Narrator Iain Stirling<\/a> made a brief comment confirming Alannah\u2019s exit on the June 25 episode. \u201cAlannah has left Casa Amor,\u201d he said.<\/p>\nThe 21-year-old had been facing scrutiny from fans after a resurfaced video<\/a> began circulating online, appearing to show her using a racial slur while singing along to Roddy Ricch<\/a>\u2019s 2019 song \u201cThe Box.\u201d She later apologized in a video after leaving<\/a> the reality show.<\/p>\n\u201cWe were told that she left for personal reasons,\u201d Parmida, 27, tells PEOPLE of how Alannah\u2019s exit was communicated internally.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\nAlannah Keyser, Amora Robinson, Parmida Keshani, Jaiden Bacciocco, Sydney Eugene and Tierra Davis on \u2018Love Island USA\u2019 season 8Credit: Peacock<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n
\u201cI just was praying that she was okay. We were friends, so I was just like, well, I hope it\u2019s nothing family-related. I hope she\u2019s okay. But yeah, that\u2019s what we were told,\u201d Parmida says. \u201cWe kind of just had to move on.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was also \u201cpretty crazy\u201d that the truth of Alannah\u2019s exit wasn\u2019t explained in full to Kayda until movie night, she says. Kayda remained single after Casa Amor and reunited with Zach, who had explored a connection with Alannah before she left, but he didn\u2019t tell Kayda that Alannah had been removed.<\/p>\n
Parmida returned to the villa with Corbin Mims after Casa Amor, and was met with a hostile reception from the women.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a rough start. They were all hating towards Corbin. I know it wasn\u2019t towards me, but at the same time, when they\u2019re all laughing as we\u2019re walking, that\u2019s still disrespectful to me,\u201d she says of her introduction into the villa. \u201cIt was hard for me to let it slide, but I do forgive, and I don\u2019t like drama, so I decided to let it go.\u201d<\/p>\n
She says she and the girls all \u201cgot along really well\u201d after that, though. \u201cI can see myself being friends with all of them outside of the villa. Me and Kenzie, we\u2019ve got to work on the friendship, but that\u2019s her problem. I\u2019m cool with her, but she does act a certain way, and I can\u2019t help but put her in her place. That\u2019s just the type of person I am.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n![\"Corbin](\"https:\/\/hermes.media.static.aol.com\/media\/2026\/07\/12\/df7949f6-2df9-3234-8b3d-39fe02b85da8\/9409bc3b-239e-4718-ac06-5e975e6231c1.jpg\"\/)

\u201cWe\u2019re still going to be closed off. We\u2019ve talked about that too.
