LOVE Island star Tom Clare has landed a HUGE six-figure deal to be eBay's Pre-Loved Ambassador.
The ITV2 dating show star – who rose to fame earlier this year – shared the news on Instagram alongside his first branded snaps.
And The Sun can reveal the former footballer had secured a huge six-figure sum for the honour.
It means that Tom, 23, has become the first Islander this year to win a big-money contract – despite being a runner-up on the 2023 winter series which was won by Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan.
In his first photos for the enormous brand he sat perched on a wooden stool and flashed a dazzling smile.
Tom wore white jeans and a grey top, which he teamed with a baby blue bomber jacket.
