Winning Love Island USA comes with a reward of more than just romance. Finding love is great and all, but the show offers one other prize for winners: money — and a lot of it. After weeks of building their connection in the villa, Bryan Arenales and Amaya Espinal walked away with the hefty cash prize and the title of fan-favorite couple. But even after being crowned the winners of season 7, they had one final decision to make. Only one of them would receive the full prize before choosing whether to keep it or split it. So, did Amaya and Bryan actually split the money?

How Much Do Love Island USA Contestants Make?
It’s actually unclear how much money Love Island USA contestants make per week, but we have an idea of how the paychecks are on Love Island UK. Former star Demi Jones previously spilled how much money she received weekly in a since-deleted TikTok.
“I personally got paid £250 a week,” Demi said, according to multiple outlets. “This is obviously to cover all your bills at home because you could have a flat, you could have a car to pay, all the things like that. So, obviously Love Island [wants] to make sure that’s all covered for you so you don’t get into any financial difficulties while you’re like away on holiday.”
