A CONTROVERSIAL Love Island UK star was seen snogging a US bombshell TWICE moments into the launch of the Games.
The spin-off show returns tonight in the US, and sees Brit stars go up against other Islanders from around the world.
To promote the new series of Love Island Games, fans were given a sneak peek of the launch show.
In the clip that was posted on Instagram, controversial season 10 Islander Tyrique Hyde can be seen kissing US Islander Andreina Santos during a challenge.
However, just seconds later they were back on the floor, snogging again.
During his time on Love Island in 2023, Tyrique raised more than a few eyebrows.
He famously had a fiery romance with Ella Thomas, who he was coupled up with from day one.
After leaving the villa the pair had an on/off relationship before they split in early 2024.
In another promo video for Love Island Games released a few days ago, Tyrique appeared to take a dig at his ex.
It came after the season 10 Islander was asked if he had ever been love.
However, he dismissed the question and said: “You have to be competitive in life. You compete every day, especially as a man.
“It feels good to be back. It’s been a while. Let’s get this show on the road.”
NEW HOST
Ariana Maddix, 40, was previously announced as the Love Island Games host, aft being a guest presenter on the show in season one.
She hosted the first three episodes, before Love Island UK host Maya Jama, 31, took over.
However, she has been announced as the host of the complete second series, which will once again be voiced by fan favourite UK narrator, Iain Stirling.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN
The spin-off show sees former contestants from international series including UK, Australia and the USA return to the show.
They will re-enter the villa for another chance at finding love and also the chance to win a $100,000 cash prize.
However, there’s even more gameplay as fan-favourite islanders compete in a variety of team and couple competitions.
Love Island Games kicks off on Peacock in the US tonight – with the series airing at a later date in the UK (to be confirmed)
