Love Island USA’s Nic Vansteenberghe Taking Break From Posting Olandria Carthen Content After ‘Pressure’

Love Island USA stars Nic Vansteenberghe and Olandria Carthen are still together, despite a downturn in their social media posting. The former Islanders recently became the target of breakup rumors after fans noticed them posting less content of each other on social media. Nic put the speculation to rest in a recent interview, revealing he felt “pressure” to post every moment he shared with Olandria. 

Here’s the scoop. 

The reality TV star has enjoyed switching off from social media

No fear, Nicolandria fans, your favorite Islanders remain an item. Nic spoke to US Weekly about the split rumors in an April 21 interview. He told the outlet that he no longer feels a need to feed the fanbase with relationship content. 

“I felt like, at first, I was pressured [to share]. We are filmed 24/7,” he shared. “Lately, I haven’t been posting anything. It’s actually so great, so sorry to not give you crumbs, Nicolandria Nation. But you know, mama and papa will be there for you.”

Nic and Olandria met on Season 7 of Love Island USA. Their connection was a slow burn, with both parties pursuing other connections for the majority of the season. However, fans at home felt they had an undiscovered connection, and we secretly hoped there was more than friendship between them. They paired up late in the season, but have been together ever since. 

Olandria shared a rare relationship update on the Golden Globes red carpet in January 2026. She said she believes that mutual support is the secret to a successful relationship. 

“We support each other there, we also support each other as far as his solo career,” she told the New York Post. “So I really feel like that’s why we’re so successful. We continue to prioritize our solo careers, as well as our relationship.”

Love Island USA is streaming on Peacock.
