Peacock has unveiled the 12 islanders joining the show ahead of its June premiere

Peacock has officially unveiled the cast for Love Island USA Season 8, with 12 new islanders set to enter the Fiji villa when the reality dating series returns on June 2.

This year’s line-up includes contestants from across the United States and the UK, including Los Angeles residents Bryce Dettloff and Melanie Moreno. Dettloff works as a DJ and handyman, while Moreno manages a bikini store in the city.

Among the most high-profile contestants is Beatriz Hatz from San Diego, a Paralympic track and field athlete who won bronze in the Women’s Long Jump T64 event at the Paris 2024 Paralympics. Zach Georgiou, from Birmingham, England, is also joining the villa and is the brother of former contestant Charlie Georgiou from Season 7.

The hit Peacock series, hosted by Ariana Madix and narrated by Iain Stirling, continues its real-time format, with episodes airing shortly after filming and viewers voting through the official app to decide which couples remain in the villa.

Season 8 will air daily during premiere week before shifting to a schedule running every day except Wednesdays. The companion programme Aftersun also returns, now hosted by Summer House star Ciara Miller and content creator Tefi Pessoa.

The latest season follows the social media success of previous contestants, viral villa moments and growing global popularity for the Love Island franchise.
