The long-awaited ‘Love Island USA’ season 7 reunion is finally upon us … and the drama certainly didn\u2019t end when the cameras stopped rolling because beloved winners Amaya Espinal<\/strong><\/a> and Bryan Arenales<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>started us off with <\/strong>confronting cheating rumors circling online.<\/p>\n

The dynamic duo — who coupled up midway through the season — had remained relatively low-key after filming wrapped … until videos surfaced on social media of Bryan out at a club, raising questions about their relationship status.<\/p>\n

The speculation came to a head during the reunion, when host Andy Cohen<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>wasted no time diving into the online criticism … asking Bryan to walk us through what exactly went down that night — while Amaya is seen giggling and visibly nervous.<\/p>\n

Bryan denied any wrongdoing, claiming the public is just trying to throw any hate his way — and with the “cheating” video, he notes he was actually paid to be there … so this was him tapping into his prior bartending experience — but he admits he had a lapse of judgment when he decided to go around pouring shots.<\/p>\n

Cohen then turned the heat up a notch by directly questioning Bryan’s fellow Islander — Chris Seeley <\/strong>— who was reportedly with him the night this all went down.<\/p>\n

Chris kept it light and dismissive, saying he “didn\u2019t see s**t” — which got a laugh from the room — but when asked if he was there for Bryan after the rumors sparked, Chris confirmed that he shared wise words of advice to his island bro … saying he can\u2019t control what people say because they know the truth, so speculation doesn’t mean a thing.<\/p>\n

Amaya then addressed the situation head-on, making it clear that cheating was not part of their story … explaining that Bryan and her have kept their relationship private and focused, and have been working through things as a team — tunnel-visioned on their own journey.<\/p>\n

Bryan echoed her line in the sand, saying that their relationship has a solid foundation of comfortability and is continuing to grow.<\/p>\n

Last we saw them was out New York when Bryan shut down any speculation that he’d be interested in anyone else other than his Amaya Papaya.<\/p>\n

However, as we previously reported<\/strong><\/a>, the winning couple had unfollowed each other on Instagram nearly two weeks after this reunion was filmed — so it’s unclear if this solidarity still stand between the reality love birds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘Love Island USA’ Reunion Amaya & Bryan Confront Viral Cheating Scandal “We Know the Truth” Published August 25,…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":176123,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[104,171,14839,50,26767,173,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-176122","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-breaking-news","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-hip-hop","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-tmz-hip-hop","13":"tag-tv","14":"tag-united-states","15":"tag-unitedstates","16":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115093257936847381","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176122","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=176122"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176122\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/176123"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=176122"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=176122"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=176122"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
