The villa has officially shut its doors and the drama did not disappoint. The Love Island USA Season 7 finale delivered everything fans were hoping for â romance, chaos, emotional exits, and a prize that made one lucky couple $100,000 richer. Whether you missed it or just want to relive the rollercoaster, this is your ultimate Love Island Season 7 finale recap with all the juicy details.
Letâs get into who won the cash, who walked away heartbroken, and who accidentally started a breakup with a pillow. Yes, that really happened.
đïž The Final Four Couples Face Off
After weeks of recouplings, bombshells, and villa madness, these four couples made it to the finale:
Amaya Espinal and Bryan Arenales
Nic Vansteenberghe and Olandria Carthen
Huda Mustafa and Chris Seeley
Iris Kendall and Pepe Garcia
Each duo had one last romantic date, a glammed-up finale party, and the big moment where America had their say. Spoiler: not everyone made it out in one piece.
đ Amaya and Bryan Win It All and Split the Prize
Cue the confetti. Amaya and Bryan were crowned the winners of Season 7 and honestly, it felt right. These two had one of the most genuine slow-burn love stories of the season. Bryanâs calm energy and Amayaâs no-nonsense vibe were a match made in villa heaven.
During the infamous trust envelope moment, Bryan drew the envelope containing the $100,000 prize and immediately chose to split it with Amaya. No hesitation. No drama. Just a refreshing moment of loyalty in a show built on chaos.
They also left the villa as an official couple and made it exclusive during their final date. America loves a happy ending â and they delivered.
đ Nic and Olandria Take Second but Win Hearts
Coming in second but totally stealing the show were Nic and Olandria, affectionately known as Nicolandria online. Their chemistry was electric, their chats were hilarious, and their glow-up as a couple was one of the best arcs of the season.
While they didnât walk away with the money, they won a huge fanbase and may just be the breakout stars once the show ends. They had main character energy without being insufferable. Iconic behavior, honestly.
đ Huda and Chris Break Up Over a Pillow Fight
Now hereâs where it gets weird. Huda and Chris, who had a rocky relationship all season, completely unraveled during their final date. The drama? Chris accidentally hit Huda in the nose during a playful pillow fight. Unfortunately, she had just undergone a rhinoplasty, which made things go from flirty to frosty real fast.
Huda ended the night with a bandage on her face, and they both agreed to split before the finale ceremony. So yeah â they placed third, but as a non-couple. A Love Island first and an absolute mess we didnât know we needed.
đ¶ Iris and Pepe Land in Fourth Place Quietly
Rounding out the finalists were Iris and Pepe, who honestly⊠were kind of just there. Sweet? Sure. Likable? Absolutely. But in a season bursting with drama, they didnât bring enough heat to stay top of mind. Their final date was nice, their connection seemed real, but fourth place felt like a fair call.
Theyâre probably the type of couple who quietly date off-screen and surprise everyone with a wedding in three years. Weâre rooting for them, but letâs be real â they didnât carry the season.
đ The Envelope Twist Returns (And Goes Smoothly for Once)
The traditional envelope twist returned, where one partner randomly selects the $100K envelope and decides whether to keep the cash or share it.
Bryan drew the money envelope and, in a move that shocked no one, immediately chose to split it with Amaya. There were no theatrics, no last-minute betrayals. Just two people in love, leaving the show richer and still together. Refreshing, right?
đș Whatâs Next: Reunion Incoming
Mark your calendars. The Love Island USA Season 7 reunion airs August 25 on Peacock, and weâre expecting fireworks. With post-show drama bubbling up on social media already, the reunion will give exes a chance to face off and fans a look at whatâs happened since the villa closed.
Rumors suggest unfinished business between Huda and Chris, while others are speculating a possible love triangle involving a dumped Casa Amor bombshell. Bring popcorn.
đ€ Season 7 Served Everything
Season 7 of Love Island USAÂ delivered the ultimate reality TV cocktail â love, betrayal, ridiculous arguments, and a few surprisingly tender moments.
Amaya and Bryan walked away $100K richer and cuter than ever
Nicolandria gave fans a new OTP to obsess over
Huda and Chris gave us one of the weirdest breakups in Love Island history
And Iris and Pepe were⊠also there
This was a season where romance and chaos held hands and walked into the sunset. And honestly? Weâd watch it all over again.
What did you think of the finale? Were your faves robbed or crowned? Letâs hear your thoughts â the villa may be closed, but the drama lives on.
