Vasana Montgomery will no longer appear on Season 8 of "Love Island USA" after videos surfaced online showing her using a racial slur. The reality series removed the cast member ahead of its upcoming season premiere following the emergence of the content on social media platforms.
According to Variety, "Love Island USA" has removed an islander from the villa for the second consecutive year after social media posts surfaced showing the use of the N-word. The outlet reported that this represents a recurring situation for the reality series, with similar circumstances arising in the previous year involving another cast member.
The Hollywood Reporter confirmed that Montgomery will not appear in the upcoming installment of the reality series. The outlet reported that videos depicting her using the slur had surfaced online, prompting the decision to remove her from the cast ahead of the Season 8 premiere.
Both outlets identified the cast member as Vasana Montgomery. Variety noted that the removal follows a pattern established in the previous year, when the show also dismissed a cast member after social media posts containing the N-word came to light. This marks the second year in a row that the series has taken such action against a cast member for this reason.
The decision to remove Montgomery was made prior to the season's broadcast. She will not appear in the upcoming installment of the series, according to both Variety and The Hollywood Reporter.
