Love Island Australia films in Fiji for first time with power couples twist

Love Island Australia moves to Fiji's Love Island USA villa, with six past-winner couples controlling the new season.

For the first time, Love Island Australia is filming at the Love Island USA villa in Fiji. Sophie Monk hosts the season eight show, which pairs new single cast members with a twist: six power couples from past seasons run the villa.

The couples are Claudia and Austen (season four winners), Kale and Tyra (season five winners), Georgia and Nate (season five), Eric and Kaylah (season six), Kye and Yana (season seven winners), and Connor and Isabel (season seven).

The new season will also get a companion series called Love Island Australia: Unseen. Uncut on Stan, with exclusive behind-the-scenes footage.

The winner takes home $50,000.
