“I’m eating this UP” — Love Island USA fans react to Olandria and Nic making a comeback as Nickolandria

Olandria and Nic pulled off the season's biggest comeback in a stunning turn of events on Love Island USA. Following their elimination during Casa Amor, the two unexpectedly returned to the original villa as a couple, leaving fans in disbelief and creating a lot of excitement over the newly formed ship "Nickolandria."

What transpired after their dramatic departure was made clear in tonight's episode (June 26): both were offered the chance to come back, but only together. They stunned the other guests in the villa by reentering the group as a cohesive pair and choosing togetherness over separation. The remaining Islanders woke up to a startling reshuffling after the shift changed the dynamics and increased the stakes.

On social media, fans are questioning the production's move: was it a calculated stunt or a clever twist? While some praise the romantic tension and suspense, others wonder if it's that real. Excitement and cynicism were the two main feelings expressed on social media.

An admirer of Love Island USA posted: "No cause Nicolandria might actually be end game… I’m eating this UP 😭 #LoveIslandUSA"

Another fan shared, "Also, so sorry to my swirlers, but I’m really not buying Nic & Olandria I feel like if the producers didn’t force them to be in a couple i doubt he would be doing any of this right now! Like he’s not blind I’m sure he wants to kiss/fuck but I’m not buying it #LoveIslandUSA"

"I am not buying this nic and Olandria story. Nic is just a horn dog and its wraps for Olandria once cierra comes back #LoveIslandUSA," a tweet read.

Other fans of Love Island USA, however, shared their excitement for the new couple.

A viewer wrote: "I’m still stuck on that Nic/Olandria soul ties kiss like just give them the 100k already #LoveIslandUSA"

A netizen expressed on X: "Nic and olandria are very cute and I love but it was a crack ship and I thought it was just gonna be fun to end it on that note #LoveIslandUSA"

"Nic and Olandria’s date is so cute and romantic 😭 I’m on the right side of history! #LoveIslandUSA," an X user commented.

Nic and Olandria return to the Love Island USA villa as a couple

Olandria and Nic startled the villa and fans with their dramatic reunion as a couple in Love Island USA Season 7 Episode 21. Islanders were presented with a startling option following their departure during Casa Amor: they could remain separate and depart or reunite. Clearly choosing togetherness above separation, Olandria and Nic answered the phone and slid back inside the villa hand in hand.

Their return changed the course of the game, not just rekindling old passions. Returning as a pair upsets expectations and puts current relationships to the test. No plot on Love Island USA is ever simple, as seen by the producers' abrupt turn from near-elimination to making them power players.

Now that "Nickolandria" is back in action, the rest of the villa must deal with new tension and shifting loyalties. Their reunion offers romance and strategy as all eyes are on this recently reunited team.
