MAMANUCA ISLANDS, FIJI: 'Love Island USA' Season 6 bombshell Nigel Okafor was recently eliminated from the Fiji villa after receiving the least support from the islanders. Viewers of the Peacock show felt bad for Nigel, as he didn't get much chance to explore a romance with his connection, Liv Walker.

Nigel and Liv struggled to be together after the recoupling and had a few arguments. However, Nigel's ex-girlfriend took to Reddit and exposed his disrespectful drunk texts to her. She shared screenshots of the messages he sent her just before flying to Fiji.

Nigel's text to his ex read, "Consider this tough love, but lose some weight, take more showers, lay off the vape, wash your vagina, clean after yourself, learn some financial discipline, and don't let a 9-year-old boy dictate how you live your life." The text continued, "It's pathetic. If you're so adamant on how a man treats you, you should probably start with working on how you treat yourself."

However, social media users took to the comment section to slam Nigel. On Reddit, one user commented, "This is wilddddd!!!! He looks like the type of asshat that would say this." Another person added, "I got bad vibes from him and the way he spoke to Liv. This definitely tracks."

One user wrote, "Wooow not only to message you that, but then the completely transparent quick text so that hopefully you don't blow his cover now he's going to be on TV. Actually disgusting sorry you had to deal with this turd." Another viewer penned, "That first message…it should have been him with nobody standing behind him, not Cassidy!"

One critic said, "Honestly this is so sad. Who tf speaks to women this way and thinks in their head "oh that's helpful." Disgusting. Aaaand I'm all for calling out bad behavior. Good. These people go on this show to get clout. People like this don't deserve it in the slightest. I'm sorry you were treated so horribly, OP!"

'Love Island USA' alum Nigel Okafor claims of cheating on his ex-girlfriend

After 'Love Island USA' alum Nigel Okafor sent the disrespectful texts, he instantly realized his mistakes and tried to apologize to her. He texted, "I've made a lot of mistakes in my life that have cost me a lot of time, and a lot of money, but more importantly, they've cost me people, especially some who I held most dear to my heart."

Nigel further noted, "You were one of those people to me, and I will always appreciate the time we spent together, good or bad. I was a real piece of s**t to you." He admitted, "I two timed you, I stonewalled, gaslit, and raised my voice at you when I didn't get my way, I treated you in such a disposable manner, and I said a myriad of things to you that didn't need to be said."

Peacock show alum noted, "I'm far from perfect, and I've made that painfully obvious to you, but regardless of how things ended with us, you opened my eyes to how beautiful a relationship can be, and for that, I will be forever grateful."

Is Nigel Okafor's ex-girlfriend a single mom?

'Love Island USA' Season 6 alum Nigel Okafor's ex-girlfriend, who is a school teacher, responded in the comments after exposing Nigel to clarify his reference to the '9-year-old boy'. Reddit users had suggested the boy was her son.

Nigel's ex clarified, "Just for context, the 9 yr old boy he is referring to was a 3rd grade student of mine who was struggling emotionally and acting out in class." She added, "Don’t know why I confided in him about work I think I was just feeling down at the time and in need of an ear."
