This left Olandria and Nic vs. Amaya and Bryan. Madix then revealed that Nic and Olandra came in second place, which meant that Amaya and Bryan had officially won Love Island USA Season 7! However, there was still one last decision to make. Bryan was the one who had to choose whether he wanted to walk away with the $100,000 and leave Amaya with nothing, or split the money and continue his relationship with her. Bryan didn’t hesitate in wanting to share the cash prize with his girl.
