This article contains spoilers from the season 6 finale of Love Island USA.
America has voted — and Love Island USAhas named its Season 6 winners!
After nearly six weeks of dating, relating, swapping partners and closing off, was it JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez, Nicole Jacky and Kendall Washington, Leah Kateb and Miguel Harichi or Serena Page and Kordell Beckham?
On Sunday, July 21, host Ariana Madix revealed that Serena and Kordell had been named the winners and will split the $100,000 prize.
Nicole and Kendall placed fourth, followed by JaNa and Kenny in third. Leah and Miguel, the pair of finalists who was coupled up the shortest amount of time, were the runner-ups.
As fireworks exploded overhead, even Madix was emotional about the season's outcome.
Serena and Kordell, who is the younger brother of football player Odell Beckham Jr., first caught each other's eyes on day 1 in the villa, when they coincidentally wore matching lime green ensembles.

Understandably, Serena was livid, especially since she slept outside and remained loyal to Kordell during their time apart. But Kordell quickly realized he only had eyes for Serena and began to fight to win her back.
Clearly, it worked.
On their final date, the duo were given the opportunity to watch highlights of their journey, which ended with the note, "Not the end, the beginning..."
And in a beautiful full-circle moment, Serena and Kordell wore matching outfits for the finale — pink this time — just like they did for the premiere.
This season has marked some of the highest ratings yet for Love Island USA since it switched to Peacock after its first few seasons, becoming one of the most-streamed shows of the summer over these past few months.
During the finale, Madix also revealed she'll be hosting a reunion special, airing on Aug. 19 at 9 p.m. ET on Peacock. The big winners, fan-favorite couples and bombshells will be coming together to rehash their summer in Fiji.
