Love Island UK is back for its 13th season. Sam Connon sorts through the cast of the blockbuster reality hit, as well as when you can watch it in the US.
Love Island UK is back for Season 13, bringing a dozen new faces into the spotlight. There are couplings, games and romance coming to the villa in Mallorca, but breakups, drama and public votes as well.
If you are eagerly anticipating the return of the British reality sensation, here is everything you need to know heading into the Season 13 premiere:
For viewers over in the United Kingdom, Love Island Season 13 will premiere on Monday, June 1 at 9 p.m. However, Episode 1 will not be available to stream in the United States until Thursday, June 4 at 3 a.m. ET.
Love Island UK will air one episode a night, Sunday through Friday, on ITV2 in the United Kingdom. They reach the States on a three-day delay, so the weekly cycle will run Wednesday through Monday. Seasons 11 and 12 were 49 episodes each, plus weekly Unseen Bits behind-the-scenes specials and Aftersun talk show recaps that brought the total to 65 episodes.
Besides Maya Jama returning as host and Iain Stirling coming back as the wise-cracking narrator, we have a whole trove of new faces coming to the villa this summer. Here are all the contestants we know will be appearing in Episode 1, including their ages, occupations and hometowns:
There will be new bombshells entering the fold throughout the season – not to mention the wave of home-wreckers who will join the action during Casa Amor – but their identities remain hidden.
In an interview with The Daily Mail, producers Amanda Stavri and Lewis Evans confirmed that Casa Amor, Movie Night, Snog, Marry and Pie were among the returning favorites coming back for Season 13. However, they also teased a “never-before-seen” coupling format, which could debut as soon as Episode 1.
Beyond the format itself, the dozen Islanders will pair up and see whose relationships last. Others are bound to get voted off – either by their fellow Islanders or the audience watching from home in the UK. There are another 24 to 28 alternatives waiting in the wings that the producers could deploy at any point during the season. In the end, the last three couples standing will go head-to-head-to-head for a £50,000 prize, which is equivalent to about $67,210.
Here is a World Cup-inspired teaser that lays the groundwork for what’s ahead in Season 13:
Love Island UK Season 13 premieres on Monday, June 1, in the United Kingdom. However, it will not be available in the United States until Thursday, June 4. New episodes come out every day at 3 a.m. ET – although one episode a week will be an Unseen Bits compilation special – for eight weeks.
While Love Island UK will air on ITV2 in the United Kingdom, the show will be available to stream in the United States on Hulu. Meanwhile, Love Island USA will be available to stream on Peacock.
Season 13 of Love Island will include around 50 episodes, with the eight-week season likely set to conclude in late July.
