Love Island USA season 7 has officially begun! After a bit of a delay, the reality dating show returned to Peacock on June 3 for another jam-packed summer of bikinis, bombshells, and more drama than some viewers can handle (especially those who aren't used to the daily release schedule). It's too early to say whether this year's installment will reach the phenomenal heights of season 6, but the first week shows that this year's Islanders are very watchable. Below, read on to get to know the cast of Love Island USA season 7, in order of when they arrived at and exited the Villa. Spoilers up to Episode 9 (June 12) ahead.
