Spinoff show Love Island: Aftersun will not return for the upcoming All Stars series, it has emerged.
The programme typically airs weekly during each series of the dating show, with host Maya Jama welcoming celebrity fans and dumped Islanders to dissect the past week's events.
For All Stars, however, the spinoff will not be back, with Jama instead interviewing eliminated contestants during the main show - albeit still in front of a live audience.
A source told The Sun: "Bosses want the new series to feel and look really different from the regular series, and this time around, when islanders leave the villa, they will be greeted by host Maya Jama upon their exit who will grill them for all the goss fresh from the firepit.
"It means Maya will have even more screentime which will thrill viewers, who can't get enough of her, and also that there will be loads more reaction from the All-Stars the second they get dumped.
"This isn't the end of Aftersun though, it will absolutely be back. The difference with All Stars, however, is that it's almost like a completely new show, so producers wanted that to be reflected in how the exit interviews are done too."
Love Island: All Stars begins Monday, January 15 at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
