Love Island USA Season 7 continues to keep audiences hooked with its rollercoaster of emotions, unexpected twists, and bombshell arrivals that regularly disrupt the fragile balance inside the Villa. As relationships form and falter, loyalties are constantly tested, and just when fans think a couple might be safe for the long haul, new arrivals or surprise challenges throw everything into question. With Episode 28 just around the corner, anticipation is high as viewers prepare for more drama to unfold on Friday, July 4, 2025, at 9:00 pm ET.
Episode 27 served up one of the most dramatic moments of the season, as host Ariana Madix stepped in to deliver news of an outside-the-Villa voting twist. While the public had a say in who would be at risk of elimination, it was ultimately the Islanders themselves who were given the difficult task of deciding who would stay. From the six Islanders placed in jeopardy, only one could be saved—and that decision was not made lightly. After much tension and emotional deliberation, Taylor Williams was chosen as the one to remain, while five others—Jaden Duggar, Gracyn Blackman, Andreina Santos, TJ Palma, and Austin Shepard—were sent packing. The eliminations shocked both the cast and viewers, especially given the popularity of some of the eliminated contestants.
The episode also brought a moment of clarity for the Islanders regarding public perception. It was revealed that Amaya Espinal, previously thought to be disliked by the audience, had more support than many assumed. This shift in understanding sparked reflection among the Islanders, many of whom had based their strategies on assumed public opinion. The atmosphere inside the Villa is more tense and unpredictable than ever, with remaining contestants now second-guessing who can truly be trusted and how much influence the outside world has over their fate.
As the show prepares to air Episode 28, viewers across multiple time zones are marking their calendars. The next episode will stream on both Peacock and Bravo at 9:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm PT on July 4. For fans tuning in from other regions, the airing schedule continues into the early hours of July 5 across international time zones. In Brazil (BRT), the episode will be available at 10:00 pm on July 4. In the UK (BST), it airs at 2:00 am on July 5, while Central European viewers (CEST) can catch it at 3:00 am. Indian audiences (IST) will need to tune in at 6:30 am, with Japan (JST) following at 10:00 am, Australia (AET) at noon, and New Zealand (NZDT) at 2:00 pm.
With emotions running high and the finale drawing closer, each episode now carries even more weight. As the remaining Islanders navigate the aftermath of the latest elimination and adjust their strategies, fans are left wondering who will rise to the challenge and who might be the next to face the public’s—and their fellow Islanders’—judgment.
