Wait, have Olandria and Nic actually left the Love Island USA villa?!
People are in bits over this dumping
Ok, so people have kinda been shipping Olandria Carthen and Nic Vansteenberghe from the get-go. So, when it seemed the two had been dumped from Love Island USA in season seven, people were, understandably, distraught. But, before everyone starts sobbing into their keyboards, there’s a chance the two haven’t actually left the villa at all…
People adore Olandria and Nic
Right from the start of Love Island USA season seven, people have seen a connection between Nic and Olandria.
The two were coupled up with other people. Olandria spent most of her time with Taylor Williams and Jalen Brown.
Nic was initially in a couple with Belle-A Walker, before dumping her for Cierra Ortega, and then Casa Amor came around.
All along, folks have been keen for Olandria and Nic to have a whirl at being together, and now it seems that prayer has been answered.
Speaking ahead of the season seven twist on TikTok, Nic’s mom revealed she’s feeling the vibes between her son and Olandria.
She’s ‘Team Nicolandria’ and said she thinks Olandria is “solid, authentic, and beautiful.”
Love Island USA brought another wild twist
Season seven has been filled with twists, and we’re seriously here for it.
The end of the Peacock show’s June 24 episode saw Olandria pull up in a black SUV and beckon Nic to join her in the car.
This all came after people thought the two favourites had been booted from the villa for good.
Now, everyone’s taking to X in full force to share their excitement.
One person tweeted: “That twist tells me one thing… Olandria and Nic are the producers’ favourites.”
Another said the moment was pure “cinema,” writing: “Love Island USA having us think Olandria and Nic was leaving the villa for good and then giving us plot twist of the f***ing century???? and giving Nicolandria hive what they deserve??? I have to give them their 10s…”
More said they were in tears over the moment: “Had me in here balling because Olandria went home all for her to go and kidnap Nic who also got eliminated at the end. HAVE WE BEEN SAVED??”
Maybe Olandria and Nic are still on the show

By the looks of things, Nic and Olandria haven’t been removed from the show entirely.
Some people are speculating that the two have been “sent to a hideaway until Casa Amor is finished so that they can explore their connection.”
Another tweeted: “Now if it wasn’t Nic and Olandria sent home, they would have never done this twist, we gotta thank the Nicolandria shippers.”
Someone else made the valid point that this wouldn’t be the first time Love Island USA has served a cinematic twist.
They tweeted: “Ya’ll are definitely not Love Island veterans. They’ve done this on other seasons! Most likely they will be sent to a hideaway for the rest of Casa and will be able to see what they’re couples are doing in the other villa. meaning hopefully Olandria will see what Taylor is doing…”
Throwing it back to season five, and Carsten ‘Bergie’ Bergersen was the first Islander eliminated. But, he was shortly brought back onto the show with two new bombshells. In the end, Bergie finished season five in third place, and he’s still with his partner, Taylor Smith, now.
