be surprised to not see him appear alongside Maya, 29, the star doesn't work from Mallorca.

Instead, he records his voiced jokes from a soundproof booth at the home as he shares with his wife, Laura Whitmore and their young daughter.
