'Love Island USA' Season 5: Are producers sabotaging Destiny Zammarra? Viewers fume as islander gets less screen time

PACIFIC HARBOUR, FIJI: 'Love Island USA' Season 5's male and female islanders split into two at Casa Amor as their relationships were put to the test. The arrival of several new bombshells during the Casa Amor twist has spiced things up and raised the excitement among the viewers.

However, the latest episode of the Peacock show left viewers disappointed as one of the fan-favorite islanders was missing. 'Love Island USA' viewers were furious when they noticed that they didn't get to see Destiny Zammarra even for once in the latest episode.

Are 'Love Island USA' producers trying to sabotage Destiny Zammarra?

Destiny was dubbed the villain of the villa for her recent behavior, which Jonah Allman called “toxic.” Destiny tried to explore connections and coupled up with Marco Donatelli soon after she entered the villa. While she thought they had a strong connection, Marco wanted to get to know other islanders.

Destiny called things off with Marco and Harrison Hans Luna showed up just in time, choosing Destiny as his partner. However, Harrison also ditched Destiny and her connection with Jonah also fizzled out. Destiny might not be the star of the villa but viewers have previously claimed that she has been depicted by the producers as the villain. Notably, Destiny didn't appear on the latest episode even once.

'Where was Destiny this episode????'

After the viewers noticed the absence of Destiny from the latest episode of 'Love Island USA', they brought a flood of outrage on social media. A Reddit user started a thread, writing, "Producers aren’t even trying to hide how they’re sabotaging Destiny."

Multiple users agreed and replied to the thread. One said, "The producers this time around are heavily involved with every decision these islanders are making. This season in particular feels very heavily produced." Another person added, "Yup, they do this all the time to the popular islander that they don't want to win. They already have who they want to win picked out, so ostracizing Destiny is their next tactic since she was saved by the islanders."
