For the second time this season, a contestant was dumped from the Villa — but not voted out by the audience. Find out why Cierra left ‘Love Island USA.’

Cierra's departure follows that of fellow islander Yulissa Escobar, who left the show after videos of her using a racial slur on a podcast in 2021 re-emerged. Yulissa later apologised, saying on Instagram she used the offensive term "ignorantly, not fully understanding the weight, history, or pain behind it".
