Love Island USA is an adaptation of the UK dating show franchise. It originally aired in the US on CBS, but made a permanent move to Peacock for Season 4. It has become one of the most-streamed reality TV dating shows.
Actress Sarah Hyland hosted the show until Ariana Madix took over for Season 6. Iain Stirling serves as the show’s moderator. Season 7 of the popular dating show just wrapped up, but it isn’t over yet. The cast will reunite for a reunion special. Ariana Madix hosted the reunion for Season 6, but Peacock tapped a big name to join her to host the Season 7 reunion. Keep reading for all the details, including when the special airs.
Love Island Games Returns For Season 2
The success of Love Island USA spawned a Love Island Games spinoff. The first season aired in 2023. It features previous contestants from the franchise, including the USA, UK, Australia, and more. The Islanders return for another chance at finding love or money.
British television personality Maya Jama was the host of the first Love Games season. However, she won’t return for Season 2. Ariana Madix takes over as host.
Love Island Games premieres on Peacock on Tuesday, September 16.

Big Name Hired To Host Love Island USA Reunion Show
The competition and hope of finding love on Love Island USA may be over for Season 7, but the drama is not. The cast reunites later this month to hash out their differences and relive the drama. Deadline reports that Chelley Bissainthe, Ace Greene, Amaya Espinal, Bryan Arenales, Iris Kendall, Pepe García, Huda Mustafa, Chris Seeley, Olandria Carthen, and Nic Vansteenberghe are just a few of the Islanders that fans can expect to see at the reunion.
The reunion episode will also likely address the scandal that prompted one Islander to leave the show.
Ariana Madix hosted the Season 6 reunion solo. But Peacock brought in the big guns for Season 7. Bravo host Andy Cohen joins Ariana to host the Season 7 reunion. He’s hosted many reunions on Bravo, including for the Real Housewives franchise and the Vanderpump Rules reunions, which featured Ariana Madix for many seasons.
Andy Cohen has been the face of Bravo since the early 2000s. Fans have been speculating that he might be stepping down. But the latest news indicates that he’s still in demand. Bravo and Peacock are both part of the NBCUniversal family.

Air Date Revealed
Love Island USA isn’t the first Peacock Original show to tap Andy Cohen for a reunion episode. He previously hosted reunions for The Traitors. Fans thought that was an odd choice because Alan Cumming does such a great job as the regular host of the show.
Fans of Love Island USA won’t have to wait long for the Season 7 reunion. The Islanders gathered while the drama was still fresh. The Season 7 reunion airs on Peacock on Monday, July 25, at 9 PM Eastern.
