Meet the islanders of Love Island USA 2025 — a season full of romance, drama, and unexpected twists
The Season 7 finale of “Love Island USA” aired on July 13, officially naming Amaya Espinal and Bryan Arenales as America’s favorite couple. The fan-favorite duo walked away with not just love, but also a shared cash prize of $100,000.
Following closely behind in second place were Nic Vansteenberghe and Olandria Carthen, who earned their spot as runners-up based on public votes. Other finalists included Iris Kendall and Pepe Garcia-Gonzalez, as well as Huda Mustafa and Chris Seeley. Meanwhile, longtime villa residents Chelley Bissainthe and Ace Greene were eliminated in the last episode before the finale, following a public vote.
Fans eager to catch up with the islanders post-show can look forward to the Season 7 reunion, which is scheduled to premiere on Monday, August 25 at 9 p.m. ET.
While the romance and drama kept audiences hooked, Season 7 also sparked significant controversy due to the early and unexplained exits of two original cast members — Yulissa Escobar and Cierra Ortega. Both were removed off-camera with minimal explanation.
The departures were later connected to resurfaced online content involving racial slurs, which led to significant viewer backlash. Escobar had faced criticism prior to the season’s premiere for using offensive language in an old podcast, for which she later issued an apology. Similarly, Ortega’s alleged social media activity, which contained racially charged language, became public just before her removal from the villa.
“Love Island USA” Season 7 began with high expectations on June 3, offering viewers the usual mix of emotional turbulence, competitive challenges, and romantic twists. However, the controversies surrounding some of the contestants cast a shadow over the otherwise entertainment-filled season.
As fans look ahead to the reunion and possible future seasons, Season 7 will likely be remembered for both its standout couple and the difficult conversations it sparked.
