Love Island USA's Jeremiah Reacts to Theory on Why Boys Voted Him Off
A hot new fan theory has entered the villa.
Following Jeremiah Brown’s shocking exit from Love Island USA during the June 22 episode of the Peacock reality series, some viewers have speculated that Jeremiah’s fellow islander Nic Vansteenberghe was behind the plot to vote him out, so that Nic could pursue bombshell Andreina Santos without competition from Jeremiah.
And as it turns out, that’s a hypothesis Jeremiah himself could also support.
“I get that, ‘cause every guy chose Andreina to kiss during the challenge,” the 25-year-old told E! News in an exclusive interview. “Once they saw us kissing, they were probably pissed, because Nic definitely told Cierra [Ortega] and me that he’s wanted to pursue that. He's interested in her. I don't know if she's his type, but he definitely finds her attractive.”
Nonetheless, Jeremiah was understanding about Nic, 24, wanting a better chance at wooing Andreina.
“I know he did say after I left, ‘Now that Jeremiah’s gone, there's less competition,’” he continued. “So I get it. That's all I can say at this point.”
While Jeremiah—whose tumultuous coupling with Huda Mustafa defined much of his time in the villa—admitted he wished he had gotten more time with Andreina, he held out hope that he might still have his chance with her in the near future.
“If she walks out single, I’m for sure gonna hit her up,” he teased. “But we'll see.”
Fans have been quick to share their thoughts about the dating competition’s seventh season on social media, but some have been particularly vocal with their takes. As such, the June 24 episode of the series featured a reminder for audiences to be respectful online.
“THE KEYWORD IN LOVE ISLAND IS...LOVE,” the onscreen message read. “WE LOVE OUR FANS. WE LOVE OUR ISLANDERS, WE DON'T LOVE CYBERBULLYING, HARASSMENT OR HATE.”
