What is casa amor?

Casa Amor is a separate villa introduced in the reality dating show Love Island. It serves as a major test for the existing couples in the main villa.

Here's how it works:

• The Twist: Half of the Islanders (usually the girls) are moved to Casa Amor, while the other half remains in the main villa.

• New Islanders: Both the main villa and Casa Amor are populated with a new set of single Islanders. The original Islanders are tempted to couple up with these newcomers.

• The Temptation: The goal is to see if the existing relationships can withstand the temptation of new connections. Islanders in both villas get to know the new arrivals and explore potential romantic interests.

• Recoupling: After a few days, the Islanders must decide whether to stick with their original partner or couple up with someone new. This recoupling ceremony is often dramatic, as Islanders who choose to recouple leave their original partner single and vulnerable.

• Consequences: Islanders who remain single after the recoupling are typically dumped from the island.

• Purpose: Casa Amor is designed to create drama, test relationships, and introduce new dynamics into the competition. It is generally seen as a pivotal moment in the series, often leading to breakups, new couples, and significant shifts in alliances.
