NEED TO KNOW
The Love Island USA cast has officially touched down in Fiji, meaning their phones are officially out of their hands.
Season 7 of the beloved Peacock dating show kicks off on June 3, introducing a new group of Islanders looking for love in the villa and taking a shot at the $100,000 cash prize. On May 29, the network revealed the first 10 Islanders — including a “cowboy” from Oklahoma City and a barista from Honolulu — but as fans know, there will be fresh faces introduced throughout the season as new bombshells enter the villa.
Prior to returning as host, Vanderpump Rules alum Ariana Madix shared some advice with Peacock for the new cast, saying that the new men shouldn’t always “listen to your boys,” while the women should “always have each other’s back and never settle for less than what you truly know you deserve.”
While the Islanders pull one another for chats, compete in over-the-top challenges and brace themselves for the recouplings, family members and friends typically take over their social media accounts, documenting their journeys from the outside and keeping fans in the loop.
