Love Island: The Debrief is a British television aftershow that discusses episodes and events regarding that of its main series, Love Island. It airs following episodes of the main series and is formatted as a visual podcast. Having aired on ITV2 since 2026 for the thirteenth series of Love Island, it is presented by former contestants Shakira Khan, Toni Laites and Yasmin Pettet.

History

From 2018 to 2025, the ITV2 dating reality series Love Island was accompanied by an online podcast, Love Island: The Morning After. The podcast saw various presenting line-ups throughout its tenure and was cancelled in 2026 after final hosts Amy Hart and Indiyah Polack announced they were quitting the series. It was then announced ahead of the thirteenth series of Love Island that The Morning After had been replaced by The Debrief. Still filmed as a visual podcast, the series airs on weeknights following episodes of the main series. It marked the first time Love Island's podcast spin-off had aired on linear television.

The Debrief is presented by former contestants Shakira Khan, Toni Laites and Yasmin Pettet, all of whom appeared on the twelfth series of the main programme and became "fan favourites". Speaking on their casting, Laites said that it was the perfect opportunity for the trio since with each Love Island episode, there would "automatically something to talk about every day". She added that despite the trio being close friends, they never tend to agree on things, especially dating and as a result, would each bring different opinions to the series. Ahead of the launch of the series, it was stated that viewers could expect "villa gossip, hot takes [and] chaotic group chat energy". Producers of the Love Island franchise confirmed that Khan, Laites and Pettet would be interviewing the dumped contestants.
