‘Love Island USA’ Contestant Yulissa Escobar Dismissed After Racist Posts Surface
Yulissa Escobar was removed from 'Love Island USA' during the second episode of Season 7 after podcast clips of her using racial slurs resurfaced.
“Love Island USA” contestant Yulissa Escobar was removed from the villa during the second episode of Season 7, after podcast clips of her using racial slurs resurfaced online.
Her exit was given very little context on the show. At around the 18-minute mark of Wednesday’s episode, as the islanders were waking up, series narrator Iain Stirling announces, “Yulissa has left the villa.” It is unclear whether Escobar was removed from the villa in the middle of the night or whether the “Love Island” editors just cut her out of the episode.
Since joining the show, Escobar has faced massive online backlash after podcast clips resurfaced of her using racial slurs. In the clips obtained by TMZ, she is heard using the N-word multiple times while discussing previous relationships.
Popular on VarietyFans took to social media to express their outrage by leaving hundreds of comments on her Instagram, promising to vote her off the island once submissions became available through the “Love Island” app. Escobar has yet to respond to the backlash.
Escobar isn’t the only contestant whose digital footprint was exposed. Shortly after Peacock announced the Season 7 cast, an online user shared screenshots on X of Austin Shepard’s alleged TikTok likes, which included several posts supporting President Donald Trump. Shepard remains part of the cast.
The remaining female islanders include Chelley Bissainthe, Huda Mustafa, Belle-A Walker and Olandria Carthen. The male contestants are Ace Greene, Taylor Williams, Nicolas Vansteenberghe and Jeremiah Brown. The new bombshells who entered the villa on night one are Cierra Ortega and Charlie Georgiou. Former “Vanderpump Rules” star Ariana Madix returned as the show’s host.
The seventh season of “Love Island USA” premiered June 3 on Peacock. After a nearly 45-minute delay because of technical problems, fans were introduced to the 10 singles vying to win the $100,000 cash prize and find love on the island.
“Love Island USA” is currently streaming on Peacock.

MBC’s upcoming drama “The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun” has teased an intense web of love, revenge, and ambition among its four leads!
“The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun” follows the intense journey of Baek Seol Hee (Jang Shin Young), a single mother seeking revenge against a powerful conglomerate family for the sake of her only daughter.
Jang Shin Young x Seo Ha Joon — Bound by a Shared Purpose
Baek Seol Hee and Moon Tae Kyung (Seo Ha Joon) cross paths by chance but quickly find themselves united by a common goal: revenge. While Seol Hee is consumed by a desperate desire to avenge her daughter, Tae Kyung returns to Korea after 25 years to reclaim what was stolen from him. As they come to understand each other’s pain and anger, a deep bond begins to form. Will this connection help them achieve their goals, or will their growing feelings complicate their fates?
Jang Shin Young x Yoon Ah Jung — A Ferocious Battle Between Two Women
Once living a peaceful life running a small eatery while raising her daughter, Seol Hee’s world is shattered in an instant. When she discovers that the powerful Min Gang Group is behind her tragedy, she vows not to back down. Standing in her way is Min Kyung Chae (Yoon Ah Jung), the group’s favored successor. With good looks, wealth, and charisma built by privilege, Kyung Chae lives a life that couldn’t be more different from Seol Hee’s. While Seol Hee finds joy in life’s simple pleasures and radiates warmth and kindness, Min Kyung Chae—who’s had everything since birth—craves even more power. Their fierce showdown, with neither woman willing to yield, sets the stage for a gripping clash.
Jang Shin Young x Oh Chang Suk — A Past That Resurfaces
Seol Hee also shares an unresolved past with Kim Sun Jae (Oh Chang Suk), head of Min Gang’s legal team. Raised in poverty, Sun Jae rose through sheer intellect and drive—and now stops at nothing to get what he wants. Their shared history hints at unfinished business, leaving viewers to wonder: how does Sun Jae fit into Seol Hee’s fight, and is their connection a ticking time bomb?
Seo Ha Joon x Yoon Ah Jung x Oh Chang Suk — A Love Triangle Fueled by Ambition
A tense triangle also forms between Tae Kyung, Kyung Chae, and Sun Jae. Min Gang’s chairman Min Doo Shik (Jeon No Min) quietly hopes to see his daughter Kyung Chae grow close to Tae Kyung, who now leads the company’s new business division. But Sun Jae, eager to become part of the elite family, competes fiercely for Kyung Chae’s affection. As Tae Kyung infiltrates the company for revenge, Kyung Chae fights for succession, and Sun Jae schemes for status, their ambitions collide—igniting a storm of power plays, obsession, and betrayal.
How will these fateful relationships evolve—and who will survive the fallout?
“The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun” will premiere on June 9.
