On June 21, 2025, Ariana Madix confirmed on Love Island USA: Aftersun that there will be “more twists and turns to Casa than ever before.”
She added: “They are going to start it very differently, getting the girls out, something they’ve never done before.
“I feel like I say a lot, like, ‘We’ve never done it before,’ but then it’s always something crazy we’ve never done before!”
Who is Chris Seeley?
Chris Seeley was born on April 11, 1998, in Corona, California.
He is the son of Cordell and Trea Seeley and comes from a large family.
Chris has a whopping nine siblings — Kiara, Tanasha, Tory, Maya, Cordell, Tevin, Keana, Courtney and Ciara.
Growing up in such a big family helped shape his grounded personality and strong sense of loyalty — traits already evident during his short stint so far on Love Island USA.
Sport has always played a central role in Chris’ life — he was a standout basketball player from an early age, attending Central High School, graduating in 2016.
During his senior year, Chris averaged 16 points and two rebounds per game, showcasing his skills as a forward.
He also played AAU basketball for Splash City, where he maintained impressive stats, averaging over 10 points and six rebounds the summer after he graduated high school.
Chris’s basketball career continued at the collegiate level, where he played for multiple programs including the University of Utah, Fresno State and Cal State Dominguez Hills.
After college, Chris took his talents overseas, playing professionally for Mulhouse Basket in France’s NM1 league and Rajawali Jakarta in the Indonesian Basketball League.

Gimme Amor
Chris entered the seventh season of Love Island USA during the Casa Amor twist on day 17 — a pivotal moment designed to test existing couples by introducing new singles.
On arrival, the gentle giant said: “I’m a professional basketball player. I’m 6’8, I got an eight pack, nice smile, nice face — what more can you ask for?”
Uniquely this season, the girls left the main villa to meet new male bombshells — including Chris — in the Casa.
He instantly sparked chemistry with Chelley Bissainthe.
This led to a memorable kiss that sent social media buzzing and put their budding connection immediately under the spotlight.
