The Love Island: All Stars villa has been evacuated and production for the Season 3 series has been halted due to wildfires in South Africa.
ITV confirmed that the premiere of the series, originally set for Monday, January 12, will need to be postponed for the safety of the Islanders and crew.
“Further to a production evacuation owing to ongoing wildfires in the area, our assessment of the location site has concluded that filming will need to be postponed,” read the statement from the British broadcaster.
The statement continued, “Health and safety is our greatest priority and will always come first, and therefore the transmission of Love Island: All Stars will be delayed until a date to be confirmed.”
Maya Jama is set to return as host of the new season that sees former Islanders return to the villa for another shot at love.
Love Island films close to air date as the show has an interactive component with viewers at home affecting what happens inside the villa. Filming was to commence this weekend. The delay in production will also affect the premiere on Peacock in the US, which was set for Wednesday, January 14.
