Last year’s summer series was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, leaving fans devastated.
Last month, host Laura Whitmore teased the return of the dating show, sharing a clip of her strutting in the infamous villa to Instagram.
The Bray native wrote: “I think we could all do with some Love this summer… ❤️”
Laura will appear on The Late Late Show this Friday, with Ryan Tubridy promising to ask her “what’s happening” with Love Island this summer.
