ITV has announced that Love Island is moving to two series a year in 2020.
Early next year, ITV will film a winter version of Love Island at a brand new villa in South Africa, before filming the usual summer series in Mallorca.
In a statement, Paul Mortimer, head of digital channels and acquisitions at ITV, said: “Off the back of a record-breaking year, we’re delighted to be bringing an extra series of our biggest and sunniest show to the 2020 schedule.”
