Love Island USA throws you a curveball just when you think you have the dynamics of the villa figured out. Amaya selected Huda, of all people, to confide in and grieve about her complex situation with Ace in Episode 7, leaving viewers speechless and a little perplexed. Fans rushed to social media in shock, asking if they had somehow missed an episode in which the two were shown putting their differences aside.
Since Amaya and Huda weren't exactly allies to begin with, the action was unexpected. When Amaya kissed Jeremiah during the baseball game challenge, Huda became enraged and called Amaya a "b*tch" on national television. However, when Huda later expressed regret and acknowledged that she had overreacted to a game, things changed. Amaya pulled Huda away for a vulnerable time and sobbed on her shoulder over Ace shortly after, demonstrating that the apology left the door open for a reconciliation.
Fans responded quickly on social media, with many posing the question, "Did I miss an episode?" Mixed reactions were generated by the touching scene; some praised the girls for their maturation, while others were perplexed by the unexpected sisterhood. The drama has, in any case, officially arrived.
