Maya Jama Out, Ariana Madix In: Love Island Games Season 2 Host Revealed!

Love Island Games is making a comeback – but without leading lady Maya Jama.

The television host has chosen to no longer lead the spin-off show, where past Islanders battle it out for the cash reward by participating in various activities.

Instead, Ariana Madix, best known from the Bravo show Vanderpump Rules, will step in for the upcoming season.

2024 saw me stepping into the role as the host of Love Island USA, and it appears I’ve won over fans. Returning once more for the 2025 season, the series reached its thrilling conclusion just yesterday (13th July).

Following the announcement by Deadline, Ariana subsequently posted on her Instagram Stories with the caption: “The cat’s out of the bag! I’ll see you soon.

Love Island Games are set to make a comeback on your screens this coming Sunday, 14th September, on Peacock in the United States. In the UK, you’ll be able to watch it on ITVX starting from the same date.

Iain Stirling has been confirmed to continue his role as voiceover for the show.

In the inaugural season of Love Island Games, celebrities hailing from various editions of the series jetted off to Fiji, where they spent their summer immersed in both romance and challenging games. The goal was to secure an edge within the contest itself.

Love Island contestants from the UK were represented by Jack Fowler, Eyal Booker, Megan Barton-Hanson, and Georgia Steel (season 4), Curtis Pritchard (season 5), Mike Boeteng (season 6), Liberty Poole and Toby Aromolaran (season 7), and Scott van-der-Sluis (season 10).

Contestants from the UK’s Love Island were represented by Jack Fowler, Eyal Booker, Megan Barton-Hanson, Georgia Steel (season 4); Curtis Pritchard (season 5); Mike Boeteng (season 6); Liberty Poole and Toby Aromolaran (season 7); and Scott van-der-Sluis (season 10).

After a thrilling journey, I found myself standing victorious beside Justine Ndiba, a captivating contestant from Love Island USA’s second season.

Although they appeared to be a solid pair at the end of the series, Jack clarified that he and Justine chose to maintain a friendship four months following the show’s conclusion.

Before their separation, they often expressed in interviews following their victory that the geographical distance between the United Kingdom and the United States posed a significant challenge in maintaining their relationship.

Although Jama has left the Love Island Games, the show continues to keep him occupied as the UK season is currently running.

Additionally, she’s been the host for Love Island All Stars during the last two seasons, while juggling her responsibilities as a model, brand representative, and businesswoman.
