In Love Island USA season 7 episode 13, which aired on June 16, 2025, Huda's emotions were at an all-time high as she couldn't figure out why America (fans' vote) separated her and Jeremiah. She was upset by fans coupling up Jeremiah and Iris and spoke to Ace about the same.
She asked whether there was something she didn't know, and Ace explained to her that her and Jeremiah's conversations scared him and called them "lovebombing." He also said that he believed they came on the show with an agenda and didn't believe their relationship.
Huda explained why she acted the way she did while on the show and said that she was a mother. However, Ace was unfazed and added that he knew how difficult dating as a single mom could be since he was raised by a single mother himself.
