Love Island 2022 start date 'released' as 'new cast begin filming in secret'

I've got a text - and it's the message everyone has been waiting for! Love Island is back this summer, and the start date is no more than nine weeks from now, reports the Sun.

Fans of the hit ITV2 show can now get excited about the series returning in 2022, as insiders revealed that cast filming will begin in secret, in two weeks time.

And it has also been disclosed by the newspaper that this year's summer series will be the longest one yet, as contestants will have to clear their schedule for ten whole weeks.

The start date for Love Island 2022 is Monday, June 6, as per insider sources.

The source told The Sun: "Love Island is coming back with a bang and it will begin on the second full week in June.

“The schedules are being put together now and fans can expect a long, hot summer of fun from the villa from June 6.

“Filming for the promotional adverts is beginning in the next couple of weeks and the ads will start in May.

“This series is going to be the longest ever and it’s from a brand new location so it’s all very exciting.”

However, a spokesperson for Love Island has said: "It is too early to confirm scheduling for the 2022 series.”
