Cierra Ortega has been a girl's girl since the day she bombshelled on Love Island USA season 7 villa in Fiji. The influencer has been the realest, honest, and true to herself, which fans have come to adore.

She had taken no time to clock Nic after the recoupling when she found out that he had kissed Belle-A, only a while before he had kissed her. The two sat down for a chat, and she confronted him like a total boss and demanded answers, but politely.

All the fans had seen Huda crash in the Love Island villa and have her moments. However, Cierra was always patient with her and did not lash out like some other islanders did. It was clear that she was annoyed too, but it did not come in the way of supporting her island friend when she was at her lowest.

But there was something that won over the fans completely. It was during the third re-coupling of the season, and here is what went down.


Why do fans admire Cierra Ortega on Love Island USA?

Cierra stood by her girl Huda even though many were afraid to do so. This was the second time that she had saved herself from getting eliminated while she was on the chopping block and on the verge of leaving Love Island USA and going home.

The re-coupling had all the ladies select their partners and then stand behind a closed door. The men will then stand in front of their door and try to unlock it. If the answers of both of them match, the door will open and the two will form a couple.

However, if it doesn't, both of them will be single and vulnerable and up for elimination.

By the end of this recoupling ceremony on Love Island USA, the two people who were single were Jalen and Huda. The remaining islanders had a choice to stand behind the person they supported and protect them from going home.

During this time, even though Cierra looked confused, she stood behind Huda and decided to give her another chance at finding love during the experience.

But this did not mean Cierra was ready to cast her blind supoort for Huda. Even in the vanity room while talking to other girls, she made sure to establish her opinion, saying that if Huda does one more crazy thing in the villa, Cierra will not be able to save her a third time.

Now, it was seen that Huda had pulled Jeremiah in for a chat once more, but this time, she was calm and collected. The next day, Cierra sat down to talk to her and gave Huda some tough love. She validated her feelings of being hurt over Jeremiah, but also advised her to have respect for herself and even her kid.

Fans particularly loved how Cierra was not afraid to admit that she almost did not stand behind Huda because of the behavior she has been exhibiting in the Love Island USA villa.

Fans appreciated her honesty and said that she has been the realest one since entering the villa, and even her connection with Nic seems to be genuine, and does not come with an ulterior motive, such as to win the show.
