The ‘Love Island’ Season 2 Cast Is Here—& Summer Just Got Hotter

We got a text! The Love Island season 2 cast was announced on Monday, August 17, and we can’t wait for another season of hot islanders. But before we reveal the islanders who will look for love on the second season of Love Island USA, let’s explain how the show works for those who are new to the franchise. (Welcome!)

Love Island premiered in the United Kingdom in 2015. Since then, the franchise has spinoffs in four different countries: Australia, Germany, Sweden and the United States. Love Island USA premiered in August 2018 and was filmed at a villa in Fiji. Like other Love Island seasons, the contestants were cut off from the real world and were under 24/7 video surveillance as they looked for love. Every few days, there’s a recoupling, where any islander who’s not in a couple is dumped from the island. Every few days, new islanders are also introduced, which creates oh-so juicy drama among the contestants. In the end, the public votes for their favorite couple, and that couple wins $100,000. Now that we have the basics out of the way, let’s dive into who the Love Island USA season 2 cast is—and how this season will film, given, well, you know.

When will Love Island USA season 2 premiere and air?

Love Island USA season 2 will premiere on Sunday, August 24, at 8 p.m. ET. The show will air each night at 9 p.m., including a two-hour special on Saturdays, which includes the best moments of the week, never-before-seen footage and exclusive interviews.

Where is Love Island USA season 2 filmed?

Due to the current health crisis, the second season of the American version of Love Island will be filmed at Caesars Entertainment’s boutique hotel, The Cromwell, in Las Vegas. (The first season was filmed at a villa in Fiji).

“As the health and safety of everyone involved in Love Island is the highest priority, ITV will follow specific health and safety protocols for COVID-19,” CBS said in a statement in August. “All Las Vegas staff and crew working on the production and all cast participating will be within quarantined ‘bubbles’ where they will undergo isolation before production begins and be tested prior to beginning work, and the cast will be tested prior to their participation. They will also all be regularly tested throughout the season, as well as screened daily for symptoms.”

Executive producer Ben Thursby-Palmer also told the “Watch With Us” podcast in August that season 2 will include a second villa, which will be Love Island USA’s first Casa Amor. “There are lots of twists and turns this year. About halfway through, it will be revealed that there’s a second villa. There’ll be a bunch of new girls and new guys coming into the mix,” he said. “It’s sort of done to put temptation in the way. You’ll have couples that are actually really happy together, and now, it’s like, will they survive this next episode in their journey? That’s what happens in real life!”

Who is the Love Island USA season 2 host and narrator?

Model Arielle Vandenberg will host the second season of Love Island USA, while comedian Matthew Hoffman will narrate it. Both Vandenberg and Hoffman hosted and narrated the first season in 2019.
