Say what you like about the 'love' element of Love Island – just appreciate that the sniping, pettiness and acrimony are 100% real. 12 amorous mischief-makers get Love Island USA season 8 underway, including a pair of elite athletes and the progeny of an NBA legend.

You can watch Love Island USA season 8 online from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free.

Beatriz Hatz secured long jump bronze at the Paris 2024 Paralympics, but will she fare as well in the bearpit as she did in the sandpit? Whether he's chasing or running for the hills, former Penn State, Miami and Texas Tech track star Sincere Rhea promises to be a livewire.

And Aniya Harvey, the daughter of former Nets, Nuggets, Mavericks, Magic and Suns player Donnell Harvey is hoping to score a slam dunk. If you recognise the twinkle in the eye of Zach Georgiou, that may be because he's the brother of Charlie, who had a (very brief) stint on season 7.

Ariana Madix gleefully reprises her role as host/instigator-in-chief, while Iain Stirling takes care of the witticisms.

Read on as we explain how to watch Love Island USA season 8 from anywhere.

In the US, Love Island USA season 8 premieres at 9pm ET / 6pm PT on Tuesday, June 2, streaming exclusively on Peacock.

During the first week, episodes will air every day. After that, they'll air each day except Wednesdays.

A new episode of Love Island Aftersun will come out each Saturday.

You can also access Peacock via the Walmart Plus trial for just $1 — Peacock Premium is included as part of the subscription.

Traveling outside the US? Try using a VPN — read our guide below to find out more.

If you're keen to watch Love Island USA season 8 but you're away from home and access to the show is geo-blocked, you can always use a VPN to access it (assuming you're not breaching any broadcaster T&Cs, of course). You may be surprised by how simple it is to do.

In Canada, Love Island USA season 8 premieres at 9pm ET/PT on Tuesday, June 2 on Crave.

A subscription starts at CA$11.99/month, but you'll get a better rate if you commit to a longer term.

There'll be a brand new episode every day until Friday, June 5, after which new releases will drop on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

Outside of Canada? Use a VPN to gain access to all the content you'd normally stream at home.

In the UK, free-to-air ITVX is home to Love Island USA, but season 8 won't start airing until Love Island UK 2026 concludes. We're expecting the final to land on July 27.

For now, a VPN will help you tune in if you're an American or a Canadian traveling across the pond. Nord VPN is our recommended provider, and you can find out why with our in-depth Nord VPN review.

How to watch Love Island USA season 8 in Australia

In Australia, Love Island USA season 8 premieres on Stan on Thursday, June 4.

The entire season will be available to stream for free on 9 Now at a later date, but probably not for a while.

Traveling outside Australia? As detailed above, if you’re overseas you’ll struggle to connect to any of the streaming services you usually use. The solution? Try using a VPN.

Love Island USA S8 will be free-to-air on ITVX, 9 Now and TVNZ Plus at a later date, but at the time of publication you'll need a subscription to either Peacock in the US, Crave in Canada, or Stan in Australia to tune in.

How many episodes of Love Island USA season 8 are there?

Each of the past three seasons of Love Island USA comprised 37 episodes, so in the absence of an official announcement, we're assuming that season 8 will follow suit.

If Love Island USA S8 follows the same pattern as recent seasons of the show, we'd expect the final to air on Sunday, July 12.
