Since that post, Mimii’s followers on Instagram have further increased, now surpassing 18,000.
A fellow viewer commented: “Yesss keep these posts coming!!! I was definitely part of the 13k that followed Mimii.”
Another added: “13k in 24hours is crazy and the show hasn’t even start yet!!”
Others who have experienced a follower surge include 26-year-old Samantha Kenny, from Liverpool with her follower count now over 16,000.
She had started off with almost 6,000 before being confirmed for Love Island.
Meanwhile, 24-year-old Harriett Blackmore, from Brighton, had jus over 29,000 followers beforehand.
After being announced, Harriet has added new fans, bringing her past the 40,000 mark.
Series 12 is set to launch on June 3 and will be filmed in Mallorca.
