Love Island USA’s Amaya Jokes Villa’s Sex Code Word ‘Traumatizes’ Her

Love Island USA’s Amaya “Papaya” Espinal made some surprising confessions about sex in the villa, the Islanders’ code words and more.

Amaya was asked some intimate questions about filming season 7 during the Wednesday, July 17, episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast — starting with her time in The Hideaway with fellow winner Bryan Arenales.

“It was steamy, all right. We were hot and we were sweating. It really was a great feeling to just have that private and intimate moment,” she gushed. “We actually do want to talk to each other and we love being next to each other. The next morning, we were just sitting and we were just quiet. It was beautiful and silent.
I really did feel like I found my best friend where I could yap away or have a quieter moment.”

When asked whether Bryan really did “eat that kitty in The Hideaway,” Amaya coyly replied, “Well he definitely took that advice. We had a great night.”

Love Island USA viewers had a front row seat to the sexcapades that took place this year in Fiji. While past seasons featured some couples finding ways to share an intimate moment or two, it felt like season 7 set some kind of record with the amount of sexual “journeys” taking place in the communal bedroom.

“We did have a code word [for sex which was] ‘journey’ and it kind of traumatizes me now. When somebody outside is like, ‘Oh, a journey?’ 
I’m like, ‘How dare you!’ I am clutching my pearls,” Amaya joked. “People were having journeys.”

Since there wasn’t room for much privacy, Amaya confirmed that it did get awkward at night, adding, ”I’m like, ‘Can I sleep?’ We already don’t get enough sleep around here and then you hear [sexual noises]. The earplugs [we got] were not plugging? Those were low quality earplugs because we were still able to hear things. Especially if there’s a couple right next to you.”

Amaya’s tell-all on Tuesday wasn’t just limited to Love Island USA sex confessions. America’s Sweetheart didn’t shy away from sharing some wild stories from her personal life before the villa — starting with the craziest place she hooked up with someone.

“A CVS pharmacy — in the bathroom and not in the public. We made sure that we didn’t touch anything.
 I touched the wall because I needed to stabilize myself but we made sure that it was clean,” she noted. “I needed to buy some candy and then we had one smooch and he was like, ‘Do you want to go to the bathroom?’ It was exciting.”

As for the strangest request Amaya received in the bedroom?

“To suck on their toes. I went to Miami two years ago, and I was on a jet ski with someone and I looked down and he had the longest pinky toe nail ever. I got scared. I was like, ‘I don’t know if he used that as a weapon.’
It was long and strong. Ever since then, I kind of have a little fear.”

Amaya also recounted a story about a sexual encounter gone awry after the guy farted. And, while choosing her favorite sex positions, Amaya showed support for doggy style and missionary because “eye contact” is important. But she wouldn’t mind killing off cowgirl, adding, “Baby, my knees are tired, OK?
I don’t have the best joints. This is why I do yoga and I stretch it out — but we’re trying to improve.”
