Pepe Garcia & Iris Kendall Split Over Cheating?
The Love Island USA Season 7 reunion just filmed in New York City and will air Monday, August 25th. Most who left together are still going hot and heavy. This included Pepe Garcia and Iris Kendall, both of whom came in as bombshells. They appeared to be very happy and in relationship bliss, even as they headed on the interview circuit amid leaving the villa. Fans loved seeing their story continue to unfold, but has that all crumbled due to infidelity? Pepe had been accused of being a liar and a cheater by an ex-girlfriend when he first showed up in Fiji.
The former pro basketball player was not considered trustworthy, but he was able to win Iris over. They left the villa as an item and seemed to be doing very well. Now, it is being alleged that Pepe was unfaithful when he slept with a girl he met on social media in a lobby. He was still very much with Iris when this happened, and everyone around her had unfollowed him. Additionally, Pepe appears to be liking other ladies’ posts, which is a major red flag for anyone invested in him. After this was revealed, the reactions were mixed.
Some believed he was capable of this, while others did not think it was legitimate. The girl who exposed his actions resembles Iris, and that has been fascinating. Love Island USA fans firmly believe he has a type and cannot escape the stigma surrounding him. This will, as it seemingly came out after that was filmed. Yet, there may be a title card detailing where the couple currently stands with each other.
Love For Pepe
After seeing all of the gossip surrounding Pepe Garcia and Iris Kendall, not all Love Island USA fans were ready to ditch him. They noted that he and Iris were not in a serious, committed relationship; therefore, no one was unfaithful. Others said that he was too cute to unfollow, so they would continue to keep tabs on him:
- How does one cheat on someone they’re not officially in a committed relationship with?
- All the allegations make you wanna follow lmao cause all we hearing is he single now
Then, others want nothing to do with his bad behavior and are ready to say goodbye to Pepe:
- Is anyone like actually surprised most of the couples don’t care about eachother?
- of course all this comes out after the reunion.. smh
Despite the unfollowing claims, it does appear that Iris and Pepe still follow each other. So, either they are working through things, it never happened, or they have not had time for social media.
Do you believe that Pepe cheated on Iris, or is this all a fabricated story? Let us know and watch the Love Island USA reunion only on Peacock.
