Cierra Ortega, a contestant of this summer's “Love Island USA” left the villa just a week before the finale of the hit reality series is set to air on Peacock.
Her departure, announced Sunday, followed weeks of uproar from viewers after old posts from Ortega resurfaced that contained a racial slur against Asian people. The show's narrator, Iain Stirling, announced Ortega had departed “due to a personal situation” early in Sunday's episode.
