Love Island USA Season 6 Episode 12 Recap: Shocking Eliminations and Emotional Goodbyes

Love Island USA fans were left shocked and devastated after Sunday night’s episode revealed the results of the public vote. In Season 6, Episode 12, Ariana Madix returned to the show to announce the bottom three couples at risk of being dumped from the island.

The vulnerable islanders, Nicole Jacky & Kendall Washington, Andrea Carmona & Rob Rausch, and JaNa Craig & Hakeem White, stood before Madix as she revealed that the safe islanders would have to decide who would be leaving the show. The boys would choose which boy to dump, while the girls would do the same for the girls.

In a surprising turn of events, the boys unanimously decided to dump Hakeem White, despite his perceived strong connections. On the girls’ side, Andrea Carmona was chosen to be dumped, leaving everyone in shock, especially since she had been in a seemingly strong couple with Rob Rausch.

Rausch, unable to bear the thought of being separated from Carmona, chose to self-evict from the villa to follow her. The emotional scene left viewers and fellow islanders in tears, with Rausch expressing his disbelief and disappointment in the girls’ decision.

The fallout from the dumping will be shown in the next episode of Love Island USA, airing on Monday, June 24, at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on Peacock. Fans can expect more drama and emotional moments as the remaining islanders deal with the consequences of the public vote.
