When is Casa Amor 2023?

What is Casa Amor?
The most eagerly-awaited part of Love Island is this - when the girls or boys get packed off to a second villa to meet a whole new bunch of singletons while those back in the original villa also get some fresh contestants.
They are then given a couple of days to mingle, build bonds and possibly make lasting connections before they're asked whether they want to recouple, or stick with their partner back in the original villa.
If both people recouple, then there's two new pairs, if one is left standing single, they are at risk of being dumped from the villa.
This part of the Love Island experience has become responsible for some of the biggest break ups and busts in the show's history.
