MAMANUCA, FIJI: In the latest twist on 'Love Island USA', JaNa Craig has been stirring up drama by encouraging her best friend Leah Kateb to rekindle her past flame with Rob Rausch, despite Leah's current connection with Miguel Harichi. JaNa's urging stems from Leah's history of romantic interest in Rob, dating back to when she previously left Connor Newsum to pursue a relationship with Rob.

Now that Rob is single again, following his recent split with Daniela Rivera after Kassy Castillo snatched him from bombshell, JaNa saw an opportunity for Leah to revisit her feelings for him.

This plan of JaNa has put Miguel in a precarious position, as Leah might consider her options to get back with Rob, like she always has. If Leah reconnects with Rob, Miguel might get dumped.

During their emotional reconciliation, Leah expressed her deep care for Rob, admitting that she still considers him special and likes him a lot, even to an embarrassing extent. She tearfully confessed that seeing Rob move on with Andrea Carmona so quickly was painful for her, revealing that she regretted her actions and hoped for forgiveness despite her doubts about how Rob would react. "I cared about you so much, I still do, I think you're very special, and I liked you so much," Leah said.
