‘Agenda: Initial coupling, strategic navigation of red flags, and identification of potential long-term partnerships.’

The first trailer for the new series was released on Monday, and showed host Maya Jama in a meeting with Love Island bosses, in the hope of making the show’s 10th Anniversary series its most explosive yet. 

Maya – who starting hosting the show in 2023 – is seen in a boardroom called Love Island HQ and says: ‘Right, this year Love Island needs something bigger, something bolder.  I want ideas.’  

One person asks: ‘Move it to the Isle of Wight?’

Another asks: ‘What if we turn it into musical?’ leading Maya to sᴀssily question the move with ‘Why?’

Another says in Japanese: ‘Love Island, on ice?’ to which Maya replies: ‘Never!’ 

Unhappy with all the suggestions, Maya pushes the paper off her desk and shouts: ‘No!’

She adds: ‘This year I want more drama, more bombshells, more break-ups, more make-ups. I want more twists. I want more twists than ever.’

It comes after the first Love Island star was revealed as a hunky 6’5 personal trainer. 

Londoner Aaron Buckett is rumoured to have been snapped up by ITV bosses to turn heads in the villa either as part of the ‘opening line-up or as a tempting bombshell’.

The gym enthusiast already boasts thousands of followers on both his TikTok and Instagram pages, where he regularly shares clips of his gruelling workouts.

A villa source told The Sun: ‘It’s a fact of life that girls go crazy for a tall lad and Aaron is a man mountain. He’s got great chat too.

‘Aaron is in the mix for this year’s cast but execs are still finalising whether he’ll be in the opening line-up or as a tempting bombshell.’ 

It comes after Maya gave an update which confirmed the dating show’s return and sent fans wild. 

A short clip, which was shared to Instagram, revealed that Love Island would be back sooner than we thought. 

The video showed a letter being printed, which read: ‘Attention: Love Island is coming soon. Attendance mandatory. Signed, CEO of love, Maya x’ 

The official Love Island account captioned the update: ‘100% our type on paper.’
