'Love Island USA': Internet calls out boys' club in the villa resulting in group elimination of Hakeem White
MAMANUCA ISLANDS, FIJI: On June 23, fans were blessed with dual eliminations, and one of them didn't shock fans as much as one would expect them to be. The Sunday episode saw Hakeem White get voted out 'Love Island USA' by his boys, who the fans claim "didn't like" the former Peacock star much to begin with.
In episode 12 of 'Love Island USA' Season 6, Ariana Madix, after naming the couples who were safe solely on the fans' vote, the 'Vanderpump Rules' star announced how voting would work. The boys who were safe from elimination needed to vote out one who wasn't.
On the chopping block were Robert 'Rob' Rausch, Kendall Washington, and Hakeem. After much deliberation, the boys found there was not a strong enough connection for Hakeem in the villa, which led to his elimination.
On Reddit, fan theories suggest, "This is giving that the producers wanted Hakeem out but Jana in and they found the only way to make it happen." While another chimed in, "They obviously chose Hakeem since he wasn’t an OG boy."
Seeing the cold reaction to Hakeem's elimination one user wrote, "Everyone fighting about the ladies’ decision while Hakeem is just like_____________." A fourth user added, "The boys had it easy choosing Hakeem who nobody likes."
One Redditor also noted, "Haha, not one person sad Hakeem is leaving." Another person commented, "since hakeem was the lastest addition to the guys compared to the ogs, he was the obvious choice."
Who is still in the villa on 'Love Island USA' Season 6?
After a double blow, 'Love Islanders' were left with five couples, and two singles. Connor Newsum and Leah Kateb; Serena Page and Kordell Beckham; Miguel Harichi and Olivia "Liv" Walker; Kaylor Martin and Aaron Evans, and Kendall and Nicole Jacky are the couples who continue to explore their relationship in the villa.
The women saved JaNa Craig, eliminating Andrea Carmona in the process. This left Rob single and heartbroken.
