What is Casa Amor?
Casa Amor is a long-standing tradition in the ‘Love Island’ franchise, where the couples are put up against their biggest test of the season.
For one week, all couples are split up, with the girls and boys separated into two different villas. Here’s the twist: the two groups are not alone in the villas.
A group of new boy “bombshells” move into the girls’ villa, while a group of new girl “bombshells” move in with the boys. Throughout that week, challenges are played, relationships are tested and new connections are formed.
At the end of Casa Amor, each islander has to decide whether they want to stay with their original couple or recouple with one of the new “bombshells.”
The Season 7 girls were brought to the Casa Amor villa, while the guys stayed in the original villa. Typically, who goes and who stays alternates every year, meaning the Season 8 boys will most likely be the ones sent to the Casa Amor villa this year, while the girls meet their new group of “bombshells” in the original villa.
“While some Islanders find the time apart a blessing to explore a new romance, others may stress that every second away could threaten their original connection,” Peacock wrote.
Will the first Casa Amor episode still air on Peacock?
Yes, those who can’t make it to the theater can still watch the premiere episode of Casa Amor at home on Peacock on Monday, June 22, at 9 p.m. ET.
