Meet the contestants looking for love on Love Island USA
Will they find love? Your guess is as good as ours, after all it is Love Island!
Just when we thought we wouldn't be getting our Love Island fix this year after the 2020 UK series was cancelled due to coronavirus, ITV treated fans to a viewing of Love Island: Australia.
And now they've only gone and done one better with a special serving of Love Island USA season two.
Over the next few weeks, viewers will get to watch all the action from the luxury villa in Las Vegas. And we're only a couple of weeks behind the US where, the series debuted on August 24th, which means all the drama is currently heating up across the pond!
We've seen our first batch of islanders couple up, and some bombshells are already ruffling feathers.
Here's everything you need to know.
