Love Island summer 2020 series confirmed and this is how you apply

Love Island may have just finished, with Paige Turley and Finn Tapp crowned the winners of the first winter series, but plans are already in place for the next summer show.

The ITV2 dating show will be heading back to Mallorca in the summer and contestants are being urged to apply already.

During the final on Sunday night Laura Whitmore said that applications had opened for the summer season.

In recent years the series has started in early June and lasted for eight weeks, with this upcoming series expected to follow suit.

According to the website producers are "looking for vibrant singles from across the UK who want to head to the sun, in search of love!"

The chosen cast will spend time in a luxury villa, getting to know one another, but to remain in paradise they must win the hearts of the public and their fellow Islanders who ultimately decide their fate on Love Island.

Applications close on April 30 - but this is expected to be extended to allow for bombshells etc to be cast.

Applicants have to be 18 or over to apply and be available for eight weeks over the summer.

There were fears the summer season could be cancelled in the wake of the tragic death of former host Caroline Flack.

But the show is continuing with Love Island bosses dedicating the winter series final to Caroline and including an emotional montage video of her best bits during her tenure as host.
