👑 ROYALTY 👑

In 2026, I pray God brings people who are kind, intentional, trustworthy, inspiring, and proactive into my life. I pray for opportunities to expand my circle to include people who are meant for me. May my relationships be strengthened with those who enter and those who remain. 🙏🏽

@Variety They are not friends. They were “Villa friends,” which are just coworkers

"Love Island USA" star Beatriz Hatz says her friendship with Melanie is "fine": "Friends go through their own little discussions or quarrels, but at the end of day, we squash it. I think people aren’t used to seeing friends communicate and tell their friends, 'Hey, I didn’t like that,' or, 'Hey, I don’t think we should be doing this.' I think people just aren’t used to stuff like that, and I’ve learned that maybe my direct communication style is not for everybody. Being outside of this athlete space was something that I had to quickly learn: 'OK, I need to still be direct, but also maybe learn how to be direct in a little bit more of a gentle way.' So that’s something that I learned in my time in the villa." variety.com/2026/tv/news/l…

@leopardbonnet @esbs_ You actually write like you’re dumb af and since I don’t engage with people of lesser intelligence, I’m going to disengage from this conversation :)

@weluvneesh @esbs_ so mel can crash out abt a nigga she’s known for 48 hrs pulling a BOMBSHELL (stranger) but aniya can’t feel a way about an OG pulling kc for a chat? and they’ve all been together for the same amount of time. got it! yall are truly dumb asf..

Melanie is one of the realest, genuine and most respectful girls this season. She respected Kenzie and Corbin’s connection even when they were coupled up. She let Sol and sincere explore and didn’t shove herself in between them like Kenzie did with Corbin.

@leopardbonnet @esbs_ I don’t think it was weird at all. She *told* the girls that she was pulling KC and another guy (I don’t remember which one) when they were getting ready. This was early on and it was a courtesy. With Kenzie, there was already a clear investment in Corbin. It makes sense to chat.

@esbs_ so why didn’t she ask aniya for the green light to pull kc the same way she asked Kenzie? bitch is a weirdo

All facts 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 And, people need to stop saying Beatriz was the realest person in the Villa; it’s TRINITY. Trinity also called Melanie out, but she was aware of her tone and delivery, and wasn’t patronizing like Bea.

Part of this is vindication for Melanie. If she was really SO bad, if she was all the annoying and nasty things *Bea and the boys* made her out to be, Sincere certainly wouldn’t be running back to couple up with her. So now what? #LoveIsland #LoveIslandUSA

I must be basic because Sincere’s letter might’ve got me 😩 #LoveIslandUSA

@thebrookeash She definitely needs a show with a classier foundation.

@ninihardd @lavishamyrah No, notice the respect Mel had for herself. If he thought she would be open to it, he would’ve tried.

@lavishamyrah Notice the respect he has for sol

I won’t say anything, but I’ll just leave this here #loveislandusa

@adhdominican @AngelicLai20186 @melbrown00 This fandom is so obtuse.

@weluvneesh @AngelicLai20186 @melbrown00 u telling her what she should go by ain’t weird to u?☠️

Melanie: I don’t like when people call me “Mel”. All of social media: #LoveIslandUSA

@_its_marcelline @somie___ …. I think you want to be obtuse, so I’ll let you.

@weluvneesh @somie___ Melanie didn't receive anything because she did it again.

trinity is who you guys thought beatriz was. the realest.

@totallynotems_ He looks at her the way he looks at a woman he wants to fuck. So yeah, it’s different, but it doesn’t mean he likes her more or less than Aniya. But he may want to sleep with her more.

Not saying KC never liked Aniya but man the way he looks at Sol… it’s different

The way you all talk about “emotional regulation” but don’t have friends, struggle with mental health issues, and need drugs to regulate—like, please.

@lydaybubbles At this point, they better have some footage of Melanie being SUPER extra very early on that explains why everyone has this negative perception of her, because so far, I haven’t seen it. She’s expressive, but it’s not bad to be expressive or emotional.

The way they talk about Melanie inthat villa? Did they not see how heavy last night was for her? Choosing to sleep outside was for her not anyone else! Almost like she is not allowed to show any emotions at all? Attention from who?? #loveislandusa

@AngelicLai20186 @melbrown00 Babe, I don’t think you know what it means to be parasocial because this is the OPPOSITE of that. What do you think, “reserve Mela for her true friends and family” means? It clearly differentiates viewers/fans from that.

@weluvneesh @melbrown00 Yall are so fucking parasocial

@taliamakeda Them and the folks on social media. It’s LITERALLY emotional regulation.

Why are none of these islanders able to grasp that it’s healthy to walk away or remove yourself from a situation if you feel like you need to regulate/reset your emotions? Not everyone processes or suppresses their feelings immediately like get off Melanie’s tip. #loveislandusa

Sincere could’ve spilled their team’s bucket on himself. #LoveIslandUSA

Trinity: Kayda’s going to have a great time outside of the Villa Bryce: yeah, that tongue’s crazy (sad face) Yikes. #LoveIslandUSA

Now, KC… don’t go pissing me off. “She did it for attention.” The girl can’t have feelings and not want to hop in bed with another man? Be fucking for real. #LoveIslandUSA
