Here's Who Coupled Up on the First Night of Love Island USA Season 7

Things are bound to get interesting after two new bombshells already made their way into the villa. 

By Kaitlin Kimont

As Love Island USA Season 7 kicked off with quite a plot twist, two new bombshells, and more than a few steamy kisses, the OG Islanders have officially coupled up. 

After some quick introductions over champagne, Host Ariana Madix revealed that the first coupling up ceremony would go down a bit differently this time around.

"Islanders, it's time to get you coupled up," the Bravo alum announced during the June 3 episode. "Girls, one by one, you're about to choose a boy that you want to couple up with. When it's your turn to choose, you get to pick two boys to share a hot, steamy make out with."

Once the ladies kissed two guys of their choosing, they then were instructed to choose one as their partner — for now, that is. "But just because you couple up with a boy doesn't mean you get to keep him for good," Madix continued. "Because the next girl might want to kiss him, too. And she also might decide to steal him away from you."
