Love Island USA aired its season 7 reunion last night, and for the most part, it was pretty chill. Minus Andy Cohen starting beef with Netflix, of course. But apparently there was some drama left on the cutting room floor, and Austin Shepard wants it exposed.
In a move that presumably has the Love Island USA pr team spiraling, the reality star went live and said, “I can’t believe they didn’t show, what the fuck,” before Jeremiah cut him off with, “Yeah, yeah, I know, but just be careful!”
“I’m doing a tell-all—eventually, I’m doing a tell-all,” Austin added, while Jeremiah joked, “Do it when I’m not here. There’ll be PR.”
I NEED TO KNOW.
Anyway, in other Austin news he and Jaden Duggar spoke about the end of their relationship during the reunion, and it was interesting to say the least.
“I was happy to leave with you as a couple and I feel like I was blindsided by you in a way,” Jaden said. “Because I did send you a message saying if you were planning on dating or hooking up with people, if you could just let me know, but I didn’t care. I was like, ‘You can do whatever you want just give me the respect of letting me know that.’ And you didn’t.”
Jaden then said she was “basically bombarded by girls letting me know you had just come back from a date” at a party and was like, “Okay, cool, I wish he would have told me first and not the whole house. That’s an example of you making me look dumb.”
Meanwhile, Austin had this to say: “I didn’t say that I was going to see things through. Dating on the outside, I can still want to get to know you and go on a date with someone else. I wasn’t, like, not honest....I’m sorry I wasn’t transparent with you telling you I wanna go on a date.” He also claimed he didn’t “remember” if he’d responded to the message Jaden sent.
Hmmmm.
