Widnes Vikings can confirm that prop-forward Ant Walker will depart the club to join the cast of the next season of Love Island.
Walker, 32, joined the club in 2023. He has made 28 appearances, scoring four tries.
Our 28-10 Good Friday victory over Swinton Lions was Ant’s final game for the club, with him signing off with a champagne moment winning try.
On his departure from the club, Walker said: “I’d like to thank the club and all the fans for the last two seasons.“
Club Statement: “We look forward to seeing Ant in the next edition of Love Island.
“Ant’s been given a chance to explore something new that he is excited to embark on and wish him all the best for his time in the villa.”
Everyone at the club can’t wait to see Ant on our screens and wish him all the best ahead of this venture!
