It’s not quite paradise in the Love Island USA villa right now.
After tensions finally came to a head between Chelley Bissainthe, Huda Mustafa, and Olandria Carthen during the “Stand on Business” challenge, the latter pair will air out their grievances in the upcoming July 3 episode.
Olandria asked Huda—who is coupled up with Casa Amor bombshell Chris Seeley—during the sneak peek, “If you’re gonna take girl code seriously and sisterhood seriously, why are you moving like that with Chris?”
The fitness coach reiterated her reply from the previous episode, firing back, “I deserve to explore a connection, too.”
It alsoseems that Huda also confronted Olandria—who is currently single after Taylor Williams coupled up with Clarke Carraway—for telling the islanders that Huda and Chris had kissed, which was told in confidence. She said in a tearful admission, “That s–t hurt, Olandria.”
The 24-year-old, previously partnered with now-dumped contestant Jeremiah Brown, admitted in a confessional, “I feel like they’ve all stabbed me in the back.”
Huda and Chelley’s friendship was navigating rough waters after the former raised Ace Greene’s heart rate the most during the striptease challenge, despite him being coupled up with Chelley. However, tensions escalated further when Huda explored her connection with Chris, who was also previously pursuing Chelley.
“This is Love Island and we are exploring multiple connections,” Huda said as she stood at the podium during the July 1 episode. “Nobody owns anybody, especially if you are open.”
Chris also confirmed that she had encouraged him to continue pursuing Chelley as they got to know each other. When it came to her past actions, Huda acknowledged her destructive connection with Jeremiah, but emphasized how much she’s changed since being given a second chance to remain in Fiji.
“I feel like I’ve grown a lot in here,” she said. “Yes, I’ve continued to make mistakes, but I feel like that’s life. Then, Casa Amor happened, and I think that I truly did that to the fullest.”
As we await to see what happens in the villa tonight, at 9 p.m. on Peacock, keep reading to see all the islanders vying for love.
