When does Love Island USA start and how can you watch from the UK?

While the UK version of Love Island was cancelled due to coronavirus, the US series is very much going ahead.

Instead of an island paradise, the 11 singletons will be coupling up in a stunning villa on the rooftop of Las Vegas boutique hotel, The Cromwell.

They'll have a romantic view of Vegas' infamous strip, a pool surrounded by palm trees, and a secret jacuzzi for any private trysts.

And crucially, the islanders will not have to social distance from each other. All were required to self-isolate before entering the villa, meaning interaction - and intimacy - will be as normal.

Here's how you can follow the action from the UK:

We'll be watching the action just a couple of weeks behind the USA, where the series kicked off on 24 August.

Who hosts Love Island USA?

The US version of the hit dating show is hosted by actress and model Arielle Vandenberg.

She has previously made one-off appearances in Bones, NCIS and How I Met Your Mother, and she had a large following on Vine before it closed down.

Arielle also starred in the video for Arctic Monkeys single R U Mine?

Love Island USA is narrated by TV personality Matthew Hoffman.
