Love Island USA star Caine Bacon has announced on social media that he has been ‘cancelled’ from the dating show’s first-ever reunion special, airing on Monday, August 19 on Peacock.
“Why is the reunion cancelled?!?” one fan asked in a comment, to which Bacon replied, “It’s not, I mean I got cancelled lol”
“Who knows if I say they had it in for me from the beginning?” he said, before indicating that he was on the verge of a mental “breakdown.”
“If I see any more stuff, another f***ing article against me, another comment from the producer, blah blah blah… f*** all this NDA bullshit,” Bacon threatened.
Bacon said he will not be “revealing any details” for now, out of respect for the mental health of others.
Fans are speculating that Bacon was disinvited from the reunion after he posted a now-deleted video at a Korean restaurant in which he used racist language.
Bacon has since apologized in another video“I would never have posted this video if I had known how offensive it would be,” he said.
‘I even googled certain things… and I really studied it. What I will say is, I realized in that situation why certain people were offended.
So, for the people who are really offended, I apologize, okay? I’m sorry. If you know me, or the people who have been following me for a while, know that I love all people, and I’m not like that at all.
“So in that sense, I’m truly sorry if this offended anyone,” Bacon added.
