Love Island All Stars season 3 brings back the heat with familiar faces stepping into the villa once more for another shot at romance, drama, and that big cash prize. After a brief delay from wildfires near the South Africa filming location, everything’s finally underway. Here’s the full rundown on where to catch it, when episodes drop, who’s in the cast, and other key details buzzing around right now.
Where to Watch Love Island All Stars Season 3
UK viewers get the easiest access—tune in free on ITV2 or stream via the ITVX app and website. No subscription needed beyond a free ITVX account for catch-up.
For fans in the US, Peacock streams it exclusively. New episodes roll out shortly after the UK airing, usually with a couple of days’ delay. Premium plans on Peacock remove ads for smoother viewing, though a free tier might work with some interruptions.
International watchers often rely on a VPN to access ITVX or Peacock, depending on location. Official streams keep things reliable without the pirate site risks.
