"He has already fallen" — Love Island USA fans react to Kordell wiping Serena's tears

Love Island USA season 6 new episodes are released from Thursday to Tuesday on Peacock. This week, Movie Night caused havoc as the islanders were shown clips of their time on the show so far. However, that was not the only difficult segment as 3 islanders were eliminated soon after on Thursday, July 11, 2024.

After a surprise recoupling ceremony, Liv, Daia, and Catherine, who were left without partners had to leave the show. Fans and contestants grieved Olivia aka Liv's departure after she was previously termed a "girl's girl" by the fans.

Although she left without a romantic connection, Liv gained friends who cried when the islander was being sent home. This included Serena Page, whose romance with Kordell Beckham was slowly recovering after his Casa Amor stunt.

Despite the two being at odds, Kordell offered support to Serena and wiped away her tears. Fans of the show took to social media to chime in on the segment and commented on the couple's equation. One person wrote on X (formerly Twitter):

"Wait kordell was wiping Serena’s tears with his hands. oh that boy is not just falling, he has already fallen #LoveIslandUSA"

"After watching so many seasons and versions of Love Island I’ve seen so many black women on this show misunderstood. Watching Kordell protect and defend Serena even when she was upset and not speaking to him was so beautiful to see. #Loveislandusa," one fan commented.

"Omg did yall see Kordell wipe Serena tears ! STOP IT RIGHT NOW #loveislandusa," one viewer mentioned.

Love Island USA season 6 fans were impressed by Kordell not spoiling Serena's makeup while wiping her tears.

"Kordell patting Serena’s tears and not wiping bc her makeup? TOP TIER #loveislandusa," one person wrote.

"Wait, the way Kordell patted Serena’s tears away so it didn’t ruin her makeup #loveislandusa," another fan commented.

"Y’all see how king Kordell dabbed Serena’s tears away instead of wiping to not mess up her makeup. It’s the little things #loveislandusa," another person wrote.

Love Island USA season 6 fans further said:

"I realized Kordell’s trying to pat Serena’s tears like she & the girls do to not mess up their makeup. Looks hilarious but the intent makes it so much cuter. #loveislandusa," one person wrote.

"I was fine all through Rob's speech but then I saw Kordell wiping Serena's tears and now I'm crying #LoveIslandUSA," another fan commented.

Liv's elimination makes the Love Island USA season 6 cast emotional

In Love Island USA season 6 episode 27, Olivia aka Liv was eliminated from the villa after being left single after a recoupling ceremony. As Ariana Madix revealed that Liv along with Catherine and Daia was eliminated from the show, the original female islander began to sob.

While the gesture was a small one, fans caught Kordell wiping away Serena's tears as they sat and waited for the ceremony to be over. As soon as the host told the eliminated contestants to say their goodbyes, the female islanders gathered around Olivia and hugged her as they sobbed together.

Later in the episode, the Love Island USA season 6 eliminated contestant gathered the women in the dressing room to address them one last time before she left the show. Liv said:

"From day dot, I loved you guys. You took me in like a family, even though I came in and took your man. I've never had sisters in my life, and I've always wanted sisters. And now I'm gonna cry but I have sis— I feel like I have sisters for life."

She added that the Love Island USA season 6 islanders taught her so much and apologized for the mean things she said during her time on the show. Liv added that she wouldn't change any part of her journey since it introduced her to them. Liv added:

"You're all bad b***hes, so I know you guys are gonna make it work, but please have each other's back. Please have K.K.'s back, even though I know she's got it herself, please."

After a tearful goodbye, Liv left the villa with Catherine and Daia. After the episode aired, fans of the show took to social media to share their thoughts on the emotional elimination and zeroed in on Kordell's gesture towards Serena.
