Love Island USA season eight winner Trinity Tatum has signed with leading Hollywood talent agency WME, just weeks after leaving the villa.
The model and reality TV star won the Peacock dating series alongside fellow Islander Bryce Dettloff, with the couple taking home the Sh12.9m ($100,000) cash prize after winning the public vote.
The signing marks Tatum's first major career move since the show, with WME set to help her expand into fashion, television, digital content, brand partnerships and other entertainment opportunities.
Raised in Newport News, Virginia, Tatum had already built a following on social media before entering the villa.
She now has about six million followers across TikTok and Instagram, a fan base that grew significantly during and after the show.
Besides modelling, Tatum is expected to pursue more media appearances and commercial opportunities.
However, her next television projects may be limited by the reported one-year exclusivity agreement that Love Island USA contestants sign after leaving the show.
Tatum joins a growing list of season eight contestants securing talent representation.
Fellow Islander Jen Terry recently signed with Motive, while Anaya Harvey joined Geresh Agency.
The rush to sign contestants reflects the growing commercial power of reality TV personalities, many of whom leave the show with millions of followers and lucrative endorsement opportunities.
Formerly known as William Morris Endeavor, WME is one of Hollywood's biggest talent agencies.
It represents actors, musicians, athletes, filmmakers, authors, digital creators and television personalities, helping them secure film and TV roles, brand partnerships and endorsement deals.
Its client list includes Adele, Ben Affleck, Christian Bale, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Matt Damon, Hugh Jackman, Emma Stone, Jessica Chastain, Gal Gadot and Olivia Rodrigo, making Tatum's signing a major milestone in her post-Love Island career.
Tatum and Dettloff were among the strongest couples throughout the season, with their relationship winning over viewers and helping them emerge as the season eight champions.
Love Island USA season eight premiered on June 2, with Ariana Madix returning as host for a third consecutive season and Iain Stirling once again serving as narrator.
The Peacock series has continued to launch contestants into entertainment careers, with major agencies moving quickly to sign its newest breakout stars.
