Love Island USA stars miss a large part of the competition

Love Island USA stars miss a large part of the competition

The big picture

  • Love Island USA season 6 lacks romance, which is why the hideout cannot be used.
  • Casa Amor brings new singles, complicated relationships and hidden opportunities.
  • Kendall and Nicole emerge as the strongest couple, increasing their chances of winning.



The game of Love Island USA is a tricky business. Viewers want to see hot singles get together and start a relationship. But they also want to see the drama of love triangles and breakups. Season 6 has plenty of drama with men crying, screaming and hiding in the pool. Viewers don’t see as much romance and that’s why no one saw the hideout outside Casa Amor.

The islanders have to sleep in one bed with their partner. All the double beds are in the same room, which is awkward for couples who want to get to know each other better. So the hideout is a private room equipped with handcuffs, whips and more. This way, the cast’s actions prevented them from getting the hideout.

It’s Casa Amor and the cast is made up of singles instead of strong couples. Aaron Evans And Kaylor Martin are an original couple who have been thinking about confessing their love to each other for some time. Serena Page takes things slowly with Cordell Beckham, and they have grown closer over time. But these couples have not closed themselves off and are open to new people. That means they cannot hide.

“We actually have a hideaway in the main villa this season, there just hasn’t been the right opportunity to use it yet,” ITV Entertainment Executive producer, Simon Thomas told PEOPLE. “We usually save the Hideaway for when the couples really hit it off, but since it’s been such a rollercoaster ride for the Islanders so far, with a lot of partner swapping and all the drama that comes with it, the timing never felt right.”


The couples continue to fight their way through Casa Amor. Aaron flirts and kisses Daniela Ortiz-Rivera. Kordell does the same with Daia McGhee. Meanwhile, Serena and Kaylor have only kissed men during the games. The women also talk a lot about missing their men. They will be disappointed when they find out what Aaron and Kordell did and that will probably ruin their chances in the hideout. The new strongest couple is Kendall Washington And Nicole Jackyand will have the best chance of taking advantage of this opportunity. Love Island USA ends with the public voting for a couple to win $100,000. That couple moves Kendall and Nicole up the list of potential winners of season six.

Love Island USA Season 6 can be streamed on peacockThe season runs for six weeks and new episodes are released daily except Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET.
