Wait a minute, Chelley and Amaya knew each other before Love Island USA?!
This is all getting a bit much now
Chelley and Amaya literally knew each other before Love Island USA, and they’ve openly discussed their pre-villa friendship. When Amaya came in and had eyes for Ace, it became strange, purely because Chelley was also developing a romance with him.
Chelley and Amaya knew each other before Love Island USA
Amaya and Chelley knew each other on the outside, which is just baffling, because Chelley and Ace were also in touch earlier this year. During a conversation, Amaya told Chelley, “I thought we had a friendship… us knowing each other outside of all of this.”
She mentioned it briefly after telling Chelley that “the way she went about it was messy.” They already follow each other on Instagram, and in March, Amaya posted a photo, in which Chelley liked and commented multiple heart emojis underneath.
Basically, Amaya was telling Chelley that she deserves loyalty, even though she walked into the villa as a bombshell and stole her man. Ace immediately decided to recouple with Amaya, which left Chelley having to pair up with Austin in a friendship couple.
We looked at all the evidence of their friendship
Amaya and Chelley have been liking each other’s photos for years. They don’t only follow each other on socials, but are both living in New York City and therefore have ended up hanging out in the same influencer circles in the area.
Despite them both being in a love triangle with Ace, Amaya did kiss Austin, which Chelley seems to be unaware of, while she claimed that she didn’t know he had a connection with Chelley. Plus, Chelley said she wasn’t surprised he picked Amaya over her at the recoupling!
Another piece of evidence was when Chelley got mad over Huda talking about Amaya. Looking through their photos on socials, Chelley has liked almost every post of Amaya’s, and commented on multiple photos.
Taylor’s supposed ex did a TikTok video talking about how she was included in the casting but wasn’t called back. She said it was “pretty clear they were looking for a couple who knew each other and to create drama that way.”
