Daia’s Casa Amor Spotlight
Daia entered the villa on Day 17 as a Casa Amor bombshell (Love Island USA Casa Amor standout), stepping in with 49.1K Instagram followers (@daiamcghee) and a suitcase full of dreams. A self-made entrepreneur, she founded StudioLarie, a production company, and The DL Productions, a creative agency—both crafting stunning photos and videos for beauty, travel, fashion, and health brands (travel blogger extraordinaire!). She’s lived everywhere—Bali’s beaches, London’s buzz, France’s charm—and her global perspective shone bright. “I’m here for real connections,” she hinted, and I was rooting for her to snap that perfect love shot.
She paired up with Kordell Beckham in Casa Amor, and their chemistry clicked—enough for him to bring her back to the villa on Day 20. But by Day 24, Kordell’s heart swung back to Serena Page, and Daia was dumped. Drama flared when whispers surfaced about her allegedly commenting on Kordell’s NFL brother Odell Beckham Jr.’s Instagram pre-villa. Daia stood firm, denying it—more on that in a sec Her seven-day stint was short but packed with picture-perfect moments—and a reminder that love’s lens can blur fast (Kordell Beckham twist included).
Post-Villa Clarity and Career
After her exit, Daia opened up to Today, tackling that Odell rumor head-on. “I didn’t know what comment they meant—I don’t have social media in there!” she explained. She clarified it was a misunderstanding—her only connection was a photo from an ex’s dinner with Odell, not a flirty move. “It caused drama, sure, but it’s fake,” she said, and I admire her calm amidst the storm. Back splitting time between LA and Sydney, she’s refocused on her craft—photography, blogging, modeling—building StudioLarie and The DL Productions into go-to creative hubs.
Daia’s a natural for fashion, beauty, photography, or travel brands—her worldly flair and eye for detail scream partnership gold. She’s why Love Island Star matters—showing how passion fuels resilience, even when love fades (Casa Amor lessons learned). Follow her Insta for stunning shots! So, fam, what’s your view?
