Erm, here’s why everyone thinks Chelley and Ace are Love Island USA’s biggest game players
That very steamy challenge was a 'giveaway'
Love Island USA is back with a fresh new season this summer. But, one thing that’s seemingly not so new is Chelley Bissainthe and Ace Greene’s relationship. The two appear to have some serious chemistry, to the point that Chelley’s partner is actually saying it out loud. Things have gone so far that people are now conjuring up a theory that Chelley and Ace are duping us all on Love Island USA.
They met before Love Island USA
So, kicking things off as to why everyone thinks Chelley and Ace are Love Island USA’s biggest game players going – they already knew each other.
As soon as the two saw each other in the villa, no introductions were needed.
Chelley told Ace: “I know you.”
Not only did the duo meet in a club, but they carried on their flirtation via Instagram!
People are fuming over the fact that the two have “been liking each other pics from 2022.”
They’re both influencers
Speaking of Instagram, it’s something both Chelley and Ace are more than familiar with.
Although Love Island USA has seen its fair share of models and influencers in its time, these two are pretty Insta-famous.
Chelley is a model, day trader, and influencer with 171,000 Instagram followers.
She also has 184,000 on TikTok. Plus, she’s raked in 1.2 million likes on TikTok.
Ace is a TikTok-famous dancer, model, and, erm, everything else under the sun.
Per his own official website, he is a “DJ, comedian, model, choreographer, YouTuber, and professional party host.”
Erm, *that* steamy challenge
When it comes to popularity, Ace and Chelley both clearly know how to rake in the likes online.
They’re no strangers to being in the spotlight, but it looked like they could’ve started giving their game away during one challenge.
Supporting the fan theory that they’re “scamming” their way to the top on Love Island USA, Chelley and Ace got pretty steamy in episode eight.
The two were giving “couple” vibes, per one Reddit user.
They wrote: “Ace licking the cream then kissing her is so f***ing gross only a couple would do that…”
But another shared an “unpopular opinion,” and wrote:
“Unpopular I don’t want Ace out the villa. He is literally the entertainment it will be so boring without him. Him and Chelley are honestly the only ones that actually have chemistry to me.”
The boundaries thing

Chelley and Ace’s seemingly undeniable connection has people quite confused.
Ace was given the opportunity to couple up with Chelley, but he opted to get to know Amaya.
But, a lot of criticism has been thrown his way since. Lots of people have called Ace out for his “behaviour,” and some stated their confusion over the “boundaries” he had with Amaya, versus those he didn’t have with Chelley – who wasn’t even his partner.
Chelley continued to be partnered with Austin, and he’s even had something to say about their chemistry.
Ace seemed to think the two might be “playing a weird game.”
