It only feels like yesterday that Millie and Liam won Love Island in August 2021.
But tonight (6 June), the ITV2 series is returning with a new batch of contestants who will enter the Spanish villa in the hopes of finding romance or, at the very least, getting a nice suntan.
Fans of the show – or those deciding to get involved for the first time – are preparing to meet the hopefuls, who will be introduced by presenter Laura Whitmore and narrator Iain Sterling.
One thing’s for certain; the launch episode will take on a different form. In a new clip, it’s revealed that the public will choose which contestants couple up as opposed to the contestants themselves.

Where is the Love Island villa this year?
It’s one of the more unlikely clashes of the year...
It’s been revealed that the Love Island launch episode will begin at exactly the same time the UK learns the result of the no-confidence vote in Boris Johnson.
Whichever way the vote goes, we’re not too sure ITV2 will be overjoyed about the timing.
Really excited to watch Twitter divide into Love Island vs no confidence vote commentary tonight
