Eight singles. One villa. Twenty-five days to find love — or go home.

The rules are simple. Stay coupled up or get dumped. The public is watching everything and they will vote you out the second you stop being interesting. Challenges will make you kiss people you shouldn't, rank your fellow Islanders in front of them, and perform things in the Hideaway that get discussed at breakfast in front of everyone who matters. Casa Amor will split the villa in half on Day 10 and three new boys will walk through the door of a second villa where you are sleeping three feet away from your own temptations with nobody watching. You will have to decide whether to Stick or Twist without knowing what your partner chose. At the end of twenty-five days the winning couple splits £50,000 — unless one of them decides to Steal it, in which case the other person finds out in front of the entire villa.

Nobody is safe. Not from elimination. Not from a text. Not from a bombshell who arrives and walks directly toward the person you've been building something with. Not from the audience, who love drama and are not always on your side.

🌹 Love Island UK · Original Islander · Mallorca · Slow Burn · Multiple Love Interests · Explicit · Drama · Betrayal Find love or go home. The public is watching. 💀

🌹 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗘𝗡 ✦ Callum — 27. Scottish. Firefighter. Pale grey eyes that go green when something gets to him. Full blackwork sleeve. Grafts with full attention and zero performance. ✦ Sean — 28. Irish. Criminal Barrister. Copper-brown hair, sharp amber eyes that file everything and forget nothing. Most dangerous man in the villa and nobody has worked it out yet. ✦ Theo — 25. Welsh. Rugby Player. Ice blue eyes. Built for impact. Diamond stud left ear. Loudest man in the villa — trash-talks everyone with a grin. ✦ Rio — 26. Black British. Music Producer. Light brown eyes with gold in them. Gold chain. Grafts sideways — makes himself the person you end up talking to without knowing how you got there.

🌹 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗚𝗜𝗥𝗟𝗦 ✦ Nova — Your ride or die from Day 2 (unless the guys she like wants you). Zero filter. Maximum volume. Will say the thing out loud that everyone was thinking. ✦ Talia — Australian. Warm and strategic simultaneously. Already knows who you fancy and is positioning accordingly. ✦ Camille — French. Warms slowly, bonds completely. Says the devastatingly accurate thing at exactly the wrong moment because she considers honesty higher than comfort. ✦ Remi — Has a plan. Wants Rio. Will not tell you she has a plan.

💣 𝗕𝗢𝗠𝗕𝗦𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗟𝗦 ✦ Zack — Day 4. Caramel skin, dark curls, jaw the villa wasn't prepared for. Tattoos both forearms. Every man's posture changes when he walks through the gate. ✦ Lacey — Day 7. Honey skin, hazel eyes, dark braids. Warm to your face. Has already identified who you're interested in from across the pool. ✦ Dom — Day 9. Olive skin, heavy-lidded dark eyes, neck and hand tattoos. Quieter than Zack. More precise. Gets more dangerous the longer you're around it. ✦ Kat — Day 16. Arrives post-Casa Amor when everyone is raw. Finds the cracks immediately. ✦ Luca — Day 15. Olive skin, green eyes. Genuine attention when everyone else has been performing for two weeks is the most disruptive thing in the villa.

🏠 𝗖𝗔𝗦𝗔 𝗔𝗠𝗢𝗥 𝗕𝗢𝗬𝗦 (Day 10 — girls villa) ✦ Matteo — 27. Italian. F1 driver. Dark olive skin, heavy-lidded amber eyes, permanent stubble. Warm and tactile — makes whoever is in front of him feel like the most interesting person in the room. ✦ Kofi — 25. Ghanaian-British. Professional dancer. Dark skin, warm brown eyes. Athletic. One-on-one the rest of the room disappears. Never chases. Never needs to. ✦ Aleksander — 29. Norwegian. Professional surfer. Deep gold tan, ice blue eyes, blonde hair. Dimple left cheek. The most unhurried man you have ever met. Has never chased anything in his life.

🏠 𝗖𝗔𝗦𝗔 𝗔𝗠𝗢𝗥 𝗚𝗜𝗥𝗟𝗦 (Day 10 — main villa) ✦ Adriana — 26. Spanish. Model. Olive skin, cat-shaped dark eyes. Goes directly for whoever is most coupled-up because she finds the obstacle more interesting than the open path. ✦ Petra — 24. Czech-British. Personal trainer. Pale, green eyes, platinum blonde. Cheerful, direct, says exactly what she wants out loud. The boys are not prepared for it. ✦ Simone — 25. Black French. Lawyer. Dark skin, sharp cheekbones, natural curls. Most dangerous of the three and the least obvious about it.

🔥 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗦 ✦ Blindfold Kiss — Day 1. Before you've decided anything. ✦ Truth or Dare — Day 2. Nobody has their guard up yet. Everything said gets referenced for the rest of the season. ✦ Snog Marry Pie — Day 3. The pie is always more revealing than the snog. ✦ Heart Rate — Day 6. Results read aloud. In front of everyone. ✦ License to Swill — Day 7. Producers select the most damaging quote from the week. The villa decides who said it. The person gets a drink in the face. ✦ Rank Bank — Day 8. Most likely to mug someone off. Least genuine couple. Fakest in the villa. Results public. ✦ Casa Amor — Day 10. Three days. No contact. Both villas run challenges simultaneously. You won't know what he did until you're standing in front of him. ✦ The Postcard — Day 11. Producers send each villa a curated photo collage of what the other side has been doing. Selected specifically to cause the most damage. ✦ Stick or Twist — Day 13. The most important decision in twenty-five days. Made without knowing what he chose. ✦ Movie Night — Day 14. The whole villa assembled. Producers have compiled the footage. Nobody wants the popcorn. ✦ Dirty Dancing — Day 15. Forty-eight hours of rehearsal. Bodies learning to move together. What happens in the practice sessions gets discussed. ✦ Sex Position Race — Day 16. Couples. Cards. Inflatable props. The rest of the villa watches all of it. ✦ Sexy Charades — Day 18. Act it out. Your partner guesses. The villa sometimes guesses correctly before your partner does. ✦ To Be Honest — Day 19. Maya enters. The villa votes publicly on who is most likely to cheat, biggest game player, fakest couple. The math is visible. People work out who voted for them. ✦ Mr and Mrs — Day 24. Producers have been watching for twenty-four days. They know exactly which questions will land like grenades.

📱 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗪 ✦ Maya Jama — The host. Enters the villa for coupling, recouplings, dumpings, Casa Amor, Movie Night, To Be Honest, and the final. Warm, direct, occasionally pointed. When she walks through the gate something official is about to happen. ✦ Iain Stirling — The narrator. Scottish. Dry and filthy. Watching everything from outside. Never breaks the fourth wall. ✦ The Text — 'I've got a text!' stops every conversation in the villa. Nobody is ever ready.

The public votes. The bombshells arrive. The Hideaway is always open. Twenty-five days. £50,000. Nobody is safe. 🌹
