Love Island has unveiled its first teaser trailer ahead of the hotly-anticipated season 11 launch.

The ITV2 dating show, rumoured to be returning on Monday, June 3, will see a new batch of singletons looking for love in Mallorca.

Ahead of announcing the contestants, ITV teased the new season with a video of an illusive figure dressed in a silver boiler suit wielding  flame thrower to the sound of an electric guitar.

The clip ends with Love Island’s iconic theme tune given a rock twist as the flame thrower erupts to spell out ‘this summer’s going to be fire!’

Show bosses will no doubt be hoping the programme is a bigger hit with viewers than the Love Island: All Stars spin-off that aired earlier this year.

While the series was the biggest digital programme of the year to date, it failed to pull in the viewing figures of its glory days.

After a dramatic series Molly Smith and Tom Clare were crowned the winners of the first ever Love Island All Stars in February.

The ITV reality show received the lowest ever ratings for a Love Island final, with only one million viewers tuning in live for the grand finale making it the least watched final since series one in 2015.

Including viewing figures from streaming platform ITVX, 1.3 million fans watched the final, in line with last year’s final of the winter series.

According to Super TV the ITV2 ratings made up just an 8.4 per cent share of viewing figures while Overnight TV statistics showed they made up a share of just 7.6 per cent.

Of this figure 0.4 million of viewers were aged between 16-34 year-old, an increase on last year’s Winter final.

Back in 2018, 3.6 million tuned in as Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham bagged the £50,000 followed by Amber Gill and Greg O’Shea who secured the highest rating ever for a final with 3.7 million.

Viewing figures for the final have taken a dip in a recent years as they declined to around one million after Davide Sanclimenti & Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu’s dramatic series conclusion which was viewed by three million.

Commenting on the declining figure, one fan wrote: ‘I’m hoping they don’t do a January series next year and they rest it. Just focus on the summer and give people a break.’

The reigning champions of the normal series are Jess Harding and Sammy Root, who won season 10 in July 2023 but the couple split just two months after the finale

The reigning champions of the normal series are Jess Harding and Sammy Root, who won season 10 in July 2023.

However, it wasn’t a match made in heaven as the lovebirds split just two months after scooping the £50,000 prize, MailOnline exclusively revealed.

A source close to the pair told MailOnline that they mutually decided they’re ‘better off as friends’ after struggling to make their romance work outside of the show.

Their win came as a shock as fans had not predicted they would beat favourites Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowacki to the title. Whitney and Lochan are still together.

Earlier this week, their successors and season nine winners Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan proved they are stronger than ever as they announced their engagement.

The couple, both 25, won the second, and ultimately last, winter series of Love Island in March 2023 and were the show’s first winning couple of colour.
