SPOILER ALERT: This post contains details of the Love Island USA Season 6 finale from Sunday, July 21.
Four couples remained on Love Island USA, but only one would be crowned the winner. Ahead of the finale, Kassandra “Kassy” Castillo, Robert “Rob” Rausch, Kaylor Martin, and Aaron Evans were dumped from the island.
The final four couples still in contention to win Season 6 were Serena Page & Kordell Beckham, Leah Katen & Miguel Harichi, JaNa Craig & Kenny Rodriguez, and Nicole Jacky & Kendall Washington.
“It’s been an unforgettable summer, filled with breakups, makeups, friendships, relationships, and most importantly, love,” host Ariana Madix said during the finale.

Madix finally revealed the results of America’s vote, and this is how the couples placed:
4th place: Nicole Jacky and Kendall Washington.
3rd place: JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez.
Before announcing the winner, Madix said, “We have followed every step of your relationships over the last six weeks. And now the waiting is finally over.”
2nd place: Leah Katen and Miguel Harichi.
1st place: Serena Page and Kordell Beckham.
After the winning couple was crowned, they had one last test. The couple were given two envelopes, one containing the $100,000 cash prize and the other containing nothing. The Islander with the cash prize can keep the money for themselves or share it with their partner.

Kordell gave Serena the honor of picking first, and when she opened it, she got the envelope with nothing. Kordell had the envelope with the cash prize and opted to split the money with Serena, each winning $50,000.
“Me and Serena have been through a whole lot,” Kordell said. “I couldn’t ask for a better experience than to be in this villa with her. It’s only right…. I’m going to split that dough.”
Before saying goodbye to the couples, Madix announced that Love Island USA Season 6 would have a reunion that would drop on Peacock on August 19.
Ahead of the finale, Madix made an appearance on Love Island USA Aftersun to share her thoughts on what was ahead.
“It’s bittersweet,” Madix said of Love Island USA ending.
However, the host said the final four was “perfect,” adding, “It is my final four. Like if I was looking at everybody coming up towards the finale… this is the right final four and that’s no shade to anyone else. This feels right.”
Madix noted that it “has been turbulent” for the couples but knows that “they’ll all be happy for each other no matter the outcome, and I feel like that’s so nice.”
