Love Island USA Season 7 drama spills off-screen as Huda Mustafa reportedly dropped from Call Her Daddy podcast for Amaya and Bryan
Love Island USA Season 7 may have ended with love and confetti, but the post-villa drama is proving just as intense. While winners Amaya and Bryan took home the $100,000 prize, and fan-favourite pairs like Nic and Olandrio left on high notes, all eyes have now turned to what's happening off-camera. The islanders are slowly returning to their regular lives, doing interviews, hopping on podcasts, and reflecting on their time inside the villa. But fans of Huda Mustafa were shocked to learn she may have been dropped last-minute from Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast. Huda reportedly dropped from Call Her Daddy in favour of winners Amaya and Bryan According to a viral TikTok posted by user @lynreality, Huda was originally scheduled for an exclusive interview with Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper. The TikToker claims an insider revealed that Alex had locked in Huda for her first sit-down, but once the finale aired and the winners were crowned, plans changed. Allegedly, Alex Cooper made a switch, trading Huda's exclusivity rights in favour of Amaya and Bryan, likely seeing more potential in having the winning couple on her show. The same TikTok also claims Huda's interview rights were passed to podcaster and former Bachelor star Nick Viall, who will now host her first official post-show interview instead. The last-minute nature of this alleged swap has sparked outrage from fans who feel Huda, despite not winning, deserved the platform more than anyone. i don't think there's anything that can be done about Huda going on Nick's podcast. It seems mandatory since she made it into the top 3what's shocking is call her daddy dropping huda for amaya? comment section said 'alex cooper continues making poor decisions'💀 #loveislandusa Fans say Alex Cooper made the 'wrong call' Many believe Huda brought real heart to the show and deserves a space to tell her side of the story. One fan commented, 'Why not interview both girls? Last year she interviewed Rob and Leah, so I don't see why she'd have to pick here ngl.' Others pointed out that Huda and Amaya are both the most followed contestants on social media, arguing that leaving Huda out is a missed opportunity. Another fan noted Alex's social post that showed a one-chair setup, insisting, 'If it was Amaya and Bryan, there would be two chairs. I'm almost guaranteeing that it's Huda.' Meanwhile, one user added, 'Huda is the show." Huda's time in the villa was far from ordinary From the moment she entered the villa, Huda stood out, not just for her style and confidence, but also for her openness. Her relationship with Chris was filled with ups and downs, and while they didn't make it as a couple, Huda made it to the finale as a solo contestant. That alone spoke volumes about her ability to connect with viewers and stay authentic. Whether you rooted for her or not, Huda's presence was a defining part of Season 7, and many feel she earned the right to speak her truth in her own words. As fans wait to see if the Call Her Daddy appearance happens at all, or if Nick Viall will confirm the reported switch, fans believe Huda will ultimately make the biggest of them all.
