Love Island USA' star TJ shares how Iris considered leaving the villa after his exit and reacts to her moving on with Pepe Garcia

TJ said he "didn't think" he would cry, but he was overcome with emotions as Iris called their time together "truly amazing" and said she wouldn't forget him

"I want to first start by addressing not just anyone that I have hurt or deeply offended, but most importantly, the entire Asian community. I am deeply, truly, honestly, so sorry," she said in a lengthy video.

Iris Kendall claimed she had a strong connection with TJ Palma, but her refusal to leave Love Island USA season 7 with him tells a different story.

Love Island USA viewers commented under the post announcing Zak Srakaew and Elan Bibas' departure, as they were left single and left the villa, and asked for producers to do extensive background checks next season. Before Cierra's departure, Yulissa Escobar departed from the villa after the first episode due to a similar situation.
