ITV2 has released a trailer for the first of two series of Love Island coming in 2023.

Having taken over from Laura Whitmore as host of the reality series, Maya Jama presented the promo, which first aired on 1 January 2023 during ITV's broadcast of the James Bond film No Time To Die.

Jama can be seen mounting a bejewelled, bright pink, bucking bronco before telling viewers: “it’s time to grab love by the horns, I am ready, are you?” 

The official Love Island Twitter account also shared the clip alongside the caption: “Winter just got a whole lot hotter”.

It was confirmed that there would be two series of Love Island in 2022, including a winter edition in South Africa followed by the usual "summer of love" in Mallorca.

Paul Mortimer, director of reality commissioning and controller at ITV, said: "Love Island has once again proved itself to be the nation’s favourite talking point across the summer, and we’re always blown away by the show’s ongoing impact and talkability amongst our younger audience.

"So, rather than just serving up a Summer of Love, we thought we’d make 2023 the Year of Love with two full seasons of the show."

Love Island will return to ITV2 on Monday 16 January 2023.
