POD FAM 💚 Today, we have actual reality TV royalty in the building.
She was born in the Congo, moved to the U.S. as a kid, and has been choosing joy and resilience ever since. You first met her on Love Island USA Season 2, where she went from overlooked to unforgettable and made history as part of the first Black couple to ever win the American franchise.
Then, because once just wasn’t enough, she came back on Love Island Games, won the entire thing, and officially became a two-time Love Island champion.
Off-screen, she’s a TV personality, content creator, and model, sharing fashion, fitness, beauty, and ‘soft girl entering her bad-ass era’ vibes with a massive online community as @JustineNdiba
