New to the line-up are content creators Joe Baggs and Ash Holme, bringing even more heat to Sunday nights.
Broadcast live from London, the show promises to deliver juicy exclusives, behind-the-scenes gossip and big laughs.
Expect live interviews direct from the Beach Hut, former Islanders serving up unfiltered takes from behind the bar, as well as the first exclusive interviews with dumped Islanders.
Ash is best known as a content creator, but she also appeared on one of the nation's biggest talent shows in 2017.
Ash had an unprecedented run on British singing extravaganza The X-Factor in 2017.
She originally auditioned with her group NQ, who made it to Boot Camp before being dropped from the show.
While Love Island: The Morning After podcast is also back and will again be hosted by former Islanders Indiyah and Amy.
Dropping every Tuesday to Saturday for 8 weeks, each episode dives headfirst into the juiciest moments from the Villa.
The Sun can exclusively reveal Maya Jama 's full squad for the summer includes a footballer, personal trainer and a series of stunning models.
But their beauty is more than skin deep, as ITV2 has amassed a group with real kudos.
Former fire-breather Sophie Lee has campaigned for real beauty since she was scarred for life when her act went disastrously wrong, whilst Alima Gagigo has a BA degree in international business.
Love Island bosses will officially confirm the OGs today, with the series to kick off next Monday.

Harry and Meghan considered changing family name during royal row
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle considered changing their family name to Spencer amid delays in securing UK passports for Archie and Lilibet. Harry reportedly consulted his uncle, Earl Spencer, about the possibility of using the Spencer surname. The passport applications for Archie and Lilibet, using the surname Sussex and including HRH titles, faced months of delays, leading to concerns about the children's titles. A source indicated Harry sought advice from his uncle out of frustration with the passport delays, while another source claimed Earl Spencer advised against the name change due to potential legal issues. The discussion about adopting the Spencer name was dropped after the passport applications were approved shortly after the Sussexes' lawyers threatened legal action.

Rockfield Studios: Growing up with Freddie Mercury next door
A woman who grew up at a recording studio used by some of the UK's biggest bands says it was "just normal" for Freddie Mercury to be in the next Murray from Blakeney, Gloucestershire, moved to Rockfield Studios in Monmouthshire aged six after her mum, a Cordon Bleu chef, got a job there after being praised by the band Black Murray's memoir, "My Family and Other Rock Stars", details how her mother, Joan, cooked for the likes of Queen and David Bowie."I was an only child so she would be cooking in the kitchen until the early hours and cleaning up and I was left to my own devices, so I did wander into the studios and annoy musicians at an early age," Ms Murray said. Ms Murray previously lived in a house in Herefordshire, where her mum advertised rehearsal space to likes of Black Sabbath and Queen recorded there before moving onto Rockfield, where they would reminisce about Joan's food, leading to her being hired as the in-house "Bohemian Rhapsody", Coldplay's "Yellow", and Oasis' "Wonderwall" are among the songs recorded at Rockfield over the years."Mum and I lived with the bands on the Quadrangle," Ms Murray told BBC Radio Gloucestershire."We lived in the chalet, so you could have Freddie [Mercury] next door." She said there were other children who lived at the studios, so "it was just normal" in the local area, but, later in life, some jaws still drop when she divulges the tastes and palettes of some of Britain's most legendary artists."Mum said Freddie had quite a sophisticated palette, but not too rich," she said."The main she loved doing was Fanny Craddock's crêpes suzette. "She'd go into the dining room and set it all on fire in front of Queen and they'd all clap." While many would have bowed down to some of the stars that spent time at Rockfield, Joan ruled the roost as "queen of the kitchen", Ms Murray said."She was the matron and they were the boys of the school," Ms Murray said."Trying to control Motörhead was very interesting. I think she gave up on that one - particularly when my future stepfather, Fritz, was producing them and invited all these Hell's Angels down to record motorbike exhausts for a certain track." Although Ms Murray's experiences inspired her memoir, which is peppered with her mother's Rockfield recipes, she also believes her mother was the muse for one particular hit song written by Freddie Mercury, with clues in the lyrics."Killer Queen, I think, is written about my mother," she said."There are all the other theories but... 'Talked just like a baroness', 'the pretty cabinet' - she always drank Moët & Chandon. I think it is [about] my mother."She's still the woman she was then, even though she's 82 now."
