How to watch 'Love Island USA' season 6 online from anywhere
Two familiar faces are shaking things up in the villa
A group of glistening guys and glorious girls have landed in Fiji in search of love and a grand prize of a $100,000 — or at least a cheeky night in the Hideaway. "Love Island USA" is back, with a few changes to take note of for fans of the show this year. Keep reading as we bare all with details on how to watch "Love Island USA" online and from anywhere with a VPN.
Season 6 of "Love Island USA" is going out daily (except Weds.) at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT (2 a.m. BST / 11 a.m. AEST)
• U.S. — Peacock
• CAN — Crave / CTV
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk-free
We suspect you know the score by now. 10 impossibly attractive single people are marooned on a paradise island in the hope that they will attract a partner. Viewers get to decide who stays, who leaves and who gets to walk away at the end with that huge jackpot. Much like the Love Island U.K., you can expect an unmissable few weeks of high dating drama, dumpings, re-couplings, steamy nights at Casa Amor and, oh yes, the usual string of hilarious asides from Scottish funny man Iain Stirling.
So far, so familiar. But along with the 10 OGs and string of 'Bombshell' arrivals, there's another new face in the villa this year. Star of "Vanderpump Rules" and last year's "Dancing with the Stars", Ariana Madix has taken over hosting duties from Sarah Hyland. Plus, for the first time, "Love Island USA" gets its own sister show, with "Aftersun" rounding up the week's activities every Sunday.
Casa Amor may be over, but the season 6 drama in the villa isn't likely to end any time soon. Especially with two familiar faces from last year rocking up to the island — Aussies Harrison Luna and last year's runner-up Kassy Castillo are the latest bombshells heading to Fiji, and we suspect some heads may turn.
Kordell may be coupled up with Daia, but he's still clearly pining for former belle Serena. Kendall and Nicole are looking like they may be in it for the long run, with Aaron and Kaylor finally going their separate ways. Elsewhere JaNa and Leah are single at the time of writing and will be looking to snag a partner to save them from leaving the island early — and, with it, the chance to stake a claim for the $100,000 prize pot.
