Coupling up and hoping to make it to the final where they could win a £50,000 cash prize, read our guide on everything you need to know, including how to watch Love Island UK Season 11 this summer for free from anywhere.
Ready to couple up with your TV for the foreseeable? We're back with a fresh batch of attractive, tanned, taut twenty-somethings looking to find love (and a partnership deal). Thrown together in the iconic Love Island villa in Majorca, there will be pulling for chats, cracking on, recoupling ceremonies, and maybe even a stint in Casa Amor.
And who are our fresh batch of OG islanders for Season 11? The line-up includes Welsh rugby player and surveyor Ciaran Davies, and Olivia Attwood's pal, Robbie Vint, who was best man to her husband Bradley Dack at their wedding. Always endeavouring to tick that diversity box, digital creator Patsy Field is heading into the villa, born with Erb's Palsy, which left her with one arm shorter than the other. And the first bombshell? Love Island UK introduces its first celebrity contestant with TV personality and The Only Way is Essex star Joey Essex entering the villa on Day 1.

How to watch Love Island UK from anywhere
If you're a UK citizen on vacation or working overseas, you can watch Love Island UK Season 11 and stream every episode just like you would back home.
While ITVX is only available to Brits and blocks access from IP addresses outside of the UK, there's a handy piece of software called a VPN which can change your IP address, allowing you to watch UK TV online from anywhere by making it look like you're accessing streaming services from any country in the world.
For example, UK citizens in the States can subscribe to a VPN, join a UK based server and tune into all the programmes on ITVX from anywhere in the world, just like you would back home.
Step-by-step of using a VPN to unblock:
1. Choose your ideal VPN and install – our go-to recommendation for unblocking is NordVPN, costing from $3.99 a month with its 2-year plan.
2. Connect to a server – for BBC iPlayer, for example, you'll want to connect to a server based in the UK.
3. Go to the stream you wish to access - for Love Island UK Season 11, head to ITVX.

Who is hosting Love Island UK Season 11?
After taking up the reins from Laura Whitmore in 2023, Maya Jama will continue her reign as Love Island UK host for Season 11.

And worry not, the much-loved narration of Scottish comedian, Iain Stirling, has also returned for Season 11.

Where is Love Island UK Season 11 being filmed?
Following a stint in South Africa for All Stars in January, Love Island UK will once again take up residence in Majorca, Spain for its latest instalment of very muggy summer romance.
The villa is near Sant Llorenc des Cardassar. This is the villa that was built for Season 9 of the reality dating show and is the fourth villa to be constructed for the show.
Not wish for things to grow stale, though, it has been revealed that the villa has had a new makeover, with a lick of paint and a splash of color to really brighten up the place, including a very blue kitchen with the iconic 'eat, sleep, crack on, repeat' mantra across the breakfast bar and a green with envy bathroom.
🚨 | First look at the 2024 #LoveIsland villa which has had just a touch of colour added to it this summer 🏝️ pic.twitter.com/v3tMBAqIWJMay 28, 2024
It's also worth noting the Hideaway has had a spruce. Think red velvet and plenty of gold, reflective surfaces. That's not the only change, though. It's been reported that, for the first time ever, the Hideaway will be open 24/7 – just not to couples. The twist will allow islanders who aren't in a couple to enter the hideaway for some alone time. It'll be interesting to see how it'll be used. Pulling for secret chats? Having a whinge? It's fair to say some 'naughty vibes' will be going on in the Season 11 Hideaway.
Love Island UK Season 11 Episode Recap
Episode 1:
With ten seasons under its belt, Love Island UK Season 11 is promising plenty of new twists to keep villa life interesting. Day 1 saw 12 brand spanking new islanders entering the freshly spruced up villa in Majorca. Having a bit of time to get to know one another, Maya Jama swayed those hips into the villa to commence the coupling up. But first, islanders had to rank each other from "Most to Least" boyfriend/girlfriend material.
In a new twist, the boy dubbed the "Most" would couple up with the girl also ranked in the same position, and so on down the ranking, with the "Least" boy and girl forming a couple. Some were happier in their initial couples than others. Before anyone could be married off, though, Maya Jama returned to introduce the villa's first bombshell of the season. Another Love Island UK first, reality TV star Joey Essex – known for his role in The Only Way is Essex - entered the villa.
Episode 2:
With the arrival of the first celebrity ever in the villa, Maya Jama revealed Joey Essex would have 24-hours to get to know the girls before making a decision on which girl he would like to steal the following night. Whichever boy was left single would be immediately dumped from the island. Commence plenty of cracking on, including a game of dares around the fire pit.
With Joey appearing to have eyes for Samantha, Harriet, and Nicole, it was anyone's guess who the reality star would go for. Ultimately, though, he chose to couple up with Samantha, meaning it's bye bye to Sam and his beautiful mullet (that Samantha hated).
Episode 3:
There were plenty of islander games going on. After Ciaran and Nicole had a conversation in the Hideaway Terrace, Harriet asked Samantha if she could pull Joey for a chat in the Hideaway to make Ciaran jealous. Samantha called her out as petty. Things are already getting dramatic in the villa.
Then the evening brings a "challenge" for the islanders. The girls are asked to blindfold the boys and then head to the terrace. Enter bombshell Uma, who struts her stuff into the villa and plants a kiss on each of the boys, whispering in Joey's ear she'll see him later before removing Ayo's blindfold and taking him for a date in the Hideaway.
Episode 4:
Mimii is less frazzled following the challenge after herself and Ayo had shared a romantic kiss the night before. Uma also took Joey for a date, but seemed to have eyes for Ayo, with Ayo reciprocating this interest. And he's not the only guy stuck on two girls.
Drama continues with Ciaran in his love triangle between Harriet and Nicole. While he and Nicole are chatting, he admits he wishes he could kiss her in that moment, but the pair agree it would be disrespectful to Harriet. Later that night Ciaran and Harriet kiss and cuddle while bed, with this eventually getting back to Nicole and leaving her upset and confused. For some reason, this also leaves things to being a bit frosty between the girls as jealousy festers.
Episode 5:
Nicole lays into Ciaran about his mix singles and also confronts Harriet about not telling her about the kiss when they'd previously had a conversation about what was going on. Ultimately, voices are raised in the villa when Joey pulls Ciaran while talking to Harriet and directly asks him, "Who do you prefer?" Shocked, Ciaran says Nicole with Harriet complaining – even though her and Joey put him in a sticky position where an answer was demanded – he spoke to her rudely. Inevitably, Ciaran sleeps on the day bed.
The episode also saw the first recoupling ceremony of the season in which the boys picked the girls. First, though, as the new girl, Uma picked the boy she wanted to couple up with, and she chose Ayo. Ultimately, the recoupling ceremony ended with Mimii left single. However, it wasn't time to pack her bags. Enter bombshell Omar.
Episode 6:
The first of Season 11's weekly installment of Love Island UK's "Unseen Bits" including exclusive clips from the past week's villa antics. This week it's all about big toes and feet in general.
Episode 7:
Mimii and Omar's first date went well and, incidentally, left Ayo some kinda way. Looks like Love Island UK Season 11 is set to be the year of the love triangles – or maybe a square if Omar has anything to do with it... Though he's also eyeing up Uma... So really it's just very, very complicated and I'm exhausted already.
Jess also has a bee in her bonnet with Ronnie after his speech during the recoupling ceremony didn't say much about her that was nice, but did allude to his eyes being open to another potential connection – with Harriet. Yikes. Nothing stirs the drama more like a game of dares that saw islanders locking lips both within and outside of their couples.
Episode 8:
These islanders are offering up plenty of drama, and it's only early days!? Following a kiss during dares, Ronnie pulled Harriet for a chat and took her to the Hideaway. There the pair shared multiple kisses, only moments after Ronnie had apologised to Jess for not showing her equal graft. Tensions were high, with Jess ultimately saying to Ronnie if he kissed Harriet again without prewarning, she was done.
Meanwhile, the triangle between Ayo, Mimii, and Uma continued, with Mimii ultimately choosing herself. Single islanders Omar and Mimii were asked to either couple up together or steal an islander.
Episode 9:
Left on a cliffhanger, Mimii and Omar agreed they needed to explore connections elsewhere (and ultimately their decision avoided any islanders being at risk of being dumped from the islander). Mimii stole Ayo back from Umar, while Omar chose to couple up with Uma, having been getting to know both Umar and Patsy. While both Uma and Mimii sat down with Ayo to ensure they were all on the same page, any drama seemed to be averted. However, in bed that night Mimii and Ayo then shared a kiss, which got back to Uma the next day, obviously.
Love triangle central, both Harriet and Jess decided to have a debrief on mischievous Ronnie, who seems to be playing both girls at once. Honestly, can we just create "Girl Island" and leave these man-children behind? At the end of the episode, the public were asked to vote via the Love Island app for their favorite couple, with the couple with the least votes at risk of being dumped from the island.
Episode 10:
Jess put a time frame on Ronnie to choose between her and Harriet, while Ayo's kiss on the terrace with Mimii got back to Uma. Ayo therefore decided he probably shouldn't be kissing either of the girls while he's getting to know both of them. What a charmer.
Following the previous nights public vote, the favorite couples were revealed leaving Uma, Harriet, Patsy, Munveer, Omar, and Sean vulnerable. The girls were asked to decide on which boy to dump from the island while the boys picked the girl. Ultimately, the girls chose to dump Munveer, while the boys chose Patsy. Munveer and Patsy were in a couple together, meaning no remaining islanders in the villa were left single.
Episode 11
Down with the love triangles, Day 11 saw the second recoupling ceremony of the season with the girls this time getting to choose which boy they wanted to couple up with. A force to be reckoned with, this year our girls are taking back control. While Uma had already said she was stepping back to allow the connection between Ayo and Mimii to blossom, Jess took herself out of the running by choosing to couple up with a sweet-on-her Sean (who owns a sweet company, heh). Harriet was able to swoop in, then, and take Ronnie for herself. But for how long?
Meanwhile, pillow talk saw Ciaran suggest he might already be closed off with Nicole. Yeah, right... And Samantha and Joey went on their first date together.
Episode 12
Three new bombshells entered the villa including a blast from one islander's past. Wil, Tiffany, and Grace (who was seeing Joey outside of the villa about a year ago) entered the villa on Day 12. And a game of beer ping pong saw some heads scrambled and others islanders with their noses knocked out of joint. A three-way kiss between Joey and the two new girl bombshells ultimately saw Samantha sleeping on the day bed, claiming she wanted to step back and let Joey rekindle his relationship with Grace.
The game also saw Ronnie and Tiffany share a kiss. Later in the kitchen, when asked if he enjoyed it, he said yes, right in front of Harriet. Things also don't look good for Ciaran and Nicole after they partook in the game. While Nicole gave the new boy a snog, Ciaran kept things more respectful with a peck for Jess. However, he later confided in the boys if he wasn't holding back, he would have planted one on Grace...
Episode 13
The second installment of Season 11's "Unseen Bits" from the week's villa antics.
Episode 14:
In a series first, the three new bombshells receive a text allowing them to invite an islander of their choosing for a "Saucy Sleepover". Packing their bags for a night away, Wil chooses Uma, Tiffany steals Ronnie away from a ruffled Harriet, and Grace goes for her old flame Joey.
While Joey denied whether or not he wanted to rekindle anything with Grace, the sleepover saw the pair making out in the pool (and then everywhere else in the Nightway Villa). Ronnie also wanted to upgrade his 7 second kiss in the beer pong game with Tiffany to 10 seconds, while Uma is grinning like a cheshire cat for finally being a boy's first choice.
