SUVA, FIJI: Reality TV personality Megan Barton-Hanson has exited 'Love Island Games' on Peacock due to medical reasons, creating a noticeable void in Sunday, November 12 night's episode of the global spin-off series.

The announcement of Megan's departure came from the show's narrator, Ian Stirling, who briefly commented on her absence.

Despite the disclosure, Megan has not yet addressed the circumstances surrounding her exit in the latest episode, and the show has not clarified whether she will be permitted to rejoin the villa.

The unexpected departure of Megan has left viewers both puzzled and disappointed.

A viewer wrote, "So Megan just randomly left the show?? Okay then." Another Twitter user added, "Just a casual and quick “Megan’s had to leave the villa for medical reasons” I’m sorry? That’s IT?" Another critic said, "Megan is gone because of what?? That’s some bulls**t."



 



 



 

Another person noted, "I’m so disappointed, megan was the most dramatic bombshell by far and she just left the show because she’s sick??? 😭" Another internet user wrote, "Megan just up & left??"



 



 

Another social media user stated, "Wait after all that drama Megan just left the villa?!? we don’t even get to see the fall out?!?"

'Love Island' producers did not address exactly the medical reasons that forced Megan Barton Hanson to leave the villa. However, Kyra Green, whom Megan shared a steamy kiss with, admitted that Megan's sickness put a strain on their connection.

Kyra shared, "I'm okay. It's definitely upsetting... just obviously on different pages and I haven't been able to get on the same page because she's been sick and out of here."

However, after becoming the Peacock spinoff show's first same-sex coupling, Kyra had trouble processing Megan's unexpected exit. Kyra admitted, "I feel like I'm in shock. I thought she was going to walk in tonight and be like whatever..."

'Love Island UK' star Megan Barton Hanson previously shared her health struggles with Pelvic Inflammatory Disease on her social media. The reality star wrote on Instagram, "I'd never heard of it but think I may have had my first experience."

Megan added, "I've not had pain/fever quite like it the last 5 days have been hell... If you have good Essex/London-based gynaecologist recommendations please let me know or any tips or remedies for the pain and to stop it from reoccurring."

However, according to Mayo Clinic, Pelvic Inflammatory occurs when there is an infection in the female reproductive system. The health complications could cause pelvic discomfort, bleeding, pain during sex, and more.

However, it wasn't officially revealed that Megan's Pelvic Inflammatory caused her to leave, but 'Love Island Games' was notably filmed in September.

'Love Island Games' airs six days a week from Sunday to Friday at 9 PM ET on Peacock.
