Love Island USA season 7 aired episode 27 this week on Thursday, July 3, 2025. The episode saw the cast participate in a challenge where they ranked each other in multiple categories. The show host, Ariana Madix, mentioned that the audience was asked to vote on the same things. Towards the end of the task, the Vanderpump Rules alum shared a shocking update.
She told the islanders that America was asked to vote for their favorite male and female contestants and those who received the least number of votes, were at risk of being dumped.
Ariana revealed the three male and three female islanders who received the fewest votes and asked others to stand behind the one unsafe cast member whom they wanted to save. With a majority of the cast supporting Taylor, he was safe from elimination. However, the other unsafe contestants, Andreina, Jaden, Austin, TJ, and Gracyn, were sent home in a shocking 5-way vote out.
Fans reacted to five islanders being sent home online. One person wrote on X:
"5 people getting dumped lmaooo I LOVE A MASS DUMPING."

"On another note, I’m semi pleased with this episode….Olandria vs Huda vs Chelley made up we got a mass dumping (it was too many bodies in that villa) AUSTIN IS FINALLY GONE!!!!!!!" a tweet read.
