‘Love Island USA’ Contestant Yulissa Escobar Dismissed After Racist Posts Surface

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.
