ITV officially revealed the highly anticipated line-up of 12 new bombshells on Friday, June 26, 2026, ahead of the return of Casa Amor.
The popular mid-season twist will officially commence on Sunday, June 28, splitting the original Season 13 contestants across two separate villas.
The fresh batch of singletons—comprising six women and six men—will spend the week attempting to break up established couples to secure a permanent spot in the main Majorcan residence.
The incoming group of women includes a mix of retail professionals, digital content creators, and corporate workers.
Irish influencer Charleen, a 27-year-old content creator from Dublin, has already generated significant interest online after openly expressing a desire to get to know original islander Sean, despite his solid status in the villa.
The female line-up also features Mara, a 25yo nursery manager from Luton. Martha, a 25-year-old personal shopper from London. Olivia, a 23-year-old marketing coordinator from Doncaster. Nevaeh, a 22-year-old student nurse from Gloucester. Julia, a 26-year-old insurance broker from London
However the six new men arriving to Love Island villaa test the loyalties of the original women bring a variety of athletic and creative backgrounds to the show.
The group includes 23-year-old Tommy, an event owner and semi-professional footballer from Essex, alongside Aaron, a 26-year-old basketball player from East London.
After all the remaining male bombshells include: Gabriel, a 24-year-old model from London. Jordon, a 28-year-old video editor from Surrey. Will, a 23-year-old model from Barnsley. Carlos, a 22-year-old tarmac reinstatement worker from the New Forest
The arrival of Casa Amor in the Love Island villa comes at a volatile time for several established pairings who have spent the last four weeks together.
While Lola and Sean currently stand as the strongest duo in the villa, Charleen’s public interest in Sean promises to complicate their relationship dynamic.
Meanwhile, fan-favourite Lorenzo remains open to meeting new people despite his current pairing with Yasmin.
The twist also arrives at a critical juncture for Kavan and Jasmine, who spent the days leading up to the announcement locked in consistent arguments regarding Jasmine's flirtatious behavior with her villa ex, Lorenzo.
Viewers will see the initial villa split and the first interactions with the new cast when the episode airs this Sunday at 9 p.m. BST.
