Love Island Season 7 Reunion Spurs Social Media Stir and Fan Watch Parties on August 26, 2025

Fans of Love Island USA continued riding the reunion wave on Tuesday, as social media buzzed with unexpected cast developments and watch parties kicked off in cities across North America.

Amaya Espinal and Bryan Arenales, the Season 7 champions, fueled breakup rumors early Tuesday when each unfollowed the other on Instagram just hours before the reunion special streamed on Peacock. Their abrupt social-media move came after the duo addressed cheating allegations during Monday night’s reunion, in which Bryan admitted to “a lapse in judgment” regarding rumors of infidelity.

In New York City, Love Island devotees gathered at Continental Sports Lounge in FiDi and Miss Lily’s in the East Village to view the reunion live on oversized screens, sip villa-themed cocktails, and debate the latest cast confrontations. Doors opened as early as 8 p.m. ET, with specially curated menus nodding to fan-favorite Islanders.

Meanwhile in Dallas, Rebel & Rose Neighborhood Bar hosted the official “LOVE ISLAND - THE REUNION” watch party Tuesday evening. From 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. CDT, reality-TV enthusiasts donned island-chic attire and enjoyed discounted Island Punch and Mango Margaritas while reliving the season’s most dramatic moments.

As the reunion reverberates through social feeds and living rooms alike, viewers are left pondering the real-life impact of villa romance-both on and off camera.
