JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez, the fan-favorite couple from Love Island USA Season 6, have officially ended their year-long relationship. The breakup reportedly happened on Sunday morning, July 27, 2025, with JaNa said to have initiated the split. Shortly after, the couple unfollowed each other on Instagram and removed all traces of their relationship from their profiles. Close friends and former castmates, including Serena Page and Leah Kateb, also unfollowed Kenny, signaling a coordinated fallout.
JaNa addressed the situation in an emotional Instagram Story, calling the breakup “terrible, disgusting, and disappointing.” She shared her heartbreak and said she felt deceived, claiming the relationship “wasn’t genuine since day one.” Her post sparked an outpouring of support from fans who had followed their journey since their time in the villa.
Kenny responded with a more restrained statement, acknowledging the pain of going through a public breakup. He expressed appreciation for the time they had together and wished JaNa well. However, JaNa quickly clapped back, labeling him a “manipulative liar” and accusing him of avoiding accountability for his actions.
More drama unfolded as JaNa’s inner circle came to her defense. Former Love Island contestants and close friends publicly sided with her, accusing Kenny of manipulation, dishonesty, and even racism. Leah Kateb went as far as calling him a “scammer” and claimed he was clout-chasing from the beginning. One of JaNa’s personal friends also hinted at disturbing remarks allegedly made by Kenny, including claims that he didn’t like Black women. These allegations added fuel to an already heated situation and sparked intense debate across social media.
The breakup has Ignited widespread discussion among fans, with many praising JaNa for her openness and emotional honesty, while others questioned whether there might be more to the story. Some have drawn comparisons to other high-profile reality TV fallouts, pointing out the speed at which things unraveled after the cameras stopped rolling.
JaNa and Kenny first met in the villa in June 2024 and finished in third place. Following the show, they maintained a long-distance relationship, with JaNa based in Las Vegas and Kenny in Dallas. They later appeared on the spinoff Love Island: Beyond the Villa, where they continued their romance while living separately during filming.
