Love Island Aus Has A Release Date Plus A Whole Slew Of Sexy Singles So Clear Yr Fkn Calendars

The reality TV gods have blessed us with a release date for Love Island Australia Season Four, and it’s almost as spooky as some of the flirting on that show. Plus, we’ve copped our first look at the show’s cast.

That’s right m’dears, the new season of Love Island Australia will hit your screens on October 31. I will of course be wearing a themed costume to celebrate: maybe a giant anthropomorphic pool floatie?

I’ve been having serious Love Island withdrawals since Season Eight of the UK version wrapped up in August. I want, nay need, my fix of hot young singles gallivanting around a Spanish villa spitting out zingers like: “Do you fancy me?” and “He’s 100 per cent my type on paper”.

There are a few saucy bits of information we can divulge about Season Four, so pop on your bathers and dive right in.

Love Island Australia 2022: What we know so far

When will Love Island Australia 2022 be dropping?

Nine has confirmed the show will be hitting your laptop screens via 9Now on Monday October 31. Cancel your Halloween plans.

The episodes will land at 6pm every day from Monday to Thursday as a little pre-dinner treat.

Where is the show filmed?

This season of Love Island Australia was filmed in Mallorca, Spain. Far out, I’m fanging for a little taste of Euro summer.

Host Sophie Monk was pretty stoked about the filming location.

I love being back in Mallorca, it just feels like Love Island for me,” she told 9Now

“It’s going to be an amazing series that no one will be able to keep their eyes off.”

Who is in the cast of Love Island Australia 2022?

Nine has revealed the cast of smexy singles entering the Villa. I spy at least one mullet, which is how you know this is the Australian version of the show.

However, there was no sign of Married At First Sight 2022 alumni and certified puppy dog Al Perkins, who was rumoured to be on the show.

Maybe he’ll be one of Casa Amor’s handsome homewreckers?

The cast includes medical secretary Claudia, customer service rep Holly, bank worker Jessica, student and dancer Layla, fashion student Phoebe and media coordinator Stella.

You’ll also see mental health support worker Andre, spray-painter and soccer player Austen — who says his fashion idol is Harry Styles, JSYK — personal trainer and pool boy Callum, real estate agent Conor, electrician Jordan, personal trainer Mitchell and security-guard-slash-rapper Tak.

Phew. Good luck memorising those!

While I’m sure the cast are lovely, it’s disappointing that — like loads of other Australian reality shows — we aren’t seeing more on-screen diversity so far this season. There is simply always room to do better.

How is the winners’ announcement being filmed?

In further cast news, a source told Yahoo! Lifestyle that producers filmed not one, not two, but THREE alternative endings that showed all the final couples “winning”.

“Nobody has any idea who will win the cash prize as producers had all the finalists film a version where they win,” the source told the publication.

“The contestants won’t find out if they’ve won or not until they actually sit down to watch the finale with the rest of Australia, and see if their winning scene is played.”

I hate it TBH. Give me Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti losing their collective shit after finding out they’d won the latest season of Love Island UK.

Is there a Love Island Australia 2022 trailer?

The trailer for Love Island Australia‘s fourth season is batshit crazy and I love it.

Basically, it’s a minute of Sophie Monk dancing with a positively smexy man as a voiceover gives us crumbs of details about the upcoming season.

“The hottest show on TV is back,” a voiceover said. I told you they were dropping mere morsels of tea.

Monk then jumped in speaking Spanish, which gave me goosebumps: “Your desires will surely explode.”

I’m expecting nothing less than exploding desires. If they don’t combust, I’ll be writing a sternly-worded letter to the Love Island Australia producers.

The voiceover continued by letting us know “twelve smoking hot Aussies” will be starring in “the spiciest Love Island yet” in “sexy Spain”.

This is all happening while Monk is bending her legs at extraordinarily high angles, which I genuinely believe are defying the laws of gravity. My Pilates classes have been found shaking.

The whole trailer was very “fanny flutters”, if I may use that term.

Who’s hosting Love Island Australia?

As we already know, national treasure Sophie Monk will be hosting the 2022 season of Love Island Australia. 

She’s been hosting the show since it first aired in 2018 so TBH she’s more than qualified to do it.

I’m intrigued to see how Monk’s hosting chops will work on Love Island Australia 2022 which, let’s face it, is a show often mired by drama, bitchiness and misogyny — core reality TV tenets that are nowhere to be seen on Beauty And The Geek, which she’s also hosted.

Irish TV presenter Eoghan McDermott will be back as the show’s narrator.

Until Love Island Australia 2022 hits our screens in October, you can relive the magic of Season Three on 9Now.
