Isaiah and Lucinda will split the show’s $250,000 prize.
Meet the Love Island Games Season 2 winners!
After weeks of tough competition, Isaiah Campbell and Lucinda Strafford were crowned the winners during the October 5 season finale of the Peacock reality series. They beat out Justine Ndiba and Tyrique Hyde, Sydney Paight and Toby Aromolaran, and Johnny Middlebrooks and Gabby Allen to win the $250,000 prize. Isaiah and Lucinda agreed to split their winnings, with each going home with $125,000.
Isaiah calls his ‘Love Island Games’ journey ‘pitch perfect’
Lucinda was stunned by her victory.
“Absolutely not,” Lucinda told host Ariana Madix when asked if she ever thought she’d beat out the rest of the competition. “Honesty, I told my mum, ‘I’m probably gonna get my phone back in a few days,’ so the fact that now we’ve won… I can’t wait to tell my mum!”
Isaiah said he didn’t go into Love Island Games expecting to win it all.
“I don’t think you need to come in ever expecting anything, to be honest. I’m never greedy. I’m always humble,” he said. “So I think just coming in to have fun and obviously trying to find a connection was my way to go. And my journey in here was pitch perfect … I’m most blessed.”
While Isaiah’s Love Island Games victory was sweet, it was also hard-earned.
“No way y’all, God’s plan,” he wrote in a post on his Instagram Story after the finale aired. “Appreciate all the support and love. Toughest sh*t I’ve done to date.”
As Isaiah celebrates his victory, he’s keeping quiet about the current status of his relationship with Lucinda. It’s not clear if the the Love Island USA Season 4 alum, who lives in Florida, is still with Lucinda, who appeared in season 7 of the original Love Island and lives in Brighton, England.
Love Island Games Season 2 is streaming on Peacock.
