In a recent revelation, it has come to light that Steve-O, the American stunt performer renowned for his role in “Jackass” and former partner of Stacey Solomon, was dismissed from the 2006 celebrity edition of “Love Island” due to smuggling and using cannabis within the villa.
Steve-O’s Brief Stint on Love Island
In July 2006, Steve-O joined the British reality show “Love Island,” which was filmed in Fiji. Shortly after his arrival, he departed the show under circumstances that were not fully disclosed at the time. An official statement from ITV mentioned that Steve-O had become “very emotional” and was “upsetting some of the other celebrities,” leading to a mutual agreement for his departure.

Years later, fellow “Love Island” participant Paul Danan disclosed in a podcast that Steve-O had smuggled narcotics into the villa by ingesting them and later retrieved them. Danan recounted an incident where Steve-O fashioned a makeshift bong from an apple, which they used together.
