Temptation island is set to rival Love Island (Picture: E!)

Imagine if Love Island took place somewhere like Hawaii instead of Majorca, and you’ve pretty much just summed up what’s set to be your next TV obsession – Temptation Island.

E! UK and Ireland have just announced that they’ve got the rights to the show, which will air on the channel from 4 August – just in time to fill that Love Island shaped hole in all of our lives, after that finishes at the end of July.

While Love Island focuses on pairing up singletons, Temptation Island follows four couples who are already dating as they test the strength of their relationships.



The couples, who are all at the stage of their relationships where they have to decide whether to commit to each other for the rest of their lives or go their separate ways, move to an exotic island alongside a group of singletons.


The couples are whisked to Hawaii where they are given a taste of the single life among 24 singletons in order to test their commitment to one another.

The first season of the show will be available from 4 August and is sure to be full of drama as couples are pushed to the limits of their relationships.

Sky’s Zai Bennett said: ‘Temptation Island is addictive and unmissable, and we can’t wait to launch it on Sky this summer. If you’re a fan of reality TV and entertainment, then this is your next must-watch show.”

The show, which premiered in the USA earlier this year, has already been a huge hit in the States – and is sure to do well over here too.

Temptation Island is a reboot of the show of the same name which aired between 2001-2003 and just like Shipwrecked in the UK, bosses decided to give it a reboot for 2019.

Anything that’s going to fill the hole in our lives once Love Island ends is good with us.
