Rekubit-Here’s How Often the Sheets in the Love Island USA Villa Are Really Changed

In many ways, LoveIslandUSA Rekubit Love Island USA is a six-week long slumber party in Fiji filled with snacks, gossip and drama. Plus, of course, a whole lot of recouplings.

All of that begs the question: How often are the sheets cleaned in the Islanders’ massive communal bedroom? When it comes to the answer, the season six cast isn’t necessarily in agreement.

“I’d like to say every day they get changed by the team,” Kenny Rodriguez told E! News in an exclusive interview. “The team there at Fiji is great. They made us feel so at home.”

Kordell Beckham, who won the season alongside girlfriend Serena Page, echoed his fellow finalist’s sentiments, noting the cast got new sheets, “every time we woke up, as far as I saw.” 

However, Kaylor Martin has her own theory. “They claim they change them every day, but I know they don't,” she shared, “because I would wear perfume to bed, wake up and smell it the next day I'm sleeping in it. So, I don't know how often. That's probably a little concerning.”

Still, she stressed, “They were definitely changed. We don't live in filth.”

And despite gushing over the general cleanliness of the villa, Kenny did admit to an instance that gave him some pause.

“There was a Band-Aid that I saw under the covers multiple days,” he revealed, “So, yeah, that was one thing I was iffy about.”

Still, the cast was confident the only thing dirty at the villa was the game play. As Liv Walker pointed out, with so many people and different personalities in the house, things would go downhill quite quickly if the living conditions weren’t up to par.

“We are all adults,” she explained, “and there's some germophobes and people who if the sheets won't change daily, they would complain.”

Plus, “a lot of us have long hair,” Liv continued, “you'd see the hair. They're changed, promise. I believe they're changed.”

However, the Islanders didn’t exactly get first-hand looks at the cleaning process as they were often in different parts of the villa. Joking that “magical ghosts” kept the place tidy, Kaylor added, “We go in and the bed sheets are changed.”

That is, except Kordell, who shared his account of seeing the crew in action.

“We'll be over there cooking, or girls up doing their makeup,” he revealed, “and I'll come back in the room to grab something I forgot, and I'll see them take the sheets off, change them. Even saw some of them was changing the pillowcases as well. Taking those off, changing them to new ones, cleaning the room, carpet—all of that.”

But he prided the Islanders on their own cleanliness. “It wasn't really much to clean,” Kordell said, “because the room was always clean anyway.”

While the villa itself was kept clean, the Islanders love lives were more than a little messy during their stay and in the weeks since leaving Fiji. And luckily Ariana Madix and the cast hashed things out during the Love Island USA season six reunion, streaming now on Peacock.
