Love Island USA has announced the winners of season six.
Last Friday, the final four couples were announced: JaNa Craig, 27, and Kenny Rodriguez, 24, Nicole Jacky, 26, and Kendall Washington, 27, Leah Kateb, 24, and Miguel Harichi, 27, and Serena Page, 24, and Kordell Beckham, 22.
And on Sunday, America voted for their favourite couple, with presenter Ariana Madix, 39, revealing who took home the $100,000 prize.
Slow-rising couple Serena and Kordell, the younger brother of football player and Kim Kardashian’s ex Odell Beckham Jr., were declared champions after nearly six weeks on the show.
Even though they were chosen as winners, there was one final test. They had to choose whether to split the money, or let one person get it all.

They each received an envelope, one with the cash prize and the other empty.
The person who wins the prize money can keep the money or share it with his or her partner. This is the final test to show whether he or she is really in it for love or for money.
Kordell eventually received the envelope containing the cash prize.
When faced with the choice of keeping or sharing the prize, he decided to share it with Serena.
“Serena and I have been through a lot,” Kordell said.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience than being in this villa with her. It’s just as well… I’m going to split that money.”
Leah and Miguel, who were paired the shortest, finished in second place, while JaNa and Kenny took third place.
Meanwhile, Nicole and Kendall finished in fourth place.

During their final date, the couple reviewed highlights from their trip, which ended with the comment, “Not the end, the beginning…”
Serena and Kordell were among the original 10 cast members.
The two overcame a number of obstacles in their search for love, with Serena initially only seeing Kordell as a friend.
However, their romance eventually blossomed. Just as they were getting close, things took a drastic turn when Kordell went to Casa Amor with the rest of the boys.
There, Kordell met his new partner, Daia McGhee, and decided to bring her back to the villa. He felt like their romance was developing faster than his relationship with Serena.
Serena was hurt when she decided to sleep outside and remain faithful to Kordell while they were apart.
Eventually, however, Kordell changed his mind and began fighting to win back her love.
