01:14I feel like I'm feeling that I'm sleeping far away from you
01:18And you're doing all the things that I said you should do
01:23But you only left alone
01:25Like the setting sun
01:26So I'm ready to go

01:49The world's most talked about dating show is back
01:52Real people looking for real connections
01:55And it's all happening in real time
01:57The summer has officially begun
02:00I'm Ariana Maddux
02:01And this is Love Island USA
02:04Let me like you say you do
02:10Let me like you say you do
02:45Welcome to Love Island USA Season 8.
02:48Eight years, can you believe it?
02:50When we started, Taylor hadn't met Travis.
02:52Harry and Meghan were still royals, and I was only 18.
02:56Don't Google that.
02:58Over the next six weeks, America's sexiest singles will land in Fiji looking for love
03:02while competing for a share of $100,000.
03:05I mean, wow, you could get half a tank of gas for that.
03:19We're back, baby.
03:20And the team have clearly been working hard all year getting the villa ready for a summer
03:24of love.
03:25And I've been working hard all year getting drone lessons for these shots.
03:28Woo!
03:30And for Season 8, we have a gorgeous new room.
03:32It's sexy.
03:33It's luxurious.
03:34And look!
03:35The producers have named it after the feedback they give me every single episode.
03:39Well, this 25-year-old can't wait to get started.
03:41I told you, don't Google it.
03:43So let's meet our first two islanders.
03:44When love takes over, when love takes over, when love takes over, when love takes over.
03:52Oh, my gosh!
03:53Oh, my gosh!
03:54Oh, my gosh!
03:54So nice to meet you!
03:55You look so beautiful!
03:56You look so beautiful!
03:56Oh, my God!
03:57This is surreal.
03:58What's your name?
03:58Anaya.
03:59Anaya, I'm Kenzie.
03:59You look gorgeous.
04:00I love this yellow in you.
04:02The color looks great!
04:03You look so beautiful!
04:05Oh, my God!
04:12Oh, my gosh!
04:14Loves me!
04:14Oh, my God!
04:15This is crazy!
04:17Shut the front door!
04:19This is where the magic is!
04:22Insane!
04:22Oh, my God!
04:23This is our home!
04:24Oh, my gosh!
04:25So, champagne!
04:26Let me back up for this.
04:27Wait, my hands are slipping.
04:28Oh, wait!
04:28I got it!
04:29One, two, three!
04:30Ah!
04:31Yeah!
04:33We made it!
04:34Poor son!
04:35Poor son!
04:35This is so awesome!
04:36Oh, my gosh!
04:37This is insane!
04:38You got to say the toast?
04:39Yeah, toast to new beginnings.
04:40Yes, and toast to hopefully falling in love and finding the man of our dreams!
04:43And toast to being on fucking love!
04:45I know!
04:50I'm Anaya.
04:51I'm 23 from Tyrone, Georgia.
04:52And I'm looking for my future husband!
04:57I work as a marketing director for my family's non-profit organization with my mother.
05:00I'm like her damn assistant and it can be hell.
05:03I'm not even joking.
05:04Like, she threatens my pay all the time.
05:06But honestly, it's all love because she is literally my best friend.
05:11I hype up all the girls.
05:12I'm like, damn, bitch!
05:13You look good as fuck!
05:14No man can take you ever!
05:15Bitch, you don't even need a man!
05:16You're the fucking man, the woman, everything!
05:19I have been single for January, February, March, April, May, June, July, and August.
05:23I have been single for six months.
05:25I go on so many dates, so I feel like I'm going through trial and error.
05:27And even when I am, like, happy and committing to someone, it's like they have something going on.
05:30I'm just so ready to settle down and, like, actually, like, start a family.
05:36I love it all. You can be a short king, you can be tall, any race.
05:38You just have to be fashionable, cute, charismatic, and, like, we can have a flowy conversation.
05:42I devote my whole self into people.
05:43I just want someone to give the same amount of energy as I give to them.
05:50I'm genuinely here to meet my person.
05:52But by the end of this, this man is literally going to be on one knee.
05:54He's going to be like, I just am so in love with you, and I can just see us having
05:56a future together.
05:57And I'm going to be like, yes, I do!
06:02Okay, so how old are you? I want to know everything.
06:04I'm 24.
06:05You're 24? I'm 23. When's your birthday?
06:06Oh, okay. December 12th.
06:08Capricorn.
06:09No. Sagittarius.
06:10I'm a Virgo.
06:11Virgo?
06:12September 5th.
06:12Okay, I don't know much about Virgos.
06:14We're the best. Just know when a Virgo enters your life, like, girl, it's going to change.
06:16Oh, I like that.
06:17Yes.
06:18Sagittarius is like the fire sign.
06:19And I didn't know much about it until, like, I did some digging and I found out I'm a Gemini
06:24moon.
06:25You're a Gemini moon?
06:25Yeah.
06:26I love Geminis.
06:26And it makes sense because I'm, like, emotional a lot.
06:29Girl, I'm emotional.
06:30At night?
06:31At night?
06:31Yeah, no.
06:31And it's like, okay, well, it's my moon sign.
06:33So it kind of makes sense.
06:34Wait, no, wait.
06:35No, no, no.
06:35I don't think that's about me.
06:37Wait, but I do get emotional at night, though.
06:40Woo!
06:42I'm so amazing.
06:44I feel all of this excitement in my veins.
06:46Like it's pumping.
06:47Yes.
06:48Ah!
06:48I'm so happy to be here.
06:50Yes.
06:51Oh, I wanna dance with somebody.
06:53I'm Kenzie.
06:54I'm 24.
06:55From Kennesaw, Georgia.
06:56I literally just graduated nursing school the day before getting here at Kennesaw State University.
07:02Hoodie-hoo, owls.
07:02Hoo-hoo-hoo.
07:03I used to be a competitive dancer, so, like, every morning I wake up, literally do my split,
07:11and it feels really good.
07:12It gets rid of so much stress.
07:13If you just express that groin and lay, you will feel amazing.
07:17Trust me.
07:17Do it right now.
07:18I need a man to pay for 10.
07:20I really do feel like I'm this big lover girl.
07:22My parents are still in love, and it's beautiful how their marriage has grown.
07:25It's been 30 years.
07:26I want that kind of love.
07:30I was in love once.
07:31I was very, very, very needy.
07:33I lost myself in that relationship, because girls are givers.
07:36But I need to not do that.
07:39I feel like I'm reversionized, because it's been a year and a half.
07:43So, I just can't wait to get my hands on a man, like, his muscles.
07:46Ooh!
07:46It's getting hot.
07:47I'm getting hot.
07:47Oh!
07:49Don't you wanna dance?
07:50Don't you wanna dance?
07:51Don't you wanna dance?
07:52Don't you wanna dance?
07:53Don't you wanna dance?
07:53With somebody alone?
07:56Where are you from?
07:57Um, Atlanta, Georgia.
07:58Or like Kennesaw, Georgia.
07:59I'm from Georgia!
08:00Shut the fuck up!
08:01No, I'm not even playing!
08:01Wait, where from?
08:02I'm from Tyrone, Georgia.
08:03I say Fayetteville, Peachtree City area.
08:04Oh my god!
08:05I'm not even joking!
08:06I'm from the same state!
08:08It's my fellow Georgian!
08:09You're like Georgia Peaches!
08:10Oh my gosh!
08:11It's insane!
08:13OMG, girls!
08:14You're not gonna believe this, but our third New Islander's also from Georgia!
08:18Well, actually, she's from Philadelphia.
08:19I just wanted to be involved.
08:22Hi, ladies!

08:34Hello!
08:34Hi!
08:35You're gorgeous!
08:36You're so beautiful!

08:39I'm Nia.
08:40Nia.
08:41I'm Kenzie.
08:42Kenzie?
08:42Oh my goodness, I've been so excited.
08:44Where are you from?
08:45I am from Philly.
08:46Philly?
08:47Philly girl.
08:47Philly girl.
08:48Yeah, but I live in LA now.
08:49Oh!
08:50I love my Philly people.
08:51I'm always gonna be like an East Coast girl, but at least one.
08:53Yeah.
08:54Do you want to toast, ladies?
08:55Yes!
08:56It's the best summer ever!
08:58Yes!
08:58It's been the best summer ever!
08:59It's been the best summer ever!
09:00It's gonna be so fun!
09:01It's been so fucking fun!
09:02Yes!
09:05I'm Melanie, I'm 24 years old, and I'm from North Philadelphia.
09:08but I live in LA.
09:09I'm sorry, a Philly girl.
09:11We're so real, we're so blunt, but we're fun.
09:13We're fun as fuck.
09:17My family loves to party.
09:19I promise you, I'm waking up to some type of music.
09:21Bachata, merengue.
09:22What Dominicana doesn't love to have a good time?
09:24Tell me.
09:28My friends are like my sisters,
09:29but I don't use the term girl's girl.
09:30If you hear that shit, red, fuck, and black.
09:32Any real woman that loves women never, ever, ever,
09:34ever has to say, I'm a girl's girl.
09:36It just shows.
09:38I'm an attitude when my lips and my soul's red.
09:40I'm a manager at a bikini store.
09:43What kind of bikini style describes you're dating like?
09:44The ones in the damage bin.
09:45Cause I've been here once or twice.
09:47I always pick the wrong guy,
09:49and cross my fingers that it's the right one.
09:50I just always pick the one that never wants the future.
09:52And it just like, ends up breaking my heart.
09:54I can make it nice and easy, I'm gonna take the lead.
09:57If I got a guy that told me, I want kids,
09:59I want to get married, maybe I'll pop them out.
10:01How many do you want?
10:02I'll make a basketball team for you.
10:03If you don't like basketball, it's a soccer team.
10:05Like, football team, what are the little pucks you want?
10:06Just give me an actual relationship.
10:08You know what I'm saying?
10:14So, have you had, like, long-term relationships?
10:16I've had two.
10:17My second one was like, we were on and off.
10:19So it wasn't like, was it a relationship?
10:20That's kind of the same for me, like,
10:21I'm so delusional, yeah.
10:23Girl, I'm delusional too, I'm not even joking.
10:25I need to see the signs, and then be like,
10:27okay, no, that's not my man.
10:27We need to make a pact.
10:28If any of us seem delusional here,
10:30we need to tell each other.
10:31We don't pull each other to the side.
10:32Like, girl, I fear you hurt a little bit to Lulu.
10:34Pinky promises.
10:35Pinky promises.
10:36I love it.
10:36I love it.
10:37Oh my gosh, so cute.
10:38This is our first one.
10:40Oh my gosh, so cute.
10:41Here comes our final two girls.
10:43Ladies, this is the last time you'll be in the villa
10:44without any boys.
10:45So get those girly chats in,
10:47and enjoy the current state of the bathroom.
10:54Hey, oh my gosh, you're so gorgeous.
11:11Do you want to go to the bar?
11:23Yeah, do you want to go to the bar?
11:24Yeah, call me Bea.
11:26You're Latina?
11:26You're Latina?
11:27You're in Spanish.
11:28You're in Spanish.
11:28You're in Spanish.
11:31Oh my god, it's so exciting to meet y'all.
11:33Dude, this orange eats.
11:35Thank you, Becky.
11:37And hands.
11:39No, baby, you look beautiful.
11:40Look at you, girl, you're so fit.
11:41Thank you, thank you.
11:42You are so fit.
11:42You are so fit, girl.
11:44What do you do?
11:44I need to know.
11:45What do you do in the gym?
11:46So I run track and field.
11:47Oh my gosh.
11:49If you say I'm too much, baby, go find less.
11:52I'm Beatrice.
11:52I'm 25, and I live in San Diego, California.
11:57Who is my type?
11:59Oh, tall, dark, and handsome.
12:00Oh my god, wait.
12:01He has to have a mouth mullet?
12:03Oh, those are fucking sensational.
12:08I was born with a rare birth defect.
12:11If you're going to have a disability, you got to make it fun.
12:13I was at a haunted house, and the guy has this chainsaw.
12:16I'm going to cut you to pieces.
12:17And I was like, joke's on you.
12:18I'm already in pieces.
12:23Growing up, I spent a lot of time watching football and stuff
12:26with my dad.
12:26I was very competitive with my brothers.
12:27Tell me I can't do something.
12:28I'm going to do it better than you.
12:29You can't run.
12:30I can run pretty fast.
12:31Watch this.
12:34I'm a two-time Paralympian and bronze medalist in the long jump.
12:37I didn't let my disability stop me.
12:38I never have.
12:42Dating-wise, my strong personality, I think it works out for me.
12:44There's been plenty of times I see a cute guy, I walk over.
12:46You, me, Monday night.
12:47We're going on a date.
12:48Give me your phone number.
12:49Matt and Lukey, love that shit.
12:50Sex is definitely important.
12:52No sex is better than bad sex.
12:54So if you're waking me up out of my sleep, it better be good.
12:56If you're saying too much, baby, go find less.
13:00Ooh, ooh, it's not too, too, too much.
13:03Her body's just so unreal.
13:04I'm just going to keep staring at you.
13:06Like, you need to smoke cars.
13:07Like, seriously.
13:07No, baddies all around.
13:08But I have a question, guys.
13:09Like, what's y'all's type?
13:10We got to get to the T.
13:11I'm not one of those girls that's like, I like medium, ugly.
13:13No, I don't like nothing ugly around me.
13:15I'm just going to put that straight.
13:16I don't want nothing ugly.
13:17But I do like a tall guy.
13:18I like tattoos.
13:19Like, who doesn't like tattoos?
13:20I need someone who's going to call the shots.
13:22That's my type of, that's my type of guy.
13:25I live my day as if it was the last.
13:27I'm Trinity, I'm 22 years old, and I love love.
13:30So, Love Island, USA, find me my man.
13:33It was a crush, but I couldn't, couldn't get enough.
13:36I did quit my job to come here.
13:37I worked at a hardware store, and people
13:39would come up to me and ask me questions about how to measure stuff.
13:41They'll ask me about plumbing, and I'm like, girl,
13:43I don't know nothing about plumbing.
13:44I guess I would consider myself a personality higher.
13:47I live my day as if it was the last.
13:49Live my day as if it was the last.
13:51It was night all night.
13:52I love sex.
13:53I actually am a very sexual person,
13:56but that's really a treat that not everybody gets.
13:58If I know that I'm comfortable with you,
14:00and I'm like, can be myself, that's when
14:02the real freak comes out.
14:06I just love, like, men.
14:08And my type of guy, somebody who is just lovey, golden retriever,
14:11oh my gosh, that's what I want.
14:18I want to find someone who is just going to be giving me
14:21all the butterflies.
14:22Like, I feel like I'm in a movie.
14:23So let's go.
14:24Let's get it going.
14:29Now you're about to have a great fucking summer.
14:31I know.
14:32Here's to a great, amazing summer.
14:34Yes.
14:34Like, a fucking awesome summer.
14:36Hot summer.
14:36The best summer we've ever had.
14:39It's finally time to greet our host.
14:41She's back.
14:42Of course she is.
14:43It's the one and only Arianna Maddox.
14:46She's got style.
14:47She's got class.
14:49She's got a lot of faith in that fashion tape.
14:51And then in a minute, I'll be rolling through.
14:54So get ready, so get ready.
14:58And then in a minute, I'll be coming through.
15:00So get ready, so get ready.

15:48Like, I'm ready.
15:49This is like a fucking fever dream.
15:50Like, honestly.
15:52Well, I'm so excited for all of you.
15:54This summer, you're going to build real friendships,
15:57form real connections, and hopefully find love.
16:01Yes!
16:03That's what we here for.
16:04Yes, I'm excited.
16:06Well, if I'm going to help you with that,
16:07I need to get to know you even more.
16:09Melanie.
16:09Yes?
16:10What brings you to Love Island?
16:11I feel like everything I've been doing has not worked for me.
16:14Like, I played wife.
16:15I did all the right things.
16:17Have you ever been in love?
16:18I have.
16:19I have.
16:20What was that like?
16:20It was great.
16:21It was beautiful.
16:22Aw.
16:22I think I never mixed love and heartbreak together,
16:24because they're different.
16:25I find love in everything.
16:26Like, I find love in friendships.
16:27I find love in my family.
16:28You are the love.
16:28Literally, I am.
16:29Like, I literally am love.
16:30I love, I'm so affectionate.
16:31I love love.
16:32And I also cannot find love in LA for some reason.
16:34It's because you're in LA.
16:35Literally.
16:36It's because you're in LA.
16:36I think I needed to travel, so I came to Fiji.
16:38Trinity.
16:39Yes?
16:40You clearly were not afraid to shake up your life to come here.
16:43You quit your job.
16:44Yeah, I did.
16:46Why was it so important to you to come here?
16:47Finding my husband, hopefully.
16:48Like, let's see.
16:50I feel like I can meet somebody who's really for me, somebody who's really going to treat
16:53me like the princess that I am.
16:55Are you someone that falls fast, you'd say, or do you think it takes time?
16:58I do fall fast.
16:58I'm not going to lie.
16:59I fall fast, but I'm not to be played with.
17:01Like, I'm not about to, like, sit here and be like, oh my gosh, like, I'm going to move
17:05on.
17:05Like, I look good.
17:05I know I look good.
17:06Yeah.
17:07Well, they better be on their best behavior with you.
17:08I hope so.
17:09I literally hope so.
17:10Kenzie?
17:11Yes?
17:12How long have you been single?
17:13A year and a half or over that.
17:14Yeah.
17:15Are you like a relationship girly or more of like a roster girl?
17:18Definitely not a roster girl.
17:19I can only talk to one guy.
17:21So this is going to be quite the change.
17:22It's going to be a huge change.
17:24What's your plan?
17:24How are you going to handle all this?
17:25I don't know.
17:27I'm going to get wild, I guess.
17:29Yeah.
17:30Like, I'm so excited.
17:32Anaya.
17:32Oh my gosh.
17:33Hey.
17:34What made you want to apply for Love Island?
17:36I was with my friend and we were just like, fuck it, let's do it.
17:38Like, honestly, the fact that I'm here right now, it's like such a blessing.
17:41Like, I feel like it's an answered prayer, genuinely.
17:43I've been praying, like, seriously.
17:46I date a lot.
17:47So I have a very strict program of like what I like and I'm not going to settle for anything
17:50less than what I want.
17:51Are you a roster kind of girl?
17:52I feel like every girl has a roster.
17:54I like it.
17:54I say, yeah.
17:56I feel like every girl has a roster.
17:57Until you commit to one person, I feel like you've got to like have a roster.
18:00But that's like a great way to figure out what it is that you want.
18:02That's what I'm saying.
18:03You get to explore.
18:04Beatrice.
18:05Beatrice.
18:05I want to make sure I say your name right.
18:07That's okay.
18:07It's Beatrice.
18:08Beatrice.
18:09Beatrice.
18:09Or you could call me Bea.
18:10Bea.
18:11Okay.
18:11How are you?
18:13Sensational.
18:13I am here.
18:15So you're a Paralympic bronze medalist.
18:17Yes, indeed.
18:18Yes.
18:19You've spoken a bit about how you were born with a birth defect.
18:23Is that something you're comfortable talking about with all of us?
18:24Yeah, absolutely.
18:25So I was born with a rare birth defect called fibular hemamelia.
18:28And that's when your fibular bone doesn't like fully develop.
18:31I was amputated at 10 months old.
18:33Then they thought I maybe would never walk.
18:35Now I run for a living.
18:37Literally.
18:38That's amazing.
18:40Just crushing life.
18:41I appreciate it.
18:42How do guys deal with the fact that you're a top tier athlete?
18:45Like are there guys that are like insecure about it?
18:47Yeah, but I do think like that's a common trait amongst men is obviously like this competitiveness.
18:52So when you are doing well in your career, regardless of if it's athletics, it could also be something that
18:56they could be a little bit insecure about.
18:58Sounds like a them problem.
18:59Yeah, absolutely.
19:00You know what, yes it is.
19:01All right, girls.
19:02Something tells me it won't be too long until these boys arrive.
19:08So should we top off our drinks and get this started going?
19:11Yes!
19:11Let's see.
19:11I couldn't be more excited right now.
19:25Cheers to the best summer ever at Love Island USA 2026.
19:32The boys are here.
19:34They know how to woo.
19:35They know how to flirt.
19:36But they clearly don't know how to carpool.
19:39Oh dear gentlemen, looks like somebody doesn't care about the planet.
19:42Oh my god.
19:43How are you doing?
19:43Oh well.
19:44Doing good.

20:53Oh, okay.
20:54Who do we think is the fastest?
20:55She's Team USA.
20:56She got me here.
20:56She got me.
20:57I'm retired.
20:58I'm retired.
20:59You just gotta stretch.
20:59Yeah, yeah, yeah.
21:00I need a little warm up.
21:01We might be good.
21:06What's going on, y'all?
21:07My name is Sincere.
21:07I'm 25 years old.
21:08And I'm from Cape May, New Jersey.
21:10You know, I love my name.
21:11I like to be cheesy.
21:11I often end my emails or letters.
21:14I'll be like, sincerely sincere.
21:16May I just say that your face got me so intrigued.
21:20I was raised by my grandmom and my mom.
21:21Two amazing women.
21:22They taught me how to live the right way.
21:24You know, I wait for my friend.
21:24If they're tying their shoe,
21:25I'm gonna be the type of friend that waits for them.
21:27I'll be there for you in your most toughest time.
21:29Track and field's my sport.
21:30I was an All-American, Big Ten champ.
21:31I was a bookworm, too.
21:32Don't let this pretty face fool you.
21:33I'm smart.
21:37I'm not gonna find my wife in a nightclub.
21:39I might find my wife at a run club or at a museum.
21:41I'm just putting it out there.
21:46Growing up, my parents would always be like,
21:47oh, he's a ladies' man.
21:48I mean, shit, they're not wrong.
21:49There's one sincere,
21:49but there's eight billion people out there.
21:50Like, I would be selfish to not spread the love.
21:55I've been single for a while.
21:56You know, I really want to find that chase.
21:58Get a little sweat.
21:59It's like the adrenaline rush.
22:00Honestly, I'm just, look, I'm ready to go.
22:02I'm like an energizer bunny.
22:03I'm ready to hit it.
22:06Sincere, I love your name.
22:08Yeah, yeah.
22:08Do you feel like you live up to your name?
22:09A hundred percent.
22:10A hundred percent.
22:10All right.
22:11Do you keep everything 100?
22:12Oh, a hundred percent.
22:13Come on now, come on.
22:14Bryce?
22:15Yeah, my name's Bryce.
22:16I was born in Hawaii.
22:17Grew up in Vegas.
22:18Surf a lot, you know, a little bit of that.
22:20Moved to New York to model when I was 17.
22:22So yeah, I've been modeling a pretty decent amount of time
22:24and stuff like that.
22:25Nice.
22:25That's really cool.
22:26What's something people wouldn't expect about you?
22:28I feel like because of modeling, I've always had to come off a certain way.
22:31But I feel like I'm a pretty sensitive, emotional person.
22:34That's cute.
22:36He's a simp.
22:37He's a simp.
22:38Oh my god.
22:39Oh no.
22:40No, no, you're not going to do it like that.
22:41No, no, no.
22:42We're not saying it's a bad thing.
22:43He was a stranger.
22:45He walked in looking for danger.
22:48I'm Bryce.
22:48I'm 29.
22:49I live in Los Angeles, California, but I'm from Hawaii.
22:51He can train you down and make you bold enough.
22:55The last 10 years I've been modeling.
22:56First time I got scouted was by the cast director of Calvin Klein.
22:59Then moved to LA to do acting, music stuff.
23:00Now I DJ.
23:01All that typical LA shit.
23:02Ooh, Mr. Electric Blue.
23:06I wanna dance like you.
23:09You're a model.
23:09When your value is based on what you look like,
23:12that sets you up for a world of failure personality-wise.
23:14On first sight, girls always think I'm a fuckboy.
23:16Like right away.
23:17You're actually a pretty sensitive person.
23:18I'm pretty emotional.
23:19Inside, I'm a lover boy.
23:20He can be everything you've ever dreamed.
23:27You know, modeling comes in waves,
23:28so I'll have this huge load of money,
23:29and then the next two months is nothing.
23:30So it's like I've always had to figure out,
23:31like how am I gonna pay rent this month?
23:32I still do like handyman work.
23:34I can fix like anything.
23:35I do electrical work on garbage trucks sometimes.
23:37It's literally so disgusting.
23:38Life's tough, you know?
23:38It's like you gotta figure it out, you know?
23:44A lot of girls I meet have like that checklist they're going to
23:46and they're just like,
23:46he doesn't have this college degree.
23:47He doesn't have that.
23:47That's not like love.
23:48Like love is like you look someone in the eyes
23:50and you have like understanding for them.
23:51You feel them, like who they are and what they've been to
23:52and like bring the better things out of each other.
23:54I feel like that's ultimately like the goal.
23:55I'm just so stoked.
23:59Rice, I feel like you're being a little humble
24:01because your modeling career is pretty successful, no?
24:03I've done a decent amount of stuff.
24:04So like the first job I ever did was Calvin Klein.
24:06Oh!
24:07I see it!
24:07I see it!
24:08I see it!
24:09I see it!
24:09I like your earring.
24:11You're gonna be the one who's in charge of taking all the
24:13pictures of everybody else in here.
24:14Right?
24:14I gotcha.
24:14Because you know the angle.
24:16You're gonna have to make everybody pose too.
24:17It's just the poses.
24:18I gotcha.
24:20Our next boy has arrived
24:22and to stand out from the crowd
24:23he's chosen to open with an impression
24:25of an unprofessional midwife.
24:27What's going on baby?
24:28Oh shit!
24:28Oh!
24:29Here we are.
24:31What's happening guys?
24:32Hi Zach!
24:33You alright?
24:33Come and join us over here.
24:34Hello!
24:35Welcome!
24:36Hi, nice to meet you.
24:38What's your name?
24:38Kenzie.
24:38Kenzie, nice to meet you Zach.
24:39Hi, nice to meet you.
24:40Hi, nice to meet you.
24:41I like the soup.
24:42Likewise man, it's clean.
24:44Zach, nice to meet you.
24:45Nice to meet you too.
24:45I know who you are.
24:47Hi, Melanie.
24:48Zach, grab a glass of champagne.
24:50So Zach, I detect an accent.
24:52Yep.
24:53Where are you from?
24:53England.
24:54England?
24:56Whereabouts?
24:56Birmingham.
24:57That's where the Peaky Blinders is set.
24:58That's right.
24:59That's not the only thing that's familiar about you.
25:01No.
25:02You were on this show before?
25:03My brother's Charlie.
25:04Oh!
25:06I was like, wait, is that Charlie?
25:08Did you think I was him just walking in again?
25:09Are you the younger or older?
25:10Younger, yeah.
25:11About how much?
25:12How many years?
25:12Two years.
25:13Do you think you're going to do better than him in here?
25:15You know, I'm here at the start.
25:16He wasn't, so we'll see.
25:17No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
25:22I'm Zach, I'm 26 years old, and I'm from Birmingham, England.
25:24You're insecure, don't know what for.
25:27My last relationship, I was with her for four years, but then I think the love just faded out.
25:32Honestly, my pick-up game isn't the best.
25:33I can never just go up to a girl and be like, hey, my name's Zach, da-da-da.
25:35But if I'm talking to a girl, I do always bring up One Direction, because it always works.
25:38But it's real.
25:39I do actually live them.
25:40I'm surprised when I start spitting some bull knowledge about 1D.
25:42Baby, you light up my world like nobody else.
25:45I do think my girlfriend would be in America.
25:47A fun, cool American girl.
25:48We get a little cool place.
25:49With a cat.
25:50The cat is very important.
25:51My girlfriend needs to love my cat or else she's out the door.
25:53100%.
25:54You don't know the beautiful love.
25:56My brother Charlie was on Live Island last year, and now I'm here to see if I can do better
25:59than him.
26:00And find love.
26:00So good, come home.
26:01In bed, I do love an alpha woman.
26:03Push me down.
26:04Take control, do you know what I mean?
26:05Partly as well because I'm low-key lazy, so I just can't be asked to do it.
26:07Probably shouldn't say that.
26:08I'm not lazy.
26:09Cut that out.
26:11I have prepared for this.
26:13Dieting, gym, locking in.
26:14I did the full everything shave, you know?
26:16Legs, arms, chest, bum.
26:18You've got to be asleep in the villa.
26:20That's what makes you beautiful.
26:23So how long have you been single?
26:24It'll be three years this year.
26:25Okay.
26:25Have you ever had your heart broken?
26:27I can't say I have.
26:28Oh.
26:29Are you the heartbreaker?
26:30Are you the heartbreaker?
26:31I'm the heartbreaker, no.
26:31It depends what you define as heartbroken.
26:33Yeah, that's exactly what the heartbreaker would say.
26:36Our final two boys have arrived.
26:38And one of them had a corndog right before his entrance and got mustard on the lapel of his suit
26:42jacket.
26:42But don't worry.
26:43I gave him a subtle little something to cover it up.
26:45No one will notice.
26:46What up, man?
26:47What up?
26:48I'm Sean.
26:48Casey, you look good, man.
26:49You too, man.
26:50Got you all blinged out in the pink and everything.
26:51You got the black and white.
26:52Are you ready to go do this?
26:53Yes, sir.
26:53Let's do it.
26:55Wonderful tonight.
26:56We're all feeling right.
26:57Oh, Sean.
26:58Hey, Sean and Casey.
27:01Come join the party.
27:03You guys look great.
27:04I'm loving the thing.

27:19Nice to meet you.
27:20Nice to meet you.
27:20Welcome to the villa.
27:22Sean, tell us a little bit about where you're from, what you do.
27:25I've been, I'm from a little bit of all over.
27:27Wyoming, Virginia, Colorado, California, and recently Pennsylvania.
27:31I'm actually a police officer when I'm not here.
27:34Yes, yes.
27:35Watch what you say, bro.
27:36Yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:38I'm actually a spy here for all y'all, yeah.
27:42Oh my God.
27:44Group Chat's not going to believe this one.
27:45Oh my goodness.
27:46I never imagined that I'd be somewhere like this.
27:51I'm Sean, I'm 29, and I am a police officer.
27:54I love my job.
27:55It's super cool.
27:55Like, you feel like you made a difference.
27:58I get hit on when I'm at work all the time.
28:00Someone ran into me in the street, and she was like,
28:02me and all my family forgot your name, so we call you Officer Sexy Pants.
28:04Officer Sexy Pants was a hit at work.
28:10What is my type?
28:11Curves?
28:12Send them to me.
28:12Fat booty?
28:13I'll take it.
28:13You can't be rude to people.
28:14You can't be an asshole.
28:15The nicer you are and the more thoughtful you are, that's so fucking pretty to me.
28:22I was in a 10-year relationship, and then we had broke up.
28:25From there, I went on, like, a monster streak on dating apps.
28:27At which point, I had a baby.
28:29That was not planned.
28:30The greatest thing that ever happened to me, though.
28:31Slash your corruption, slash your corruption, slash your corruption, slash your corruption, slash your corruption, slash your corruption.
28:36I love being a dad, and obviously, like, things didn't work with his mother.
28:38I would love to find someone willing to go through it with me and just give to my son that
28:42loving home that I want to give.
28:43And then have more babies, because I love that shit.
28:45What's better than love, right?
28:49Sean, you said you recently moved to Pennsylvania.
28:51What brought you to Pennsylvania?
28:52Yeah, so, three years ago, I had gotten somebody pregnant, and two years ago, I had my only child.
28:57So, he's two years older.
28:58So, yeah, when I had him, his mom was from Pennsylvania.
28:59So, she had moved back home, and then I packed my bags and went out there, and, yeah.
29:03He's a good man.
29:04Oh, that's nice.
29:05Yeah, that's good, yeah.
29:06So, Casey.
29:07Yeah.
29:08Tell the girls a little bit about yourself.
29:09I'm a nursing assistant.
29:11Eventually, I want to be a nurse practitioner.
29:12I love helping people.
29:13I do hard work.
29:14It ain't the glitz and glamour.
29:15Like, I'm giving people showers.
29:16I'm changing people, you know.
29:17But, you know, I think my heart's big enough for it.
29:19And I'm really passionate about that.
29:24I'm Casey.
29:25I'm 23.
29:25I'm a nursing assistant, and I live in Fresno, California.
29:30I'm at a nursing home, so I'm with, like, older people.
29:33It's hard work.
29:33It's not easy, but I really have a heart for helping people.
29:36Like, we'll dance a little bit.
29:37I'll play a new little song on for them.
29:38It's like a little...
29:39When they face light up every day, it just, it makes my day.
29:45In the bedroom, I'm definitely a pleaser.
29:46Even with, like, one-night stands, I'd definitely say I have five stars.
29:48I have never left a woman unsatisfied at all.
29:54I like being the chaser.
29:55You know, if you want to play and play games, then you can do some fuckboy shit.
29:58It's all about balance, but I would rather be a lover boy, yeah.
30:05I love, like, my freedom right now.
30:07But if the right woman were to come, then, you know, I would give that up for the right person.
30:15I love you.
30:15On the side, I think we all like to work out, right?
30:17We all like to look good.
30:18Not me.
30:18I don't work out.
30:19Maybe we could change that.
30:21Maybe.
30:22Well, you are the first ten islanders of Love Island USA 2026.
30:32Well, you've started getting to know each other, but now it's time to take things one step further.
30:38Follow me.
30:39Whoo-hoo.
30:40What's that mean?
30:42Ooh!
30:42See you next time.
