Speaking for the first time about the series at Louise Redknapp's Heavy Love album launch, Caroline exclusively told The Sun Online: "I literally cannot wait. It is going to be so hot. Probably the hottest one yet.

"Cape Town, can you believe it? Love Island's twice a year now, it's going to be mad."

Caroline has hosted every series of the show since in returned to screens in 2015, nine years after the second, and final, celebrity version of the programme.

Paul Mortimer, Head of Digital Channels and Acquisitions at ITV, explained: “Off the back of a record-breaking year, we're delighted to be bringing an extra series of our biggest and sunniest show to the 2020 schedule.

"Love Island has proven yet again to be the perfect format that engages younger audiences.

"In response to this viewer appetite, a new batch of young singletons will deliver some highly anticipated post-Christmas romance and drama from our new and luxurious location."

The usual Majorcan-based series will then return for a summer of love closer to home.
