In a shocking turn of events, Love Island USA Season 7 Episode 18 gave us the most controversial vote of the season—and the villa may never be the same. The girls dumped Hannah. The boys dumped Jeremiah. And everyone watching is wondering… did Huda pull the strings?
We kick off the episode with tension already brewing. Huda is on the outs after being called out in a challenge and feels like she’s being targeted by the villa. But by the end of the episode, she may have flipped the game on its head.
🗳️ The Vote Heard Around the Villa
When the girls were given the power to dump one of their own, it was Hannah—currently coupled with Pepe—who was sent packing. This caught viewers by surprise, especially since Iris is single and seemed like the more obvious choice.
But here’s where it gets juicy: Huda had expressed interest in Pepe. Could she have influenced the vote to eliminate her competition? The show conveniently didn’t show us the deliberation. Suspicious much?
Meanwhile, the boys voted out Jeremiah, who was just starting to connect deeply with Adriana. This felt like another twist manipulated from behind the scenes. Was this a move to clear the runway for Huda’s redemption arc? It’s giving production intervention.
🧨 Fallout and Feelings
Jeremiah felt blindsided. Adriana was livid. And fans were left speechless. Huda gave us a teary-eyed confessional about how hard it is to make friends and her desire to “rewrite her story”—a moment some believe was prompted by producers.
Let’s be honest: between her earlier clashes and Jeremiah’s growing popularity, the path was being cleared for a narrative reset.
