The event of the season has finally arrived for Love Island fans. It's Casa Amor week - and here at Tyla we are as buzzing as you are!

Casa Amor was first introduced to the show's format during season three and it's been a highly anticipated event in the Love Island calendar ever since.

It's the ultimate test as we see which Islanders' heads get turned and which couples stay together.

How does Casa Amor work?

As the boys are shipped off to the new villa where they'll be joined by a whole host of bombshells, the girls will also entertain some new guests back at base.

On Monday night's show, Hugo, Jake, Liam, Teddy, Tyler and Toby will be whisked away to the famous second Villa and fans are sure to be sat on the edge of their seats as they witness heads being inevitably turned.

And for the first time ever, Casa Amor has its own hideaway - saucey.

Meanwhile, Chloe, who friendzoned Hugo on Sunday night's show, is on the lookout for a man, while Millie, Kaz, Liberty, Faye and Abigail are all happily coupled up... for now.

Everybody will be gritting their teeth and holding out all hope that Jiberty's love will survive the challenge after the two became boyfriend and girlfriend in week three.
