In the years since the reality show genre first took the world by storm, there have been a handful of franchises that have become wildly successful. One of those reality show franchises that has become very popular is Love Island.

Since the Love Island franchise has such a simple and compelling core concept, many international versions of the show have been launched in the last decade. For fans of any of the different Love Island iterations, it makes perfect sense to watch the version that started it all.

For those that don’t know, Love Island UK is the original version of the show since it was what inspired all the other iterations that came later. Given that it is the show that started it all, it is exciting that fans will be able to stream the next season of Love Island UK on Hayu soon.

Hayu’s press release revealed why the upcoming 12th season of Love Island UK is a landmark moment for the franchise. Love Island UK’s 12th season will be released at a major moment in the franchise’s history.

“Series 12 marks a decade since the show first hit screens in 2015. As Love Island celebrates its 10th anniversary, twelve new singletons will join the OG dating series to look for ‘the one’ in Mallorca.”

Hayu’s Love Island UK Season 12 press release also hinted at how compelling the season is likely to be.

“Host Maya Jama returns as the official CEO of Love, presiding over all of the in-villa action as the class of 2025 get set for a summer full of twists and turns. From bombshell arrivals to surprise dumpings, Islanders in sun-drenched Mallorca must truly expect the unexpected.”
