Thanks to a cast of chaos demons, season six of Love Island USA became Peacock’s most watched series last summer, igniting a newfound fan base for the U.K. hit’s U.S. version. And now, our faves from the 2024 cast are returning to the small screen in Love Island: Beyond the Villa, a new reality show set to premiere sometime this summer.
According to a press release, the show, set in Los Angeles, will follow some familiar faces from the season-six cast “as they navigate new careers, evolving friendships, newfound fame, and complex relationships outside of the Love Island villa.” The series will star PPG — Serena Page, JaNa Craig, and Leah Kateb — and their boyfriends, Kenny Rodriguez and Miguel Harichi. The cast list also includes Kaylor Martin, Connor Newsum, Aaron Evans, Olivia Walker, and Kendall Washington.
Notably not named is Kordell Beckham (Odell Beckham Jr.’s little brother), who won the season with Page. They’re still together, so we’ll likely (at least hopefully) be seeing him in the show. And for my Rob Rausch girlies, don’t worry — Peacock says other former Islanders will be making appearances throughout the season, so I’m hoping that means we’ll at least see a few scenes of him catching snakes.
It looks like the spinoff will also reunite Martin and Evans, who had a contentious breakup following Evans’s behavior in Casa Amor. Honestly, I can’t wait for the drama — but if I have to hear one more “FAWK, AARON!” I might have to turn off my TV.
