Marco Donatelli got called out by fans for adding fuel to a feud against Carsten Bergersen that he did not need to be involved in

PACIFIC HARBOUR, FIJI: 'Love Island USA' Season 5 viewers witnessed another dramatic feud as Victor Gonzalez and Carsten 'Bergie' Bergersen fought over Carmen Kocourek. Although Bergie mostly opted to keep out of the heated-up argument, Marco Donatelli teamed up with Victor and fueled up the feud.

Carmen had previously coupled with 28-year-old Victor previously, but the two quickly showed that they weren't as compatible as they initially thought. At the same time, Carmen has developed a strong connection with Bergie. He was voted out on the first day after struggling to fit in, but he returned to the villa in a twist, and then he first met Carmen.
