Though we’ve had Love Island Games and Love Island: All Stars to occupy us ahead of the Season 8 premiere, there’s nothing like that Love Island USA villa chaos. From the cast to what time Love Island USA will be on, Swooon has your full guide to Season 8.

Is Ariana Madix returning for Love Island USA Season 8?

Host Ariana Madix will be back for Season 8! She’s front and center on the Season 8 poster, after signing on as the show’s full-time host for Season 6. Since then, she’s hosted reunion specials and returned to the villa to steer Love Island Games.

Who won Love Island USA Season 7?

The final four couples were Iris Kendall and Pepe Garcia, Nic Vansteenberghe and Olandria Carthen, Huda Mustafa and Chris Seeley, and Amaya Espinal and Bryan Arenales. Iris and Kendall landed in fourth place, followed by Huda and Chris in third place. This left Olandria and Nic vs. Amaya and Bryan. The second couple, who’d already agreed to be together outside the villa, won Love Island USA Season 7. They split the prize money.

Who is still together from Love Island USA Season 7?

Bryan broke up with Amaya shortly after the reunion, which was explored on the Season 7 spinoff Beyond the Villa. Iris and Pepe’s split was addressed, too, as well as Iris’ new relationship with Season 7 cast member TJ Palma. Taylor Williams and Clarke Carraway’s relationship was also featured. Lastly, though they didn’t appear together in the spinoff, Nic and Olandria are still together. So, from Season 7, Taylor and Clarke, Iris and TJ, and Nic and Olandria are the last couples standing.
