Miguel arrived on the hit show during the kissing challenge and lost to Kendall. In episode 10, he was seen talking to JaNa Craig, who was paired with Connor. JaNa and Connor broke up eventually as the latter expressed that he had started to develop feelings for Leah. Miguel later ended up being paired with Liv.
He then took part in the Burning Love challenge, where he and Liv had to complete tasks and answer questions about the other couples. It was later announced that Miguel and Liv were not part of the public vote as Miguel was immune because he had just joined the show. Miguel and the other safe boys, Kordell, Aaron, and Connor, chose Hakeem as one of the three vulnerable males to get eliminated.
In the latest episode of Love Island USA, which aired on June 24, 2024, Miguel was seen flirting with Nicole, telling her that she was his number one choice. Miguel and Liv were still paired with each other after the elimination round. However, the show is all about recoupling and fans are eager to witness Miguel's journey unfold.
