Love Island USA season 8 cast includes Paralympian and British islander

The cast for the eighth season of Love Island USA has been revealed, featuring a Paralympic athlete and a British-born contestant whose brother appeared on a previous series. The show, hosted by Ariana Madix, returns to Peacock on June 2.

Among the 13 singles entering the villa is Beatriz Hatz, a Paralympic athlete from San Diego who won bronze in the Women’s Long Jump at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games. Born without a fibula in her right leg, she had the limb amputated below the knee at ten months old.

Zach Georgiou, from Birmingham, England, is another notable contestant. His brother Charlie featured on Love Island USA last year but was dumped by day 11. “I’m here to see if I can do better,” Zach said.

Other cast members include Aniya Harvey, daughter of retired NBA player Donnell Harvey; KC Chandler, a nursing assistant from Fresno, California; and Kenzie Annis, who graduated from nursing school days before entering the villa. The full line-up also features a handyman, a police officer, a track-and-field athlete, and a bikini store manager.

Vasana Montgomery was originally part of the cast but has been pulled from the group and will no longer appear on the show.
