‘Love Island USA’ host Ariana Madix on if she watches ‘The Valley’
“Love Island USA” host Ariana Madix explains to USA TODAY’s Ralphie Aversa what it would take to get her back on Bravo reality TV show.
An explosive recoupling has left the “Love Island: USA” Season 7 villa in flames.
America’s vote to pair up the three latest bombshells with other coupled-up islanders has broken up strong connections and given a chance for new ones to potentially blossom.
By the end of Episode 12, fans watched one of the earlier bombshells pack their bags to go home. Throughout the season, USA TODAY will keep fans updated on all the bombshells entering the Fiji villa.
Here’s a recap of all the islanders who have entered the villa for “Love Island USA” Season 7, including those who debuted since last week’s update.

Which islander was dumped from the island?
Charlie, who was coupled up with Hannah, was dumped from the island on Episode 12 after his fellow islanders had to choose between him, Huda, and Taylor.
Before the vote, Charlie tried to plead his case, telling the other contestants that he and Hannah had reconciled after she decided to explore a connection with Pepe.
“I just want to say before you have to make the decision, I had the most amazing moment with Hannah,” he said. “It was just this crazy feeling I’ve never felt. Everything we went through these last two days, I feel like led to this moment where we literally looked each other in the eyes in a different way, rediscovered each other.”
However, the numbers were not on his side: Charlie: 3, Huda: 2, Taylor: 1.
