How to watch ‘Love Island USA’ Season 6 reunion:…
After another season of love and heartbreak, the season six cast of “Love Island USA” will come together to hash out lingering drama for the reunion episode.
“Love Island USA,” which is a spin-off of a reality show of the same name from the U.K., brings singles together in a Fijian villa for a chance at finding their next partners. Contestants, dubbed “islanders,” couple up, get dumped and face various challenges over the course of six weeks. During the finale, the public chooses a winning couple to win $100,000.
This show’s USA version debuted in 2019 on CBS. After its first three seasons, the show moved to Peacock (NBCUniversal is the parent company of Peacock and NBC News.)
Many fans online have already speculated that the reunion will be full of drama. Videos of the islanders addressing their relationships and experiences with bullying circulated on social media after the taping of the reunion last week.
Here’s what to know about the reunion.

The “Love Island USA” reunion, which was taped in New York City last week, will be available to stream on Monday at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT on Peacock.
For those who need a refresher or want to join in the conversation, all episodes of “Love Island USA” season six are available to stream on Peacock.
Who will be in attendance?

“Vanderpump Rules” star Ariana Madix will return as a host for the reunion.
What has the fan response been to this season?
This season has been regarded by fans as one of the best seasons to date. The show became the No. 1 reality series in the U.S. across streaming, according to a press release from NBCUniversal in July.
Peacock reported that streaming reach for season 6 is double that of previous seasons.
But the show’s popularity has also led to increased levels of scrutiny on the contestants.
Daniela Ortiz Rivera, who was in a controversial love triangle this season, posted a video on TikTok and Instagram raising awareness to bullying and suicide prevention after seeing the response to the show.
“All the hate that people are getting breaks my heart so much because at the end of the day, these people are not characters, they’re real people with real feelings,” she said in her video.
Ahead of the reunion, a statement shared on the “Love Island USA” X and Instagram accounts encouraged fans to “end the season with the same love and respect we started with!”
“the reunion is full of drama, but remember — these are real people, so let’s keep it kind and positive,” the statement read.
