Just weeks after the Love Island USA Season 6 finale, the cast reunited to discuss everything that went down in the villa. From the dumpings to Casa Amor, nothing was off the table in the reunion special. In the days leading up to the reunion’s release, rumors of drama started to run rampant.
In quite the role reversal, Ariana Madix is hosting the Love Island USA Season 6 reunion. Usually, she’s in the hot seat during the Vanderpump Rules reunions, but not this time. Ariana was in the driver’s seat and asked the cast all the tough questions.
On August 16, Peacock released a brief teaser of the Season 6 reunion special. “Your favorites are returning to spill it all,” Madix says.

What happened at the Love Island USA Season 6 reunion?
As the cast promoted the reunion special in New York City, speculation started going viral about alleged drama during taping. Leah and Serena were notably absent from the cast’s 92nd Street Y panel, which was filmed on August 16.
Leah shut down the rumors on TikTok. “No ‘blow up’ happened at the reunion. Yall make any n everything up. I’m exhausted mentally physically and spiritually from this entire experience. I’m tired. I told them I am DONE after reunion,” she wrote in response to a fan discussing the alleged drama. “That’s all they were getting from me. Respectfully. Everything else I just can’t and they don’t even deserve me. Period moving on.”
Following the online chatter, Peacock released a statement on social media about the cast. “Big love to everyone who joined us in Fiji this summer! The Season 6 reunion drops tonight on Peacock, and we’re buzzing to bring our Islanders back together. The reunion is full of drama, but remember — these are real people, so let’s keep it kind and positive. Let’s end the season with the same love and respect we started with!”

Who has been cut from the reunion?
One cast member who will not be a part of the reunion is Caine Bacon. The contestant revealed he did not attend the get-together, despite being in New York City (where the reunion was filmed) and hanging out with Aaron.
A fan asked Caine if the reunion had been canceled. According to Deadline, he responded, “It isn’t I mean I’ve been canceled from it lol.”
Peacock has not revealed why Caine was cut from the reunion, but there’s been controversy surrounding Caine’s recent social media post at an Asian restaurant. TikTok user soogia1 called out Caine for “openly and comfortably mock[ing] the name of the restaurant, mock[ing] the way that we eat, and record[ing] themselves saying offensive things and even using slurs.”

When Caine addressed the video, soogia1 called his response a “pathetic and predictable attempt at gaslighting.”
Who is still together from Love Island USA Season 6?
The couples from Season 6 who are still together include Serena and Kordell, JaNa and Kenny, Kendall and Nicole, and Miguel and Leah.
Kaylor and Aaron’s relationship status is unclear. They had ups and downs in the villa, but they left together after their elimination. In an August 11 TikTok video, Kaylor hinted that she is currently single. Days later, Kaylor was spotted addressing her relationship outside of the reunion taping. “Aaron and I are not okay,” Kaylor said. “We are done. We are not together.” However, fans are skeptical. We’ll find out Kaylor’s true feelings at the reunion!
