“I want to split up this strong couple alliance” - The Circle star Kevin plots against Jadejha and Darian

The Circle season 7, a Netflix reality show, premiered on September 11, 2024. The show is based on a social experiment, where players are put in different apartments in the same building, and are disconnected from the outside world. All they have is an exclusive social media application to help them connect and become allies to go long in the game.

The show has dropped 8 episodes so far and as per the schedule, the show releases a batch of four episodes every week on Wednesday, with the next batch releasing on September 25. The finale episode of The Circle will air on October 2, 2024.

In episode 8 of The Circle, which aired on September 18, the game welcomed Gianna and Kevin again to take charge as the influencers. The two faced each other again in the deliberations and arguments to decide who would be blocked next in the game.

Kevin entered the hangout with a clear target, Darian, and wanted to break Darian and Jadejha's alliance. He proposed the same to Gianna (Nicky and Jojo), who did not agree with this decision and told Kevin that Darian is Jadejha's alliance and is a trustworthy friend of Gianna. Kevin wanted to break the alliance of this couple, as it would affect his game plan. He said:

"Gianna wants to group Darian in, with Jadejha staying, which is just not remotely going to happen. I want to split up this strong couple alliance."

How did things go for the Influencers in the hangout area in episode 8 of The Circle season 7?

In episode 8, the two influencers Gianna and Kevin made a comeback for the second time in the hangout area to decide the next blocking of The Circle. The two had been chosen as the influencers in an earlier episode of The Circle where they decided to block Savannah out of the game.

Things did not pan out mutually for the two influencers, as Savannah was Kevin's #CircleWifey at that time, and did not want to block Savannah in the first instance, but he had to.

However, for their second encounter, Kevin came prepared and did not want to let Gianna have it easy this time. Kevin was sure to save Madelyn and put Darian as his target. Darian, on the other hand, trusted his circle bro to save him from blocking as he was at the bottom of the ranking list.

Darian was the one to pick Kevin as the second influencer. But Kevin had formed an opinion that Darian was not to be trusted and wanted his alliance with Jadejha broken.

Kevin texted Gianna in the private chat in the hangout arena:

"If we keep them as a package, they will continue to have each other at number one, which takes high ratings from U and I. #ByeByePowerCouple."

Gianna, on the other hand, wanted to focus on Garret and Tierra because Darian was their potential ally. Kevin was adamant that he wanted Darian out, and went on to say that Darian was trying to get him blocked in the game which made him feel betrayed.

He also claimed that he was talking about blocking Gianna in their private chats. Kevin confessed shortly that he might have lied to Gianna about Darian wanting to block her.

Gianna felt that the whole thing was made up, as it did not make sense, and called Kevin a liar. Gianna also questioned Kevin that the last time they met, Darian was close to him, so why did he want to block him? Kevin replied in the chat:

"I want to make this a mutually beneficial decision, and this is the clearest option. I will take all the heat for this decision."

Before both could come to a mutual agreement, episode 8 of The Circle ended. Leaving the audience to ponder who will win between the two influencers, and who will be blocked in the next episode.
