There’s a war of words going down between JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez. The Love Island USA stars announced their breakup, and they have two very different versions about what happened. While Kenny said he’s “grateful” for their relationship, JaNa dragged him in an Instagram Story, and it’s clear that there’s more to the story that we haven’t heard.

JaNa and Kenny placed third in Love Island USA Season 6. They also appeared together in the spinoff, Love Island: Beyond the Villa. Earlier this week, the couple surprised fans with the news that they called it quits. In an Instagram Story on July 29, JaNa said their separation wasn’t on good terms.

“As you know, Kenny and I are no longer together,” she wrote in an Instagram Story on July 29. “Please know that I have seen all the breakup theories and none have matched up to how terrible, disgusting and disappointing it truly is.”

She continued, “Discovering someone you loved isn’t who you thought they were and that the relationship you thought you were building hasn’t been genuine since day one has been truly devastating.”

Adding fuel to the fire, one of JaNa’s friends posted an Instagram Story of her own, suggesting that JaNa discovered problematic texts in his phone. Neither JaNa nor Kenny has commented on that, and the friend has since put her Instagram account on private.

On Kenny’s Instagram, things have been suspiciously calmer. He shared a message to Love Island fans, noting how public breakups are difficult and that he was “quietly sitting” with his emotions and trying to “process everything privately.”

He wrote, “Sometimes, despite how deeply you care for someone, you come to the hard truth that the relationship was not something that could last long-term.”

JaNa did not take kindly to that and shared a follow-up message calling him a “manipulative liar.” In short, she warned him to stop talking about the breakup. Her on-screen pal Leah Kateb also took to her Instagram Stories with a similar message, calling out the former Islander for betraying JaNa.

“Tell the truth for once,” Leah wrote on her Instagram Stories, per E! News. “Racist, clout/money hungry and a scammer since DAY 1!!!! Tryna make it seem like it’s something it’s not. Dw, our Nay is blessed & highly favored.”

Love Island USA is streaming on Peacock.
