‘Love Island USA' Season 7: Who Won And Which Couples Are Still Together?
Warning: Spoilers ahead for the Love Island USA Season 7 finale.
We finally have our Love Island USA Season 7 winners. America voted for the last time this season, and the results were revealed during the highly-anticipated finale on Sunday, July 13. Read on to find out who won, which couples are still together, and who has called it quits.
Season 7 returned in early June, and over six weeks, viewers watched a new group of Islanders live together and couple up, seeking love and competing for a cash prize of $100,000. Bombshells entered the villa to test existing relationships, and the contestants faced the ultimate challenge: Casa Amor, which broke up fan-favorite pair Taylor and Clarke.
O.G. Islanders and fan favorites were sent packing, including Belle-A, Charlie, Hannah and TJ. Ace and Chelley were the last couple to go home after becoming closed off and spending a night in the Hideaway. Ultimately, America chose Bryan and Amaya, Nic and Olandria, Chris and Huda, and Pepe and Iris as the final four couples to compete for the $100,000 prize.
In the finale, each of the couples left the villa for their final dates. Olandria and Nic were up first, enjoying a romantic beachside date where they read messages from their loved ones and fans back home. Next, Iris and Pepe went on a sailboat date and talked about their future outside the villa.

Huda and Chris went on a romantic dinner date, where they aired their frustrations with one another. Huda admitted she wasn't sure how they would work on their physical relationship long-distance, while Chris questioned her confidence in their connection. Huda ended the date by saying they should 'just be friends.'
Amaya and Bryan were the last couple to go on a date. They looked through a sweet album of childhood photos, and Bryan let Amaya know how much he cares about her and how he loves her energy. He also asked to make their relationship exclusive as they head into the outside world, to which she happily said yes!

The winners of Love Island USA 2025 are Amaya and Bryan. Iris and Pepe placed fourth, followed by Huda and Chris in third. Nic and Olandria were the runners-up for Season 7.
'I feel like I'm flying in the sky right now. But to feel so seen and validated, and for people to see how powerful our connection is — and like, boy, was this a ride here on Love Island,' she said. 'I would do this ride all over again if it led me to him.'
Amaya also gave a message to anyone out there who might be feeling misunderstood. 'Nobody should ever be tamed, and that there's always someone out there for you who's going to love you for you and appreciate all of your craziness, or whoever you are. Don't ever settle for nobody,' she added.
When asked how he was feeling, Bryan responded, 'I don't even know how to put it into words. Meeting Amaya here turned my experience around ridiculously. I'm so thankful to meet this person,' he said. 'I would do this experience a hundred times over. It feels surreal.'
Amaya and Bryan were each handed an envelope, but only one had the $100,000 prize inside. Bryan chose the envelope with the money and he decided to split the earnings with Amaya, proving that he came on Love Island 'for love' and not just the money.

Relationship status: Unknown, but likely still together
Following the finale, Amaya and Bryan are likely still together, as the show only films a few days in advance. The couple officially closed things off during their last date. Amaya (@amayaelizabeth_) still hasn't posted a post-show update on Instagram, but Bryan (@brizzzworks) recently revealed he got his phone back, so we should get a relationship update soon.
The winners previously spoke about what life on the outside could look like, especially since they both live in different cities on the East Coast.
'Obviously, I live in Boston and you live in New York. When it gets to that point, it's an a lot easier of a transition,' Bryan told Amaya during an episode. 'Do you see yourself coming to New York?' Amaya asked Bryan. He replied, 'I was in New York the weekend before I came here.' Amaya added, 'Well, our first date has to be in the city… I'm really excited for us. I feel like we have something great growing.'

Relationship status: Unknown, but likely still together
Nic and Olandria haven't shared an update on their relationship status since the finale. It also doesn't seem like they've gotten their phones back, as their Instagram accounts are still being run by friends and family. In the finale, the pair expressed wanting to explore their connection outside the villa, and they've received support from their families, some of whom visited them in Fiji.
Nic's former connection, Cierra, who was kicked off the show for using a racial slur in a past social media post, subtly supported her former partner's new connection with her best friend. According to Us Weekly, Cierra liked an Instagram post from Nic's loved ones which showed fan edits and behind-the-scenes photos of him and Olandria, with the caption, 'And so it was written in the stars.'

Relationship status: Unknown, but likely still together
Fourth-place couple Iris and Pepe also haven't shared a relationship update since Sunday's finale. Both bombshells experienced heartbreak in the villa when their respective connections, TJ and Hannah, were sent packing, but were ultimately led to each other after Casa Amor.
There's a strong possibility that their connection could continue outside the villa, as they're both from California. Iris is from Los Angeles, while Pepe lives in Santa Ana. While they have yet to post on social media, Pepe's mom offered support for him and Iris, stating she wants to see them work on the outside.
'Watching Pepe and Iris together has been such a joy. I've seen real connection form between them, and I sincerely hope their story continues beyond the show,' she wrote. 'More than anything, I want my son to be happy… to be loved for who he truly is and to be with someone who brings out the best in him.'

Relationship status: Broken up
Ultimately, the Love Island experience didn't work for Chris and Huda, and the pair called things off in the finale. (According to People, they actually became the first Love Island couple in franchise history to break up during the finale.) Chris's main issue was their communication style and Huda's lack of affection in front of other Islanders. Meanwhile, Huda was upset that Chris didn't want to cuddle her in bed and wasn't focused on their physical relationship.
'Moving forward in the outside world, there's no more time in here to figure this out. We're not exclusive, we're still getting to know each other and a lot of the things that we do need are the physical aspects. I'm not sure how we would work on that with long distance," she said on their emotional dinner date.
While Chris said he willing to put in the work, he claimed that she wasn't being 'confident in our connection.' Ultimately, Huda decided that they 'should just be friends.'

Relationship status: Still together
Ace and Chelley may not have made it to the finale, but they had one of the strongest (and longest) connections throughout the entire experience. After leaving the villa, the pair confirmed they were still together, and Chelley is looking to move to Los Angeles, where Ace currently lives.
'We found each other, and we've grown together. There's no more I could ask for. It was very evident that's what America wanted,' Chelley told Variety.
When asked what dating looks like for them now outside of Fiji, Ace explained that they're still getting to know each other without the confines of the dating show.
'We are going to take our time day by day. We are still getting to know each other outside of villa life,' he said. 'Life is completely different from what America gets to see. I'm excited to grow our relationship and improve our communication, especially since she's in Florida. I'm in L.A., but she's looking to move to L.A., and we'll go from there.'

Relationship status: Still together
Taylor and Clarke had a bumpy journey in the villa after Taylor left Olandria to recouple with Clarke following Casa Amor. While they became exclusive and progressed in their relationship, they didn't receive America's vote and were booted the week before the finale.
Both Taylor and Clarke have confirmed that they are still going strong after leaving Fiji. "We're still the same as we were in the villa," Taylor told TODAY.com. "That's why I used the word exclusive instead of closed off. Closed off is a villa term. You're not in the outside world saying, 'We're closed off.'"
Taylor added that their exclusive relationship is "something that I see on the outside world and something that I want to keep growing on the outside world." However, they'll have to manage a long-distance relationship, as Taylor is from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and Clarke is from Charlotte, North Carolina.
"I'm going to go to Oklahoma and do the rodeo situation, and then he's going to come visit me in Charlotte," Clarke added. 'Definitely, like a lot of traveling, but things to look forward to.'

Lo Bosworth Natale Is Married and Expecting Her First Baby with Husband Dom Natale (Exclusive)
'The Hills' and 'Laguna Beach' alum, who is 4 months pregnant, tied the knot with Natale in an 'intimate wedding' at her parents home on July 20 Lo Bosworth is married and has a baby on the way! The Hills and Laguna Beach alum, 38, tied the knot with investor Dom Natale at the bride's family's home in Laguna Beach on Sunday, July 20. The newlyweds are expecting their first child together, they exclusively reveal to PEOPLE. "We wanted our wedding to meet the moment of where we're at right now," Bosworth tells PEOPLE. "I'm about four months pregnant, and before starting our fertility journey we thought about a big, New York City wedding. Once our family plans got underway however, we changed course to something we knew would be perfect if I was lucky enough to get pregnant: an intimate wedding with our closest family members enjoyed at home. We could take off our shoes, stretch out, enjoy great food and the beautiful decor and relax." The intimate ceremony was attended by 28 of the couple's closest friends and family members. "Getting married at home in Laguna felt right for us — inviting, calming, and full of love," Bosworth shares. "We've both been in NYC for about 15 years and for me, going home to Laguna to get married feels very full-circle." Although the wedding was small, it was everything Bosworth and Natale envisioned. "We wanted an understated, but colorful luncheon that felt inviting instead of stuffy. When your reception is in your backyard and you invite guests to jump in the pool, you need to be laid back about it all," the expectant mother says. "Gorgeous florals" were a non-negotiable for the couple's celebration. Gary Samuelian executed the striped design and stunning arrangements "perfectly." Adding "just the right touch of fun" was a mix-and-match of colorful china, drinkware and florals "in unexpected places." "Even though we celebrated our luncheon in my parent's backyard, we knew it should still feel elevated, unique, and special," Bosworth says. Cassandra Katz of Cassandra Bette Events also made planning the big day "so easy" for Bosworth and Natale. "Hosting at home can present a unique set of challenges, and one of my big concerns was leaving very little for my parents to manage once the wedding was over," Bosworth says. "We pulled it off with a great team and help." As they exchanged traditional vows, Bosworth wore a wedding dress designed and tailored by Hailey Desjardins. She was styled by Thomas Carter Philips, and did her hair and makeup herself. Meanwhile, Natale opted for a Brunello Cucinelli suit. "When we set our date in July, we didn't know if our planned IVF cycle would be successful. I bought a dress (or two) early on in the hopes one would still work if we got lucky," Bosworth says. "Three weeks before my wedding, nothing fit and I put into a call to my stylist friend, Thomas Carter Phillips, who works with an incredibly talented tailor, Hailey Desjardins, to build me a dress from scratch." She continues: "At that point, I was more than three months pregnant, had gained weight from the transfer medications and was starting to show. We decided a classic look that accentuated my bump would be best. My finished dress got delivered at 8 p.m. the night before I left for our wedding, and I could not be more grateful to Tommy and Hailey for saving me in one the most extreme pinches of my life." After Bosworth and Natale said "I do," they shared their first dance to Aretha Franklin's 'Kissin' by the Mistletoe." Despite the wedding taking place in the summer, Bosworth wanted to surprise the Natale family with the 1962 winter song because their surname means Christmas in Italian. Plus, she and Natale met during the holidays "a few years ago." For dinner, guests enjoyed Mexican food served family style. For dessert were slices of five wedding cakes: lemon poppyseed, brown sugar cheesecake, flourless chocolate, carrot, and hummingbird. Guests were also gifted towels with their name embroidered on wedding comes about a month after Bosworth revealed on Northwestern Mutual's A Better Way to Money podcast that she and Natale would be opting for a "micro-wedding.' The couple thought of the idea after a 'spur of the moment engagement party' they had at a local bar. 'Ultimately, we decided to shift our priorities because we would like to start a family. We would like to buy a house and those things cost money and you have to plan for your future,' Bosworth said. 'And so we are going to have a small, family-only wedding this summer. We're going to get married in Laguna Beach." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from juicy celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. She added at the time that they planned to go to her parents' house 'and have a celebration in the backyard with just family and keep it really special and meaningful.'

Book Review: ‘Gwyneth' is a portrait of a pioneering and polarizing ‘It girl' and wellness mogul
'Gwyneth: The Biography,' Amy Odell's thorough portrait of Gwyneth Paltrow, splits her life and career into two distinct periods: the rise (and fall) of the quintessential '90s Hollywood 'It girl,' and her transformation to wellness mogul with the creation of lifestyle brand Goop. In both phases, she struggles with likeability in the press and from the public, often coming across in interviews as elitist and out of touch with 'normal' Americans. But that hasn't stopped her from succeeding on both fronts. Blond, glamorous and patrician, Paltrow is the ultimate nepo baby, the daughter of actor Blythe Danner and TV producer Bruce Paltrow, acting from an early age at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts. In the first half of the book, Odell charts Paltrow's rise from chain-smoking party girl at elite New York private school Spence to Hollywood 'It girl.' She starred in 1990s classics like ' Emma,' 'Sliding Doors' and 'Shakespeare in Love,' for which she won an Oscar at 26. She was on the cover of Vogue and constantly in the tabloids with movie star boyfriends like Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck. But she eventually soured on Hollywood and turned to her burgeoning interest in lifestyle and wellness. She started Goop as a newsletter in 2008. Goop promoted some dubious wellness theories and was hit with the same press bashing as she had gotten as an actor. 'Gwyneth has, to her extraordinary credit, found a way to be even more annoying,' the Guardian wrote when Goop launched in 2008. But Odell — who didn't have access to Paltrow or any close family or friends, but based the book on more than 200 interviews with people who know or worked with Paltrow — shows Paltrow has a masterful control of her image, working negative press to her advantage. At Goop, a $66 jade egg meant to be inserted vaginally and a $75 candle called "This Smells Like My Vagina' were ridiculed in the press — and sold out in short order. When Goop launched a travel app, an advertiser sponsored it with the promise that it would reach 10,000 downloads. 'Call it G. Spotting,' Gwyneth told an executive, according to Odell. 'Everybody will make fun of me for being an idiot and we'll have the 10,000 downloads we need right there." It worked. 'Gwyneth: The Biography' is a satisfying read about the pioneering and polarizing actor and business woman. ___ AP book reviews: Mae Anderson, The Associated Press

Bengals' Chase, Ravens' Jackson, two Eagles enter 'Madden' 99 club
July 28 (UPI) -- Ja'Marr Chase, Lamar Jackson and two Philadelphia Eagles stars are among seven NFL players in the Madden NFL 26 99 club, EA Sports announced Monday. Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson, Cleveland Browns pass rusher Myles Garrett and Buffalo Bills quarterback and reigning NFL MVP Josh Allen join that foursome as the highest-rated players in the game. Madden NFL 26 will launch Aug. 14. Eagles running back Saquon Barkley and right tackle Lane Johnson represent the third set of teammates honored in the last three editions of the 99 club. Last month, EA Sports also named Barkley as the cover star of Madden NFL 26. Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill, San Francisco 49ers teammates Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams and Kansas City Chiefs teammates Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were in the 99 club for Madden NFL 25. Jefferson, former Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald and Dallas Cowboys guard Zack Martin joined Mahomes and Kelce in the 99 club in Madden NFL 24. Rookie ratings for Madden NFL 26 are expected to be revealed Tuesday. EA Sports plans to roll out additional player ratings Wednesday and Thursday for top offensive and defensive players.
