Love Island's Jess Shears lands plumb job working with Kate Middleton

Former Love Island star Jess Shears has gone from reality TV to royalty after being asked to help promote the Duchess of Cambridge's Tiny Happy People campaign

Love Island star Jess Shears has gone from reality TV to royalty after landing a plumb job with Kate Middleton.

The former Islander, 27, and her partner Dom Lever have both been asked to help promote the Duchess of Cambridge's Tiny Happy People initiative.

The royal set up the scheme with the BBC as a resource to help new parents give their children the best possible start in life.

Jess, who gave birth to her first child last year, admits she's excitement to be brushing shoulders with royalty.

In an interview with OK! magazine, Jess said she's hoping to eventually meet the Duchess as part of the drive.

She said: "There are so many moments when you question yourself and what you’re doing.

"I think it’s always nice to hear from other mums, and yes, of course it would be lovely to meet her."

The couple got together on the 2017 series of the saucy ITV2 dating show, which was won by Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies.

Despite failing to leave as a couple, Jess and Dom reignited their romance in the outside world and they got engaged in 2017.

They went on to stage a fake wedding on Good Morning Britain before marrying for real in Greece.

In 2019, they confirmed they were expecting their first child together and their son arrived late in the year.

They have kept their little boy out of the spotlight, only sharing his face with fans in January 2020.

The pair have never even shared the little boy's name, with Jess explaining she wanted to keep certain aspects of her life private.
