AceShowbiz - Ciara Miller has stepped into a new role as co-host of Love Island USA's companion show, Love Island Aftersun, for the series’ eighth season. She will share hosting duties alongside content creator Tefi Pessoa, taking over after Maura Higgins' departure from the show.

The new hosting arrangement was announced in May 2026, with Miller traveling to Fiji to begin filming for the talk show that airs on Peacock. Love Island Aftersun serves as a weekly recap and analysis series that breaks down the main events of the popular reality dating competition. Alongside Miller and Pessoa, Ariana Madix is set to return as the primary host of the main Love Island USA series.

Love Island USA first premiered in 2019 and has run for eight seasons under CBS distribution and ITV Global Entertainment production. The reality series has developed a dedicated fanbase, with its companion Aftersun show providing deeper insight and commentary on the drama unfolding in the villa. The hosting lineup change for Aftersun aligns with the show's ongoing efforts to refresh its content and engage viewers more directly.

Miller’s new role marks a significant step beyond her established presence on Bravo’s Summer House, where she has been a standout cast member since Season 5. Her transition into hosting on a major reality series companion show highlights her growing profile within the reality TV landscape. This move also coincides with heightened viewer interest following the public drama surrounding her personal life and the reunion events from Summer House.
