Ahead of the Love Island USA Season 6 reunion premiere on Peacock, the show asks fans to “keep it kind and positive.”
In a statement on social media, the reality dating series thanked fans for their support but kindly asked them to be demure and mindful with their comments.
“The cast are all part of the Love Island USA fam now, and while we love your passion for them, we ask that you always choose to be kind. Let’s lift them up and spread the love. Enjoy the reunion, and see you in Fiji next summer!” read a post on X, the microblogging platform formerly known as Twitter.
“Big love to everyone who joined us in Fiji this summer!” read the statement. “The Season 6 reunion drops tonight on Peacock, and we’re buzzing to bring our Islanders back together.”
The statement continued, “The reunion is full of drama, but remember — these are real people, so let’s keep it kind and positive. Let’s end the season with the same love and respect we started with!”
The call to be kind to the Islanders comes as the casting team behind the show made a similar statement recently, calling out cyberbullying.
“We want to remind everyone that kindness matters. Cyberbullying is a real issue that can deeply affect our participants,” read the statement on Instagram from City Media Entertainment. “Let’s create a positive environment where everyone feels safe and valued. Please remember, behind every screen is a REAL person with REAL feelings. Your words have power — so, choose to uplift rather than criticize.”
Breakout star Leah Kateb recently took to social media to express her sentiment over the newfound fame and said she was done with the show following the reunion.
“I’m exhausted mentally physically and spiritually from this entire experience. I’m tired. I told them I am DONE after reunion,” she wrote on TikTok. “That’s all they were getting from me. Respectfully. Everything else I just can’t and they don’t even deserve me. Period moving on.”
