It’s official—the winter edition of Love Island returns this January! Read on for all the juicy details, as well as how you can watch Winter Love Island 2023 online.

What is Winter Love Island about?

The wintertime edition of the flagship Love Island series, Winter Love Island is a British dating reality TV show where a group of “Islanders” are brought together in a romantic villa in their search for love. The series follows these singletons as they get to know each other and eventually “couple up,” with the winning pair taking home £50,000.

Winter Love Island 2023, a.k.a Love Island UK Season 9, also introduces a new twist: For the first time ever, viewers will get to choose the first "Bombshell" contestant to enter the villa, which could shake things up entirely!
