What ‘Love Island USA’ cast was told about Cierra Ortega’s sudden exit following racial slur scandal
How did Sierra leave? So when I can’t really say, but when Sierra left and they gathered us all together, the producers gathered us all together and then they said unfortunately um Sierra’s has broken some of the policies of our guidelines. She’ll no longer be here in the villa and that’s the only information we can give you guys. So when we was all in there, you know, we didn’t really know what was going on, but that’s that’s the only thing they said to us. And you know, if we needed somebody to speak to, um go speak to them. Um, but yeah, now Nick was really upset that she left, but at the same time, he couldn’t really be super upset or like he couldn’t express how he feels about the situation until he found out what she’s done or what she’s said. Because end of the day, as much as like you want to feel sorry for somebody, if you know they got removed from a show for saying something offensive, you can’t really feel sorry for them until you know what it is. You know what I’m saying?
Recently “dumped” Islander Zak Srakaew is revealing what the “Love Island USA” Season 7 cast was told after Cierra Ortega’s sudden exit from the show following an off-screen slur scandal.
“When Cierra left, the producers gathered us all together, and they said, ‘Unfortunately, Cierra has broken some of the policies of our guidelines. She’ll no longer be here in the villa. And that’s the only information we can give you guys,’” Srakaew shared in a TikTok Live on Tuesday.
“And if we need somebody to speak to, go speak to them,” he added, explaining that he and his co-stars “didn’t really know what was going on.”
According to Srakaew, Nic Vansteenberghe — who had been coupled up with Ortega — took the news the hardest.
