Cierra Ortega Sets The Record Straight In New 4-Part Series
During a recent Q&A on TikTok, Cierra sat down to answer the questions that have been circulating across the internet. She opened up about her time in the villa, her feelings on Nicolandria dating, the circumstances surrounding her departure, whether shed attend the reunion, and more.
When talking about watching her villa friend Olandria and her ex villa boo Nic get together, Cierra admitted her feelings about it shift daily. She shared that shes still mourning the relationship and trying to process everything, especially since both Nic and Olandria once told her they felt no chemistry between them.
Like, I just wanted to move forward with my friendship with Olandria and with my relationship with Nic, and I wanted to believe that that kiss was nothing. And when I came out of the villa mind you, I come out thinking that Nic and I are in this amazing place, and, you know, were closed off, and we have these strong feelings for each other. I already knew that the situation I was stepping into in my reality, with what I was dealing with, with my misuse of words, I already knew that was going to deter anything that could involve us, she said. But coming out to see that the whole internet football franchises, his family was rooting for them to be together the entire time that him and I were together? Like, yeah, that hurt. And even when I first saw it, it didnt click to me. Like, I still wanted to believe, okay, but, you know, these people dont really know what it was like in there.
As the clip rolls, Cierra starts to get emotional, expressing that while she truly wants to be happy for Nicolandria, it still hurts, particularly because neither of them has reached out to her since leaving the villa. Sadly, she added that she may never get that closure, and has also decided not to attend the reunion. Still, Cierra says shes just happy to finally share her experience and move forward from this chapter of her journey.

Thanks, I booked a flight to Mykonos after surviving the villain edit on reality TV and not ending up with the guy who never actually liked me and wanted my friend the entire time.
