So the latest season of Love Island USA has been pretty wild. In more ways than one. And apparently there is a code word for the more intimate moments. And Cierra Ortega used that code word to talk about her sex life with Nic Vansteenberghe. Did you catch that?
In case you missed it, Season 7 of Love Island has seen some of the wildest behavior ever. More than one couple have had sex in the villa and they’ve even talked about it on national TV. Wonder how that went over with their families? Perhaps that’s why they decided to use a code word for intimacy. Although is a code word still a code word if everyone knows what it means?
Cierra used a code word for “sex” talking about Nic on Love Island USA

Cierra used the code word on the latest episode when talking to Iris Kendall. The two were having a chat following the re-coupling post Casa Amor.
“Did you hear me taking my journey?” Cierra asked Iris who is currently paired with TJ Palma. “Well the journey was much longer this time than the first time.” And by longer she means 40 seconds instead of 30.
Cierra teased more about her encounter with Nic adding, “And we stopped for food on the way. Hotdogs and hamburgers were ordered. We both had a full course meal. Once we finished eating, we ended at a waterfall. It was beautiful.”
In case you missed it, “journey” is the code word for intimacy among the islanders. We learned this thanks to Hannah Fields. She was dumped earlier this season and recently revealed to US Weekly the sneaky way they talk about sex.
“We had a code name for intimacy,” Hannah shared. “We would say, ‘how was your journey? What was the journey like?’ Huda (Mustafa) started it when she said something like, ‘Oh, I had a journey. My journey went all the way.’”
Hannah had her own “journey” with Pepe Garcia. Which means that she, Cierra, and Huda have all taken a journey or two. In fact, the producers have been pretty overwhelmed by the cast they have asked them to tone down the “journeys” for the camera.
The other couples have yet to admit if they took any journeys ahead of the finale later this month.
Love Island USA is available to stream on Peacock, with new episodes airing every day except Wednesdays.
