As Love Island USA season 7 continues its daily run, Saturdays follow a different schedule. This day is reserved for Love Island Aftersun, a weekly talk show that brings eliminated Islanders, former cast members, and exclusive previews together in one episode.
The show provides updates and reactions to the week’s major developments in the villa. Viewers hear directly from those who have exited the competition and get a look at scenes that have not yet aired in the main series.
When Love Island USA Aftersun airs, and what it includes
Love Island Aftersun is scheduled to air every Saturday while season 7 of Love Island USA is ongoing. The program does not replace any of the main series’ villa episodes.

Instead, it functions as a weekly addition that reflects on what happened during the week.
The talk show features interviews with Islanders who have been recently eliminated, providing insight into their time in the villa and their thoughts on current contestants.
Former cast members also appear to offer commentary on the season’s progress and events.
Alongside the interviews and discussions, each episode includes exclusive preview clips that may reveal upcoming twists before the Islanders themselves are aware of them.
Aftersun is positioned as a companion show, designed to enhance viewer understanding and provide a wider view of the series outside the daily competition format.
While Love Island USA airs nightly, except on Wednesdays, Aftersun fills the Saturday slot with a different focus and structure.
Who is hosting Love Island USA Aftersun season 7?
The new season of Love Island Aftersun is hosted by Sophie Monk. She takes over the role from Maura Higgins, who led the show during season 6. Monk is a television presenter and singer from Australia.
Her responsibilities on the show include interviewing dumped Islanders, introducing video segments, and facilitating guest discussions on key villa moments.
