Love Island USA Season 7: Amaya & Bryan Call It Quits, Ace Throws Shade at “Nicolandria”

Chile… I told y’all these Love Island couples don’t last longer than a bag of hot Cheetos at a sleepover! One minute Amaya and Bryan are holding that big ol’ $100K check, smiling like they just cracked the Da Vinci Code of love… and the next minute? Boom. Done. Over. Finito.

Amaya & Bryan: From Villa Vows to Insta-Unfollow

So let’s start with the obvious tea—Amaya and Bryan. The winners! The couple everybody thought was about to run up couples’ sponsorships, matching pajamas ads, and podcast appearances. Well, baby, two days after the reunion aired, Amaya hit Instagram with a breakup announcement like it was a sponsored post.

She basically said, “We’re on two different journeys, relationships are supposed to be a team sport.” Translation: Bryan fumbled the bag. And let’s not forget the “you don’t have to drink the whole sea to know it’s salty” line. Oop! That was shade wrapped in a proverb.

And Bryan? He got on his own soapbox to say thanks for the memories. No mess, no shade, just vibes. But let’s be real, the boy was already caught in those streets with other women on video. Amaya defended him at the reunion like a ride-or-die, and a week later she’s packing her bags. Baby, if that ain’t reality TV whiplash, I don’t know what is.

Ace vs. “Nicolandria”

Now onto Ace. Lawd. If mess was a man, it would be him. He couldn’t let Amaya and Bryan have their little breakup moment in peace—oh no. He had to pop out with opinions about Nic and Olandria, a.k.a. “Nicolandria.”

Ace got on TikTok and basically said, that relationship ain’t real. Allegedly, they’re doing it for show. Sir… you were sent home before the finale, calm down! And what makes it worse is he keeps calling Olandria his “friend” while at the same time lowkey dragging her romance. That’s not friendship, that’s freeloading gossip.

Fans on Reddit are heated. Half of them think Ace is exposing some truth, the other half think he’s just bitter because he’s back at home eating wings while Nicolandria is out here doing couple collabs. Either way, Ace got the internet buzzing—and isn’t that what he wanted all along?

Final Sip of Tea

So here we are: Amaya and Bryan are over, Ace is stirring the Nicolandria pot, and Love Island USA Season 7 proves once again that the real show starts after the villa ends. Forget Casa Amor—Instagram unfollows and TikTok shade are where the real battles happen.

And honestly? I’m living for it. Pass me the popcorn.
