"What a drama king"- Love Island USA fans react to Rob not leaving the show with Andrea

Love Island USA season 6 aired a brand new episode this week on Monday, June 24, 2024. The segment saw the aftermath of the previous episode's elimination which sent Andrea and Hakeem home. The episode also welcomed two new bombshells into the villa.

Rob, the female-eliminated islander's partner, seemed determined to leave with her but decided to stay after a conversation with Aaron, one of his closest friends on the show. Although the islander was relieved Rob decided to stay, the viewers had a slightly different take.

Love Island USA season 6 episode 13 - Aftermath of Andrea's elimination explored

Love Island USA season 6's latest episode saw the aftermath of Andrea and Hakeem's elimination. As the eliminated female cast member got ready to leave the villa, Aaron pulled Rob aside for a conversation to convince him to stay.

"I'm not gonna tell you what to do and what not to do. Like, I understand if you do want to leave I completely get it," Aaron said.

Rob explained that he came to Love Island USA season 6 to find a connection and he did. He added that he liked Andrea a lot but before he could complete his sentence, Aaron interrupted him and told him he understood what he meant. The cast member added that he "selfishly" wanted Rob to stay.

"I don't want to leave you man, I love you. Dude, like, the only reason I even thought about staying is because of you, man. Like, the only reason," Rob added.

Soon after, Rob spoke to Andrea before she left Love Island USA and the eliminated contestant told him she wanted him to leave with her. Rob told her that although he wanted to leave, he believed he would feel like "such an idiot later" because their connection wasn't gone.

He added he could still see how he felt about her while being on the show and if it were "obvious" he would leave. He added that if he missed her despite meeting amazing people while on Love Island USA, it would strengthen their connection.

"I think I'm gonna stay," Rob told Andrea.

After the episode aired, fans of the Peacock show took to social media to react to the segment and criticized Rob for the 'drama', only to not leave with Andrea. They also praised his friendship with Aaron.

Epsiodes of Love Island USA season 6 are available to stream on Peacock.
