Following weeks of speculation, ITV announced the summer 2020 series of Love Island was cancelled amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic last week and basically broke our hearts, tbh.
But according to reports, there could still be hope for a second series this year as it’s claimed there are plans to film a special autumn edition in the Canary Islands.
Blimey, series seven is more on and off than some of the Islander’s relationships.
A source told The Sun on Sunday, “The location is up in the air, as Majorca would maybe be a bit chilly by September/October, but the Canary Islands could be possible.
“Casting was well under way for the summer season and producers don't want to lose some of the gems they had hand-picked.”

He explained, “We have tried every which way to make Love Island this summer but logistically it's just not possible to produce it in a way that safeguards the wellbeing of everyone involved and that for us is the priority.
“In normal circumstances we would be preparing very soon to travel out to the location in Mallorca to get the villa ready but clearly that’s now out of the question.
“We are very sorry for fans of the show but making it safely is our prime concern and Love Island will be back stronger than ever in 2021. In the meantime Love Island fans can still enjoy all six series of Love Island on BritBox.”
