Love Island has been cancelled this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
ITV announced today that series seven of Love Island will move to 2021.
Kevin Lygo, director of television, at ITV said: "We have tried every which way to make Love Island this summer but logistically it's just not possible to produce it in a way that safeguards the wellbeing of everyone involved and that for us is the priority.
“In normal circumstances we would be preparing very soon to travel out to the location in Mallorca to get the villa ready but clearly that’s now out of the question.
“We are very sorry for fans of the show but making it safely is our prime concern and Love Island will be back stronger than ever in 2021. In the meantime Love Island fans can still enjoy all six series of Love Island on BritBox.”
Previously, Lygo ruled out filming the upcoming series of Love Island in the UK, saying they had considered Cornwall as a location but had decided it "wouldn't be the same show".
He said: "With Love Island, you know, it's the first of these big shows with I'm A Celebrity, it's November/December, I don't think we can talk about it now but we're looking at alternatives.
"We don't have to make a decision yet... we're proceeding on the basis it'll happen in a normal way."
