Kendall Washington dumped Nicole Jacky after the season 6 Love Island USA reunion aired. Both Kendall and Nicole took to their Instagram stories to share their news.
While the couple came in 4th place on Peacock‘s juggernaut dating show, their relationship was put to the ultimate test (Casa Amor wishes!) when an explicit video of Kendall was leaked for the world to see.
For context:
Kendall took to his Instagram story to address the XXX video that was leaked after the Love Island USA finale.
“I just want to address the content that came out from my past. That was something I shared to someone in confidence and trust. It’s unfortunate it’s no longer private, but it is what it is.”
Kendall wasn’t totally honest about what was on the video with Nicole or Love Island fans. Nicole later learned Kendall’s ex didn’t release the video, but a random person he sent nudes to just before filming Love Island.
Fans were as divided as Kendall’s booty cheeks in the explicit video leaked of him. While fans were understanding Nicole’s disappointment that Kendall lied to her, fans were frustrated she made the scandal about herself at the reunion.
Kendall’s statement:
“I have decided to end things with Nicole. It reached a point where it was not healthy for us to continue the relationship. I still love and care for Nicole. I’ve never developed such strong feelings for a woman in my life. I have no regrets for the connection I made with her in the villa. It was real.”
“She does not deserve any hate. Please stop with the negative comments/DMs. We’re taking this time to focus on our mental health.”
Nicole’s statement:
“On August 18th, Kendall and I agreed our relationship was worth working on, and we were making plans or me to visit him in Dallas soom. However, today, on August 20th, he called me and ended things.”
“While I understand and respect his decision, it’s hard to process this one. I opened up to him in the villa and still love and care for him now. I’m struggling mentally and all I ask if for privacy during this time.”
Privacy, please:
After requesting time to herself, Nicole made an appearance of The Viall Files podcast. She detailed how she learned about what was really on the XXX video of Kendall.
