The seventh season of the revived Love Island premiered on ITV2 on June 28, 2021. It ran for 58 days with the finale airing on August 23, 2021.

The winners were 24-year old Millie Court and 21-year old Liam Reardon, making them the first late entrants couple to win the series.

Production

On July 24, 2019 it was confirmed that two series of Love Island would be airing in 2020 – one in January and another in the traditional summer slot.[1] However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the summer season was postponed til 2021.[2][3] It was later confirmed that the show would not be airing a winter version of the series in 2021 due to uncertainties regarding the pandemic and international travel.

On March 4, 2021, ITV confirmed that the series would return in June after an 18-month hiatus.[4] The first 10-second trailer for the series aired on May 29, 2021 featuring presenter Laura Whitmore breaking a heart-shaped fire alarm with a hammer, followed by the tagline "This is not a drill".[5][6]

Kaz and Toby, and Liberty and Jake remained together, while Sharon chose Aaron F, Faye chose Liam, and Chloe chose Hugo, leaving Brad and Chuggs single. New islander Rachel then entered the villa and was told she would couple up with one of them the following day.
  • On Day 6, Rachel had to couple up with either Brad or Chuggs, the two single islanders. She chose Brad, thus dumping Chuggs from the island.

If one decided to re-couple and the other did not, then they would be single but still remain on the island.
