Dirty dumps

During Episode 13, the results of the second fan vote were revealed, placing three couples – Kensi and Corbin, Sol and Caleb, and Jen and Gabrielle – at the bottom of the list of America’s least favorite couples.
The residents of the safe island then had to choose a boy and a girl to send home, which ultimately resulted in the boys getting rid of Sol from the villa and the girls getting rid of Gabriel. But what made the moment even more shocking was that Sincere was one of the islanders who announced that he had chosen Sol, despite having been engaged to her days before he was coupled up with Melanie. Earlier today, Sol also called Sincere out during a one-on-one conversation for being dishonest about his feelings, leading some fans to speculate that this is the reason why he wanted Sol out of the villa.
“I’m not surprised. Everyone was closed down when I came here. So they’re putting me out of my misery,” Sol told Madix after learning she had dumped her. “It’s like an island of couples here. I’m glad you found your one; I feel like I came very late to the game.”
Gabriel added: “I think I did my best. When you take yourself out of your comfort zone, you’re vulnerable, especially when you share your thoughts. I came here to explore and find my best connection. … I’m just proud of myself and I want to keep going.”
