Described as a “modern-day fairytale meets buddy comedy,” the reality dating series will follow the players as they encounter drama, heartbreak and self-discovery, according to the official logline. “Can they win over the ladies without their fame and fortune?” the logline reads. “And will any of them fall for an American princess before returning to the global stage?”

The new season of “Love Island USA” expands the franchise’s footprint on Peacock, which also includes “Love Island Games” and “Love Island: All Stars.”

Details on casting for the upcoming season is currently unknown, as is whether Sarah Hyland will return to host the sixth installment after hosting Seasons 4 and 5.

Produced by ITV Entertainment, an ITV America company, executive producers for “Love Island USA” include David George, Adam Sher, Simon Thomas, Ben Thursby-Palmer, Claudine Parrish, James Barker, Blake Garrett, Courtney Rosenthall, Richard Cowles, Mike Spencer, Richard Foster and Chet Fenster.  

“Queen’s Court” was renewed for a second season after debuting in May 2023.

Hosted by Holly Robinson Peete and Rodney Peete, the new installment follows “three new celebrity queens who embark on a journey of a lifetime to find their King by dating 22 confident, successful men,” according to the official logline.
