LOVE Island star Sam Gowland has revealed he hasn’t cooked a meal for three years after building a huge fortune.
The villa star, who last year claimed he is worth millions, found fame on the ITV dating show in 2017.
While he didn’t secure lasting love, it put the 28-year-old on the pathway to career success.
He successfully raked in money through public appearances, time on Geordie Shore, the property market and Forex trading.
Taking to Instagram today, he wrote: “Random fact of the day – I’ve not cooked a meal since leaving my old home in Newcastle in 2021 (Cool or bit weird I can’t work out).”
It followed an advert for his Love Island pal Jonny Mitchell’s trading app and bootcamp.

Waking early in his Bali mansion, Sam revealed he’s been taking trading tips from Jonny who has re-imagined himself as an investment guru.
While Sam has made a great life for himself, he was recently accused by fans of letting fame get to his head following a social media video.
The reality star laid into the UK and called it “miserable, depressing and boring” after receiving stick online for his veneers.
Pointing at his bright white smile while sitting in a cafe in Budapest, he said: “Now I’ll tell you what it is, people only take the p*** out of these veneers when I’m doing videos about the UK telling it like it is.

“It’s the worst place in the world and it’s so depressing, miserable and boring because it makes YOU feel uncomfortable that I’m absolutely correct about the whole set up in the UK.
“You feel trapped there, so the only thing you’ve got to do is mention my veneers because it’s the only thing you think is going to get to you when in hindsight I’m not bothered at all about what you say about my teeth [sic].
“If I was bothered I would do something about them.”
Sam continued: “Life quality abroad is so much better. In England you’re just depressed and freezing cold, you’re stressed and worried about the next bill because all the bills are going through the roof.
“You get no sunshine, even when it’s summer there’s no sunshine.
“I am now in Hungary, I’ve come from a skiing trip to come here to Budapest for Christmas.
“The quality of life here is just so much better. Everything is so much more cheaper; the meals, the drinks, transport. Everything. But it’s better quality.
“In England you get ripped off to the high heavens. You are paying a premium for not a premium service.

“The best thing you can do, and trust me because I’ve been abroad now for seven years, the best thing you can do is move abroad.
“Trust me on that. The UK is absolutely finished.”
