MAMANUCA ISLANDS, FIJI: 'Love Island USA' Season 6 islander Rob Rausch has sparked drama by accusing his former connection Leah Kateb of plotting Andrea Carmona's elimination. However, drama persisted in the latest episode as islanders stood against Rob's actions.

Rob confronted Kendall Washington, accusing Leah of dishonesty and manipulation. This deeply angered Kendall, who shares a close friendship with Leah, especially as Rob attempted to sow discord among the islanders against her. During the stripping challenge, Kendall was tasked with selecting an islander whom he deemed untrustworthy, and he chose Rob.

Rob admitted to being 'pissed' about Kendall's suggestion and asked Kendall, "When did I lie to you?" Kendall responded that he sparked trust issues and elaborated in the confessional, "Only reason I did it was because the Leah and you situation is a little bit murky." However, Rob showed his anger in the confessional, "It's f*****g bulls**t, is what it is."

Kendall Washington apologized to Rob Rausch over untrustworthy dig

'Love Island USA' star Rob Rausch confronted Kendall Washington over his comment after the latter claimed, "We will beef about it." Rob asked why did he said something like that about him despite the truth that they were good friends. Kendall tried to defend himself and said, "I'm not saying you're untrustworthy at all. Like I don't think anyone's untrustworthy." He added, "It's like, I wish you didn't ask me any f******g questions about it."

Kendall claimed that he thought the untrustworthy comment could have hurt the other islanders the most, which is why he chose Rob, his best friend. However, Rob was not convinced by Kendall's explanation and claimed it was a dig at him. He also noted that Kendall was only considering Leah Kateb's feelings and not his own.
