Love Island USA Season 7 fan-favorite Huda Mustafa is making headlines again, this time off the island. The single mom and third-place finisher has been spotted multiple times with Too Hot to Handle alum Louis Russell, fueling speculation about their relationship. The pair were first seen holding hands at The Grove shopping center in Los Angeles, followed by a red carpet appearance at the July 31 premiere of Weapons, where they posed together like a power couple.
Although neither Huda nor Louis has confirmed the relationship, their public chemistry speaks volumes. Their recent outings, including stylish, coordinated looks and hand-holding in front of paparazzi, have sparked intense speculation across the Love Island USA and Too Hot to Handle fandoms. For many, the pairing is a dream crossover in the reality TV dating universe.
Huda Mustafa rose to fame on Love Island USA Season 7 for her emotional depth and passionate relationship with Chris Seeley, which sadly ended during the finale. She’s also known as a devoted mother to her five-year-old daughter, a narrative that endeared her to many viewers.
Louis Russell, who made waves on Too Hot to Handle Seasons 5 and 6 and Battle Camp, is currently appearing on Netflix’s Perfect Match. Despite his reputation as a flirty competitor, Louis seems to be forming a deeper bond with Huda away from the cameras.
Some subtle cast drama has emerged following the buzz. Fans noticed Miguel Harichi, a fellow Love Island USA contestant, unfollowed Louis on social media. However, Miguel addressed the situation, saying his decision had nothing to do with the dating rumors and that he wishes them well while prioritizing his mental health and privacy.
With the Love Island USA Season 7 reunion approaching and Louis still active on Perfect Match, fans are eager to see how this love story plays out. Is this the beginning of something real, or just another short-lived spark in the world of reality dating shows?
Either way, Huda and Louis are keeping the Love Island USA gossip mill spinning, with a crossover romance that nobody saw coming, but everyone is watching.
