Love Island VIP season 3 broadcast

Overview

The third season of the reality television series ‘Love Island VIP’, hosted by Sylvie Meis, is currently airing in Greece. The competition features 20 contestants—ten men and ten women—including established personalities such as Camelia Minicuta, Calvin Steiner, and Tim Kühnel, competing for a prize of 50,000 euros.

Following the premiere, which began on the RTL+ streaming platform on September 16, 2026, and moved to the free-to-air channel RTL2 on September 23, 2026, the season has seen significant interpersonal shifts. Contestant Eva Benetatou addressed rumors regarding her connection with Jannik Kontalis, noting they have known each other for three years but their participation was not pre-arranged. Other early developments included Henna Urrehmann and Rafael Neugart forming a couple, and Greta Barthel expressing interest in Neugart.

Recent episodes have introduced unannounced newcomers, such as Giuliano, whose arrival has sparked tension regarding personal rumors and existing relationships in the villa. Additionally, the entry of Paco Herb, who chose Marla, has impacted Tim Kühnel, while the arrival of Chiara has prompted further discussions regarding the relationship between Eva and Jannik.

More recent developments include Jannik Kontalis sharing a personal story about his mother’s health during a date with Eva Benetatou. Tim Kühnel has also addressed rumors concerning his past relationship with influencer Ariel. Following a nomination round where contestants identified those not sufficiently pursuing romance, tensions surfaced between Henna Urrehman and Nelson Henry. Furthermore, a recent elimination process resulted in two unexpected exits from the competition.
