"Love Island USA" alum Miguel Harichi is finally breaking his silence on the drama with Louis Russell after his GF Leah Kateb unfollowed him -- and yup, there's some serious trouble brewing.
In a lengthy IG post Saturday, Miguel called out folks he used to consider friends for talking smack about his relationship with Leah and letting social media drag her name through the mud, and he wants no part of it.
As for those unfollows? Miguel says it had nothing to do with Louis allegedly dating Huda Mustafa. Remember -- they sparked rumance buzz while attending the "Weapons" movie premiere together earlier this week. Instead, Louis says the whole situation rubbed Leah and her friends the wrong way.
Whatever Louis and Huda have going on now, Miguel says he’s not interested -- and respectfully wants his and Leah’s names out of that storyline.
Bottom line ... Miguel’s staying loyal to his girl and cutting ties with Louis -- and making it known ... this 'Love Island' drama can stay on someone else’s feed.

Jesse Palmer, who hosts "The Bachelor" and its various spinoffs, described Owens as a perfect candidate for the program in an interview with Us Weekly, where he said the former athlete had been through "hills and valleys in his personal life."
Palmer went on to describe Owens as a "great lead" and stated the lawyer "really wants to find a special person" through his involvement with the program.

He then described the fact he'd made the statements as a "mistake" and expressed he would be working to earn back the trust of both the contestants and viewers "every single moment that I’m on the show."
