It’s so sad to hear that Olandria and Nic from ‘Love Island USA,’ who I was really rooting for, have broken up! It’s been about a year since we all fell in love with them on the show, and it just feels disappointing that their relationship didn’t last.
On Wednesday, reports surfaced – based on a source who wished to remain anonymous – that reality TV couple nicknamed “Nicolandria” have decided to break up. According to the report, they split amicably because the distance between them and their demanding schedules made it hard to stay close. Despite the breakup, the pair, who starred in Season 7 of “Love Island USA”, are still friends and plan to continue supporting each other.
Neither of the stars have publicly addressed their separation on social media.
Olandria and Vansteenberghe joined the cast of “Love Island USA” in Fiji in June 2025, and became a couple a few weeks later. “Love Island USA,” which is based on the popular U.K. show, can be streamed on Peacock and features singles looking for love. Olandria and Vansteenberghe were two of the original contestants who made it to the final episode.
