Double the fun with double the “Love Island”! Just a day after its UK counterpart, “Love Island USA” is back for Season 8. This season kicks off with 11 singles entering the villa, promising even more hot new bombshells along the way.

Fans will be excited to know that Ariana Madix of “Vanderpump Rules” is returning for her third season as the show’s host, joined by the iconic announcer Iain Stirling. Additionally, “Summer House” standout Ciara Miller will co-host “Love Island Aftersun,” a weekly show where she and co-host Tefi Pessoa chat with eliminated Islanders and recap the week.

For those eager to dive into the new season of “Love Island USA,” mark your calendars for the premiere on June 2 at 9 p.m. ET, with new episodes dropping on Peacock. Episodes will air six nights a week (Thursday through Tuesday) at the same time, so you won’t miss a minute of the action.

To catch all the drama and romance, you’ll need a subscription to Peacock, which offers two plans with different pricing options. While there’s no free trial directly from Peacock, you can take advantage of a seven-day free trial through Prime Video if you subscribe there before payments start. Plus, for fans curious about the filming location, “Love Island USA” will be taking place in the beautiful Mamanuca Islands in Fiji.

Unfortunately, the season had to start with one less Islander as Vasana Montgomery was dismissed following a controversy. But fear not, as the remaining 11 singles are ready to heat things up in the villa! From a DJ to a police officer, this diverse cast promises plenty of drama and excitement.
