Production

Following the second series of the spin-off Love Island: All Stars, which aired between January and February 2025, it was confirmed that the twelfth series of Love Island would air later in the year.[1][2] Alongside confirmation of the series, ITV announced that a one-off special episode Love Island: A Decade of Love, featuring former contestants reflecting on their time in the villa, would air a week prior to the series launch to commemorate the programme's 10th anniversary.[3][4] Applications for the show opened whilst the eleventh series was airing the previous year.[5][6] The series began on 9 June 2025 and was again being filmed in Mallorca.[7][8]

The first teaser for the series aired in May 2025, and featured a printer with the Love Island logo on, printing out a piece of paper reading "Attn: Love Island is coming soon. Attendance is mandatory. Signed, Maya x CEO of Love" [sic].[9][10] A further full-length trailer aired later that month, which featured host Maya Jama and a team of production members coming up with ideas for the new series in a Love Island-themed boardroom, Jama asks the team for "something bigger and bolder", and is presented with comical answers including "moving the show to the Isle of Wight", turning it into a musical, and rebranding to "Love Island on Ice." Unimpressed by their ideas, Jama stands and teases "more drama, more bombshells, more breakups, more makeups [...] and more twists than ever."[11][12]

Islanders

The original islanders for the twelfth series were announced on 3 June 2025.[13][14] Kyle Ashman, a 23-year-old water operative from Stafford, was initially announced for the series, however he was removed from the cast due to a legal issue that came to light prior to entering the villa.[15] The following day, he was replaced by 25-year-old professional rugby player Conor Phillips from Limerick, who entered the villa in his place.[16] A day before the launch, ITV confirmed 24-year-old Las Vegas Pool Cabana server Toni Laites from Connecticut, United States as the first "bombshell" of the series.[17]
