'Love Island USA' fans react as five cast members dumped in episode 27 following public vote results

Others felt the mass elimination was overdue, citing too many people in the villa.
During the selection, Taylor received support from Clarke, Pepe, Cierra, Nic, and Ace. Andreina was backed by Chelley, Amaya, and Huda. TJ had Zac and Iris behind him, Austin had Olandria, and Gracyn was supported by Elan. Chris and Bryan stood behind Jaden.
The five-way exit marks one of the season's biggest turning points. The next episode airs Friday, July 4, 2025, on Peacock.

Cierra Ortega takes loaded swipe at Nic Vansteenberghe after 'Love Island' exit amid racism scandal
Cierra Ortega, a former Love Island USA contestant, has responded to her exit from the show with a direct message from Greece. In a pointed Instagram post, the 25-year-old reflected on her journey and called out her former partner, Nic Vansteenberghe. Sharing a sun-drenched video from Mykonos, Ortega wrote, "Thanks, I booked a flight to Mykonos after surviving the villain edit on reality TV and I didn't end up with the guy who never actually liked me and wanted my friend the entire time." Ortega was removed from the villa mid-show after producers learned of her past use of a racial slur. She later addressed the controversy in a video, stating, "This is something that deserved punishment, and the punishment has absolutely been received." While she expressed remorse, she also asked viewers not to target her family, citing harassment and threats. Following her departure, Vansteenberghe quickly recoupled with Olandria Carthen and the two ultimately placed second in the finale. In a podcast appearance, he said, "She just left. It was some sort of personal reason or something along those lines." He added, "If whatever is happening in the outside world is something I don't align with, then that could be perceived as me supporting that." While Olandria has not commented, fans continue to debate the authenticity of the final pairings and the show's handling of accountability and redemption.
