LoveIsland is officially cancelled, ITV confirm

Casting had already begun on the summer 2020 series of Love Island, with ITV‘Rising stars on social media had also been tapped up by producers, who were already picking out their favourites,’ an insider told The Sun.

‘Everything will be deferred to the winter version and everyone who was being lined up to appear in this series will be asked to see if they can appear in that series. ‘It’s a devastating blow to the entire team working on the show, as well as ITV as a whole but the safety of their contestants and anyone working on Love Island is paramount.’

Love Island host Laura Whitmore, who replaced Caroline Flack for the first ever Winter Love Island earlier this year, said: ‘Like with a lot of things because of restrictions with travel, social distancing and unable to plan ahead, Love Island is postponed until 2021. ‘Great news is that there have been more applications then any other series! Next year is going to be BIG. Stay safe.’Speaking at a controller session at the Edinburgh TV festival, Lygo began: ‘With Love Island, you know, it’s the first of these big shows with I’m A Celebrity, it’s November/December, I don’t think we can talk about it now but we’re looking at alternatives.Love Island is available to catch up on ITV Hub.

Aw I’m crying sooooo hard 😐

Boo fucking hoo!

You thinl this is news. Hooray, less crap on TV that does not relate to reality.

Crying my eyes out

I’m glad these racist fans don’t have show to shit on us🤣🤣🤣 LoveIsland

Thank fuck for that. The more reality and z Lister shows get cancelled the better.

Never would suffice

menendez_elisa hope you take this well...

Oh no how will those boys pumped on steroids spend their summer now? And the girls with those lip fillers. How will Instagram cope without the new wave of influencers and the targeted ads for veneers! gutted 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Good Good

rawlimark Your headline is an oxymoron. “Axed” usually means it’s gone forever, but “returning stronger than ever” indicates it will be coming back. Would it be better to say “2020 series cancelled” instead?

Hip hop hooray...miss the bikini's though. And to think the feminists cried on for decades about ladies being sexualised 🤣 - complete contradiction in terms. Doublestandards

Good. Pure Shite!

Damn. I was hoping it was cancelled indefinitely...not just for the one season. Nothing good comes from this show!

Great utter shite anyway

Never mind 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Good, don't just cancel it this year, cancel it Permanently. The whole scenario with Caroline Flack was awful & should never happen again,

Thank fuck for that.

And? Pure garbage.

Wooooohooooooo!!!

Yippee. At last some good news 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Until next yr

Oh noo

Great news 👍

Some good has come out of all this then!

One enormous benefit of Covid 19 will be the end of this kind of toxic Junk TV. The 'prole-feed' of 1984.

Best news I’ve heard for a while 😂

I’ve not watched tv for 3+ years. However, I’m sure they can find something of interest to replace this utter shite.?
