Love Island USA’s explosive 6th season is getting the band back together for a reunion – and we’ve got some spoilers to share ahead of the game.
With a winning couple crowned amidst a ton of drama, most of the cast will be returning for the reunion special to talk about what went down.
And yes, we did mean to imply that certain people will NOT be amongst their cohorts.
So, what can we expect? Here’s what we can tell you:
Love Island USA Reunion Details: Premiere Date, Host, & How To Watch
The reality dating competition show on Peacock, hosted by “Vanderpump Rules” star Ariana Madix, will air the reunion special on the streamer on Monday, August 19th and 9pmEST.
It will not air live; that is to say, the reunion has already been filmed and will be hosted by Ariana, who seems to have found a cushy job with the show.
Almost all of the main cast from Season 6 will appear, including the season’s winning couple, Serena Page and Kordell Beckham.
Joining them will be Leah Kateb, Miguel Harichi, Kaylor Martin, Aaron Evans, JaNa Craig, Nicole Jacky, Kendall Washington, Rob Rausch, Kenny Rodriguez, Olivia Walker, and Andrea Carmona.
But wait, who is missing?
Why Caine Bacon Won’t Be On The ‘Love Island USA’ Season 6 Reunion On Peacock
Caine Bacon is not expected to be in attendance, despite being a much talked about player in Season 6.
Deadline reported that when responding to a fan on TikTok asking if the reunion was still happening, Caine commented, “I mean, I’ve been canceled from it lol.”
The reason he’s been canceled remains a bit of a mystery, though some on TikTok think they managed to figure out what happened.
As it turns out, Caine was in NYC when the reunion was being filmed. He even posted videos on TikTok with Love Island USA co-star Aaron Evans.
Another TikTok user by the name of Soogia explained what happened from there. Speaking over a since deleted post on his social media, she explains that Caine attended a Korean restaurant and celebrated with Aaron, toasting and saying, “Chin chin.”
Now, Caine is no stranger to being controversial, but this video clearly crossed a line with folks. Aside from the above, he also called the restaurant “Gangnam Style” when he can’t pronounce the name properly and then signs off the video by saying, “Love you long time,” a phrase used in Full Metal Jacket, which fetishizes Asian women.
Lots of problematic there, buddy!
‘Love Island USA’ Season 6 Spoilers: Nicole’s Dropping A Bombshell!
Messy. Dramatic. Intense. Insane.
Those are just some of the adjectives the cast dropped to describe the reunion special before it aired.
Kenny even went so far as to tease that “revenge” was on the table – but for who and what, he did not say!
What is clear is that something is going to go down with Nicole. Heading into the reunion, fans were actually convinced that she and Kendall had called it quits since leaving the show.
Kendall appeared on “The Viall Files” podcast solo on July 29 and said that they were still together. However, he did admit that things have been tough for them, saying they’re “taking it day by day.
Then, in a video posted from the reunion asking the cast about who was going to do their ‘big one‘ during the show, the vast majority of people said Nicole – including Nicole.
Daniela went so far as to say the special would rise to the level of “Bad Girls Club,” and if you loved reality TV in the early 00’s, you know that means TROUBLE!
Now, Leah Kateb did shut down rumors of a big “blowup” at the Love Island USA reunion on social media when TikTokers claimed they had receipts that thins got out of hand.
“Yall make any n everything up,” she insisted. But then, in the same breath, she claimed she was “done” with the franchise after filming the special.
Well, that doesn’t sound like NOTHING happened!
