It’s all going off on Love Island USA season seven. People are cracking on like there’s no tomorrow, Islanders are licking people’s toes, and some have folks petitioning to get them back on the show. When it comes to the Love Island USA villa dynamics, there’s one person we can truly trust, and that’s host Ariana Madix. She’s coming in hot with her take on who she believes should be together this summer – and it’s not who we were expecting!

Love Island USA’s Ariana Madix gave her take

If there’s one couple that’s got everyone talking about them in season seven it’s Nic and Olandria.

Speaking to ET this summer, Ariana was asked if she “buys that they’re not into each other.”

She said: “I want to say that I trust their own judgement when they both say that they’re not, but it’s giving that they are.”

Ariana admitted that “from day one and day two” she got vibes that they liked eachother.

She continued to add that Olandria said: “Come here, cream,” and that the two kissed in the blindfold challenge.

Ariana said she thought they “had a thing for each other, or at least he had a thing for her.”

When it came to Nicolandria’s “chemistry,” Ariana said she thought it was “palpable through the screen.”

But, the two have seemingly extinguished the flames of their fiery romance this summer.

Addressing how everyone is “leading with tongues” this season, Ariana admitted some episodes have been pretty heavy on the intimacy.

She said: “Maybe it’s a Gen-Z thing.”

The romance has been getting kind of out of control in season seven, even production has said so.

But when it comes to lasting love, Ariana has a wholesome take.

She said: “I was kind of enjoying Chelley and Chris flirting…”

“But, I feel like Chelley finds herself in these love triangles at every turn, and I don’t know if she’s a very decisive person… It seems like she is caught in limbo…” she added.

Ariana dished: “I would love for Chelley and Cierra to get together to be honest.”

She added how Cierra is someone she’d “want to be friends with,” adding: “She seems so cool and has the best style.”

The Love Island USA host added how she also “loves Amaya and Zac.”
