SUMMER is in the air, and a new batch of singles is set to jet off to the Love Island villa, and the buzz is already starting about who the contestants will be.
If you’re planning your travels outside the UK, you don’t have to miss a moment of the action. Here’s how you can watch Love Island 2024 from abroad.
Get ready for some sizzling drama, as Love Island 2024 is set to return in just a few weeks.
ITV has officially confirmed the premiere date on Instagram, with host Maya Jama posed by a flaming heart. It looks like this will be the hottest season yet.
The launch show kicks off on Monday, June 3rd, at 9 PM. You can catch all the action on ITV1 and ITV2, or stream it on ITVX.
The details are still under wraps about who will be bringing the heat into the villa this year, but rumours suggest a model who has worked with Rihanna.
As always, we can look forward to plenty of poolside lounging and conversations around the firepit soon.
Speaking of the villa, we just got our first glimpse inside the brand-new Love Island villa in Majorca, and the new fire pit looks ready for some intense dumping scenes.
But it’s not just romance on the line. There’s also a £50,000 prize fund for the winning couple.
For the first time, the show will air simultaneously on ITV2 and ITVX. After each episode airs, you can catch up on ITVX.
But if you’ve ever tried to stream ITVX when you’ve been outside the UK, you’ll know that its content is blocked.
Luckily, there’s a simple way to stream ITV shows like London from overseas: download a VPN such as ExpressVPN or NordVPN.
VPNs are downloadable online tools that can be used to suggest you’re using a UK-based IP address and bypass the content-blocking issue.
We’ve got it all covered with simple instructions in the following section.
