Who else is in the villa?
The drama surrounding “Love Island USA“Season 6 is picking up speed – and it’s only the first week.”
During the June 11 premiere, viewers were introduced to new host Ariana Madix, a renovated mansion and the 10 original cast members hoping to find love this summer.
For the latest season, the series “Peacock” has decided to deviate from tradition. Instead, all the islanders meet in evening wear for the first time, deviating from the typical bikini-clad performance during the day.
After the women strutted into the Fijian villa and chatted with Madix, the men arrived at the same time and shared a few details about themselves. Then, in another unexpected moment, Madix revealed that before mating, the islanders would play an icebreaker game that would involve lots of kissing.
By the end of the game, sparks seemed to fly between some of the contestants and everyone joined forces. But the islanders were surprised again when they learned at the end of the episode that a new “bombshell” – as the show calls the newcomer – was on the way.
Since then, two more sex bombs have moved into the villa, which has led to numerous love triangles within just a few episodes.
All summer long, new contestants will move into the villa hoping to form a lasting connection. But a never-ending stream of new islanders means many contestants will be evicted from the island over the next six weeks.
New episodes will be released Thursdays through Tuesdays at 6pm PT/9pm ET. “Love Island UK” star Maura Higgins will also host a “Love Island Aftersun” series on Saturdays, the show recently announced on X.
We’ll be keeping tabs on all the Islanders from season 6 so you don’t miss a thing. Read on to learn more about the original cast and the bombshells. And keep checking back here as the weeks go by to see whose journey on Love Island USA has come to an end.
