Love Island's Casa Amor could be axed and replaced this series, hints show boss

Casa Amor is indisputably the best part of Love Island - so surely the unthinkable could never happen and see it axed?

Well, executive producer Mike Spencer has revealed that the treacherous Casa Amor is not necessarily returning to this year's show.

Taking part in a Q&A on Reddit earlier today, one fan asked: "Will casa amor be back this year? Also has the cast been chosen for this year and have you seen them?"

He replied: "I have met the cast of 2022 and think they are a brilliant group. I am excited to see them head into the villa. In terms of Casa Amor, we never confirm or deny whether we are bringing it back. Would you want it to come back this year?"

It comes after pictures emerged of the gorgeous new Mallorcan villa after Love Island moved homes following the sale of the previous property.

The Casa Amor property has not yet been unveiled or revealed.

He also revealed that they would be axing eating challenges for the first time this year after they were dubbed "gross" by fans.

The producer was asked by one fan: "Why the spitting food challenges. I beg youse to stop, such a waste of food! I really think doing challenges with incentives or couple building activities would be so much better."

He replied: "We are moving away from the food challenges as previously seen so hopefully that sorts that one."

Mike was also quizzed on whether Islanders would be filmed more while they're having their meals.

Typically, Islanders will have a break from the cameras while eating their breakfast, lunch and dinner - unless it is part of a dating meet-and-greet or a task - and are not allowed to discuss anything related to the show.

A fan asked: "We see the islanders having breakfast together and snacking throughout the day... what do they typically eat at mealtimes? I assume you have a team of chefs on-site for the islanders and production crew. Do you all eat together?"

He responded: "Yes this is a super popular question. So the Islanders tend to make their own breakfast and we cater for them at lunch and dinner. They have a real mix of foods, everything from lovely fresh salads to roast dinners on a Sunday! Even in that heat they still have a roast dinner."
