Love Island USA contestant Yulissa Escobar has left the show shortly after season seven got underway.
While the reason for her departure from the villa hasn’t been revealed, Escobar’s exit comes shortly after clips of her using racial slurs resurfaced online.

When Peacock was reached for comment, a spokesperson shared a statement similar to Stirling’s comment with The Hollywood Reporter.
After the season seven Love Island USA cast was revealed last week, Escobar has faced backlash on social media after podcast clips resurfaced of her using racial slurs. In clips obtained by TMZ, she is reportedly heard saying the N-word multiple times.
Escobar has yet to respond to the criticism as she’s been in the villa where no personal cellphones are allowed.
The remaining season seven Islanders include Chelley Bissainthe, Huda Mustafa, Belle-A Walker, Olandria Carthen, Greene, Taylor Williams, Nicolas Vansteenberghe, Jeremiah Brown and Austin Shepard. However, the latter has also received backlash online from fans after a user on X (formerly Twitter) shared screenshots of Shepard’s alleged TikTok likes, which included posts supporting President Donald Trump. He remains in the villa.
Love Island USA season seven is currently streaming on Peacock, with Ariana Madix returning as host. At the end of episode one on Tuesday, the first two bombshells, Cierra Ortega and Charlie Georgiou, entered the villa.
The show follows a group of single Islanders searching for love in a beautiful Fijian villa. Throughout their stay, “Islanders will couple up to face brand new heart-racing challenges and bigger twists and turns than ever before. Temptations rise and drama ensues as new ‘bombshells’ arrive, forcing Islanders to decide if they want to remain with their current partners or recouple with someone new,” the show’s logline reads.
