Love Island USA has drawn sharp criticism from viewers after two fan-favourite contestants were eliminated in the latest episode following public voting.
The Sunday episode of the Peacock show left many fans disappointed when two popular Islanders were dumped from the villa, The Sun reported.
Love Island USA sends home fan favorites Hannah and Jeremiah
As viewers across the United States voted for their favourite contestants, the least popular were placed at risk of elimination.
The results were somewhat expected, with Jeremiah Brown, Austin Shepard, and Pepe Garcia ranking as the least favourite among the boys, while Hannah Fields, Amaya Espinal, and Iris Kendall were at risk among the girls.
Many viewers were surprised to see that Huda Mustafa was not among the girls facing elimination, especially after multiple calls for her removal from the show last week due to her erratic behaviour.
However, the final decision rested with the remaining cast members.
Eventually, the group decided that Hannah and Jeremiah would be sent home.
Love Island USA fans accuse show of being ‘rigged’
Following Hannah and Jeremiah’s exit, many viewers expressed their dissatisfaction on social media, alleging that the public vote was manipulated.
“Production rigged this vote because no way that many people voted for Huda,” one person wrote.
Another commented, “The girls’ vote seemed rigged to me… no way Huda would have been safe.”
Some also claimed that technical issues with the voting app prevented them from casting their votes.
“I don’t even wanna watch anymore,” one user posted.
As the show reaches its halfway point, the contestants are now preparing for Casa Amor—Love Island USA’s iconic twist, where the Islanders are split into two separate villas.
