Tweeting the news about the show’s return, the official account wrote: ‘Here’s your first hot date of the summer,’ the tweet read. ‘#LoveIsland is back Monday 6th June on @itv2 and @itvhub!’

Love Island’s iconic narrator, comedian Iain Stirling, declared Love Island the ‘the OGs of love’ in the trailer.
‘This summer, love isn’t blind, it’s neon, and we can deffo handle the heat,’ he teases.
Presented by Laura Whitmore, the show will air a new episode every night at 9pm, except on Saturdays when you’ll be getting a recap show instead.
