Love Island UK’s spin-off show Love Island: Aftersun has returned alongside the main summer 2024 series. But what is the show about, and where can you watch it?

Hit ITV reality show Love Island UK returned to our screens for its 11th series, with a new cast entering the Mallorca villa in an attempt to find love, and win the £50,000 prize money.

As with previous seasons, this series will be bringing weeks of romance, drama, and entertainment, with a new episode airing almost every night, for eight weeks starting June 3.

And for those keen for extra Love Island content, Love Island: Aftersun has returned again this year. Here’s everything to know about what it is, and how to watch it.

What is Love Island: Aftersun?

Love Island: Aftersun is a weekly spinoff show, hosted from a live studio with an audience, in which a panel discusses the events of the previous week.

The show includes extra behind-the-scenes clips, as well as interviews with cast members who have been evicted from the villa.

Aftersun is hosted by Maya Jama, and she’s joined by a string of guests, including Rizzle Kicks member Jordan Stephens, and former islanders Indiyah Polack, Amy Hart, and Chris Taylor. 

When is Love Island: Aftersun 2024?

Love Island: Aftersun airs once a week on Sundays, right after the main show airs on ITV2. The main episodes usually begin at 9pm.
