More young hotties are headed to a tropical paradise to find love and win cash. The Love Island USA season 6 cast includes the younger brother of an NFL star, a winner from Traitors, and a familiar face from the previous season.
If you’re unfamiliar with how Love Island works, here’s the premise. A group of hot singles, called Islanders, get dumped in a tropical oasis. Throughout their time, they’ll couple up to face heart-racing challenges and many twists and turns.
Temptations will rise and drama will ensue as new “bombshells” (i.e. more singles) arrive throughout the season, forcing Islanders to decide if they want to remain with their current partners or recouple with someone new. Islanders will also be at the mercy of viewers at home who will vote to determine who gets another shot at love and who leaves the villa heartbroken and empty-handed.
Season 6 will once again return to Fiji where new host Ariana Madix (of Vanderpump Rules fame) will activate “big sister vibes” on the island. Here’s who’s on the Love Island season 6 cast.
