Olandria Spills on the Villa, Going Viral & Why She Almost Said No to 'Love Island' | Blind Date

From stepping into the villa to becoming part of one of 'Love Island's' most adored couples, Olandria has captured hearts every step of the way. She joins Cosmopolitan's "Blind Date" with Editor-in-Chief Willa Bennett to reflect on her 'Love Island' journey from nervously telling her mom and workplace she was going on the show, to coming out of the villa and watching her relationship go completely viral. Cosmo's cover star opens up about what was really going through her head during her time in the villa and gets candid about life with Nic—his most chaotic moments, who's messier between the two, and what it's truly been like adapting to their relationship being so publicly adored. She also shares her advice for anyone thinking about applying for 'Love Island' and dishes on the Hollywood stars she's met along the way. Warm, hilarious, and refreshingly real—you'll wish this date never ended.
