Love Island USA season 6 granted singles the ultimate opportunity to find love. 23-year-old Kenny Rodriguez and 27-year-old JaNa Craig grabbed the opportunity and found compatible partners in each other.
In the latest episode, Kenny confessed to JaNa that he wanted to be "closed off" since he was uninterested in meeting anyone new. JaNa, pleasantly surprised, was unable to contain her excitement.
"I'm getting married!! I'm joking, I'm joking. But you guys are all invited," said JaNa.
The villa saw many 'bombshells' walk in during the show, attempting to stir the pot by exploring several options. However, Kenny entered with his eyes set on JaNa. The duo hit it off immediately after Kenny took her on a date at the beach.
JaNa wanted to be with someone who matched her energy and prioritized her. After having three failed relationships on the show, she ultimately found her perfect match in Kenny. A minor hiccup during Casa Amor week helped Kenny and JaNa recognize how genuine their feelings were for each other.
Kenny reveals he wants to be "closed off" with JaNa in the latest episode of Love Island USA season 6
In episode 30, viewers witnessed Kenny formalize his relationship with his Love Island USA partner JaNa. He brought her to the dock to discuss the status of their connection. As JaNa patiently awaited his response, he revealed that he was uninterested in pursuing anyone else, since no one made him feel how she did.
"I want to be closed off with you in here. For real for real. I don't wanna be f**king around with nobody else," said Kenny.
Kenny's confession made JaNa feel elated. Before coupling up with Kenny, JaNa had Coye Connor, and Hakeem as her past partners. However, those relationships did not materialize since JaNa felt unwanted and betrayed. Coye's lack of communication frustrated her, and she felt betrayed when Connor chose Love Island USA co-star Leah over her.
Her relationship with Hakeem could not last since he was voted off the island after receiving an underwhelming number of votes from the viewers.
"I do have this, like, fear of rejection. I come in here, and I get reject after reject after-- Yeah, you saw my track record. So, like, I decided to be myself with you, and like, I found, like, the happiness I've been looking for," said JaNa.
With Kenny's arrival, she finally found the person who valued her for who she was. While speaking to her Love Island USA partner, JaNa thanked him for making her feel special and letting her be herself.
"I'm just really, really happy that you've accepted me for who I am and the way I act and the way I carry myself, you know?" said JaNa.
Kenny complimented JaNa's generous personality, admitting he felt "blessed" to have connected with her inside the Love Island USA villa. He mentioned that no one in the villa piqued his interest the way she did and that he wanted to spend all his time with her.
Previously, Kenny broke JaNa's heart by arriving coupled up with Casa Amor 'bombshell' Catherine. He justified his decision by stating that he wanted to test his relationship with JaNa, but the latter refused to reason with him. Kenny recognized his mistake and mended his relationship by choosing JaNa at the next recoupling ceremony. His Love Island USA partner accepted him, impressed by his romantic speech.
In the latest episode, Kenny revealed that their relationship felt serious as he could imagine JaNa as his companion outside the show. The duo appeared excited about meeting each other's families. JaNa complimented Kenny's mother and called her a "baddie" for raising "a king" like Kenny.
Their fellow islanders were overjoyed to hear that JaNa and Kenny formalized their relationship.
"Congratulations to us! Yeah!" said JaNa.
