The new season of “Love Island” starts on August 30th on RTL2 and it has been certain for a few weeks that Sylvie Meis will succeed Jana Ina Zarrella as the presenter. But now it came out: It could have turned out quite differently. Because apparently Amira Pocher was also in conversation!
Amira Pocher: She had an offer for Love Island
The Pochers themselves announced this background information in their podcast “The Pochers here!” Oliver Pocher said: “At this point we can reveal that you were also in discussion for ‘Love Island’!” Amira confirmed her husband’s approach and declared that he had at least one conversation with RTL2 about his job. In the end, it was even she who canceled RTL2.
“It always sucks to follow in someone’s footsteps. They will be dismantled, so I said, I don’t trust myself! “, Amira explained her rejection. In addition, Amira added that she was probably not the right one for this format. You make too much fun of the show. “That just didn’t work out. I’d rather do nothing than do the wrong thing. ”
Oliver and Amira Pocher have no heart for influencers
And in fact it would have seemed strange if Amira Pocher moderated a show with “Love Island” in which (budding) influencers were looking for great love and a career boost at the same time. After all, she and, above all, her husband Oliver Pocher can hardly give a damn about being an influencer.
It is unclear whether Sylvie Meis was only the second choice for the sixth “Love Island” season in the end, or whether the broadcaster spoke to both women at the same time. One thing is certain: Sylvie Meis is already looking forward to the job in the “Love Island” villa.

For Amira Pocher it would have been the first big TV appearance without her husband Oliver, with whom she has been married since 2019 and has two children. Nevertheless, the native Austrian is no longer just the “wife of”, but has made a name for herself as a podcaster and Instagram celebrity with almost a million followers.
