Love Island USA Season 8 is almost halfway over, and you know what that means! That’s right, another chaotic trip to Casa Amor is on the horizon.
For the last two weeks, the Islanders have been hard at work forming connections with one another. While it still feels early, drama has already taken over the villa, specifically after America’s first vote of the season split up Melanie Moreno and Sincere Rhea as well as Kenzie Annis and Corbin Mims. Similarly, more solid connections that narrowly escaped the wrath of America’s desire for messiness, like Aniya Harvey and KC Chandler, are hitting some other bumps in the road.
That road, however, is only going to get bumpier as the Islanders look toward the Casa Amor phase of the show, which will be here before we know it. Keep reading for everything we know about when the Casa Amor episodes of Love Island USA Season 8 will begin.
What is Casa Amor on Love Island USA?
Casa Amor puts each connection in the villa to the ultimate test. About halfway through each season of Love Island USA, the guys and gals are separated into two different villas and introduced to an entirely new crop of sexy singles. For a few days, the Islanders test their established connections against the temptation of the Casa bombshells. When they return to the villa, there’s usually some sort of twist that forces them to choose between their original partner and whoever they make a connection with in Casa Amor.
What episode does Casa Amor start?
An exact date for the start of Casa Amor has not been announced yet, but if it’s anything like previous seasons, it won’t be long before the Islanders are separated into different villas. In both Love Island USA Season 6 and Season 7, Casa Amor began in Episode 19, which dropped on July 1 and June 23, respectively. With that information, we can safely guess that this season’s Casa Amor will likely begin airing on or around Monday, June 22.
DECIDER has reached out to Love Island USA reps for confirmation, but did not hear back by the time of publication. We will update this article as new info becomes available.
