Nicole Jacky Calls Out Kendall Washington Over Leaked Video at ‘Love Island USA’ Reunion

The sixth season of Love Island USA made serious waves as fans were tapped in nearly every day when new episodes aired on Peacock. The cast not only pulled up in *stunning* looks to the season 6 reunion but also pulled out literal pages of receipts (looking @ the absolute legend that is JaNa Craig). 👀

Each contestant gathered to spill the tea on this past season, from the chaos at Casa Amor to the couples who came out stronger on the other side. Fans specifically wondered where Nicole Jacky and Kendall Washington stood after they left the villa, and dear bombshells, it’s juicy.

When host Ariana Madix checked in on their relationship status, Kendall started to reply before Nicole cut him off, “It’s been a bit tough on the outside, just trying to communicate.”

“Communicate? You have not been communicating,” Nicole said. “You never have been.”

Tension was high as Kendall revealed that he and Nicole were trying to “give each other space.” “After you lied to my face?” she asked, interrupting him again. Her partner from the reality series got emotional as he began to address an NSFW clip in a hotel room that got leaked the same night of the finale on August 19.

“I just want to say something. Obviously, the video is not okay. Nobody deserves that. Everybody in this room can agree, it’s fucked up,” Nicole prefaced before she called him out about when the events from the leaked video went down. “However, I think if you say you love somebody, in the moment, when you’re telling me about something you need to be honest. Instead of saying it’s from years ago to someone you trusted—an ex-girlfriend—and then I find out two days later from JaNa that it was in the hotel room before you go on the show to someone on a dating app is crazy.”

Nicole also accused Kendall of not checking on her or publicly coming to her defense when fans speculated that their relationship ended after they left villa. “This just puts me in such a fucked position because I care about you too and I love you and people are questioning that,” she said after other islanders attempted to defend Kendall. “Even though you let the world think we’re not together, we’re still together.”

According to Us Weekly, Kendall addressed the leaked video with a statement posted to his Instagram Stories on July 22—nearly a month before the Love Island reunion.

“I just want to address the content that came out from my past. That was something I shared to someone in confidence and trust. It’s unfortunate that it’s no longer private but it is what it is,” he said at the time before thanking fans “for the calls/texts to support me during this time.”

A few days later on August 1, Nicole posted her own statement, saying, “While Love Island was an amazing experience, things have not been easy since leaving the villa....There’s much more to share on what has happened since coming home, and for now, I’ve been taking time to process—these are real feelings and my real life.”
