It must be summer, because the new season of Love Island USA is about to premiere. Season 8 of the beloved series drops soon on Peacock, with Ariana Madix returning as the host. Fans are looking forward to romance, friendship, and drama in the villa. Prepare to cancel your summer plans because Love Island is coming in hot!
When is the Love Island USA Season 8 premiere available to stream?
Love Island USA Season 8 premieres on Peacock on June 2 at 9 p.m. ET.
12 contestants will be chilling in the villa this season. Some buzz-worthy cast members include model Zach Georgiou, whose brother Charlie Georgiou competed last season. Beatriz Hatz, a Paralympic bronze medalist, and Aniya Harvey, whose father is NBA player Donnell Harvey, will also be in the villa.
Besides looking for a love connection, cast members are also competing for $100,000. There is a lot on the line for these newbies as they adjust to life in the villa, and each other.
In addition, one cast member, Vasana Montgomery, was cut after being announced. Reportedly, she used a racial slur in videos that surfaced. The series sent home two cast members last season for the same shocking reason.
