“Love Island USA” has unveiled its cast for its upcoming seventh season, and the islanders are ready for a summer of love and drama.
The 10 new contestants hail from all across the country, from Los Angeles to Miami to Honolulu, with jobs ranging from a poolman, a cowboy and an employee at a family-owned coffee shop, Peacock announced Wednesday alongside a teaser introducing the cast.
Hosted by Ariana Madix and narrated by Iain Stirling, Season 7 of “Love Island USA” premieres Tuesday, June 3, with new episodes dropping every day at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET during premiere week. New episodes will then stream Thursdays through Tuesdays throughout the summer.
Additionally, “Love Island: Aftersun,” which recaps each week’s drama with interviews from cast members, will return for Season 7 every Saturday, beginning June 7. Hosts for this season’s “Aftersun,” which was previously hosted by former Islander Maura Higgins, will be announced soon.

Season 7 has some hefty shoes to fill after last year’s Season 6 entered the cultural zeitgeist and social media chatter in a way the U.S. spinoff series had never done before. Season 6 was the first installment hosted by Madix, who undoubtably brought some “Vanderpump Rules” fans into the reality dating show’s audience, and featured fan-favorites Leah Kateb, JaNa Craig and Serena Page, whom audiences lovingly dubbed the P.P.G., a.k.a., the Powerpuff Girls.
The Season 6 cast was so loved that Peacock greenlit a spinoff, titled “Love Island: Beyond the Villa,” which will follow the islanders around Los Angeles as they navigate new careers, evolving friendships, newfound fame and complex relationships outside of the Love Island villa, per the official logline.
