Published | Updated

'Love Island USA' Season 7 star -- and most loved-to-be-hated islander -- Huda Mustafa made her red carpet debut this week, and she didn't arrive solo ... showing up hand in hand with Netflix reality star Louis Russell.

Huda has been seen in public a lot lately with Louis -- who starred on Netflix's "Too Hot to Handle" Season 5, and is on the newest season of 'Perfect Match' -- leading fans to believe the two are an item ... and leaving us to wonder if the romance is confirmed, or if it's just two friends adding fuel to the fire.

The "Yellowstone" actor discussed the low point in his life in the exclusive preview clip of Wednesday's "Nothing Left Unsaid" podcast obtained by TMZ ... and he says not only did he lose material things, he lost his confidence as well.

Neil tells hosts Tim Green and Troy Green his work ran dry for about 2 years because Hollywood wouldn't accept his boundary ... and the deep plunge in his career took him on a "tailspin."

Times have changed ... and he even released a new project in May -- "The Last Rodeo" --  that sees him kissing a woman onscreen. How did he move past the hurdle? His real-life partner jumped in to play his wife!

Neal further discusses this dark chapter in his career, Clint Eastwood changing his life, playing so many villains over the years and more on "Nothing Left Unsaid" -- which drops Wednesday morning.
