Take a look at some reactions:


What sparked the fight between Phoebe and Mackenzie in Love Island USA?

The battle started after Phoebe kissed Chad and was seen bragging about it in front of his partner Mackenzie. Both the ladies are new to the villa and started pursuing Chad at the same time.

However, Mackenzie has been struggling to find her place in her relationship with Chad because everyone seems to be pushing for him and Phoebe to get together.

Earlier, Nadjha was seen supporting Phoebe’s feelings for Chad, but did not acknowledge Mackenzie’s emotions for him. This didn’t sit well with the latter, who then decided to have a conversation with Phoebe.

After Chad dumped Courtney and picked Mackenzie, he was seen confused about his feelings towards the latter. He confessed that he was leaning more towards Phoebe, who also wanted to explore her relationship with him.

Meanwhile, Mackenzie struggled to avoid Phoebe’s interference in her relationship with Chad. She was devastated when she caught Phoebe and Chad kissing in the makeup room.

In Love Island USA Season 4 Episode 31, Mackenzie told Phoebe that Chad never spoke about the latter the way she spoke about him.

Mackenzie said:

“I am just explaining my perspective, based on the way he had spoken about you to me. I don’t think that you can speak to why Chad didn’t say more about you guys.”

The statement somehow triggered Phoebe, who responded by saying:

“But I can, that’s the thing like I know he is not that type of guy. I am saying that like…”

Mackenzie then cut off Phoebe’s sentence and exclaimed that the Casa Amor star didn’t know everything about Chad. In response, Phoebe raised her voice a little:

“You don’t know everything! You actually have come in here, and you literally think that you know everything. You think you know all about Chad, but you don’t."

After Mackenzie pointed out that she found Phoebe kissing Chad “disrespectful,” Phoebe continued:

“I just had this kiss and like I was telling the girls about it, and then you kinda make me like take two steps back.”

Mackenzie then said that Phoebe misunderstood her as Nadjha had asked the Season 2 Islander about her feelings over Chad and Phoebe’s kiss. She further stated that she wouldn't allow Phoebe to attack her like that.

Going by their conversation on the latest episode of Love Island USA, things have gotten pretty intense in the villa. Only time will tell whether it takes a recoupling to fix the situation or whether the islanders will have to rely on a new bombshell's entry.
