According to Mike Spencer, Creative Director of Love Island, he revealed that producers are throwing away the rulebook for the Hideaway.

Capital XTRA were treated to a VIP tour of the new villa, and Mike revealed that the saucy room will no longer be restricted to those in couples.

Couples will also get access to the decking area and the iconic hot tub, as Mike said: "At the moment, and this is very work in progress, you shouldn’t be in a couple to go in the Hideaway.

"Because sometimes, by default or by re-couplings, you might end up in a friendship so the idea is that there is no invite needed, as long as you are not in a couple."

The team also told us that the usual parade of sexy costumes has been scrapped this year, which could be a relief to some fans cringing at the thought of it.

The Hideaway will also be open at all times for the upcoming series, which is decorated in tones of luxurious red and gold for the new islanders.
