Overview

• Jennifer Iglesias says Laura Maria Lettgen chose Nam at the pairing ceremony to break up her couple and gain attention, calling the move inauthentic.
• Tatum Koch describes Laura’s kiss with Filip Pavlovic during a challenge as the longest and says watching it was uncomfortable, though she and Filip reconciled.
• Umut Tekin says he does not regret kissing Laura but felt guilty toward Jeje Lopes, and he confirms a brief hospital visit for a hand injury early in filming.
• Marco Cerullo becomes the season’s first exit, saying he found no connection and noting Laura was not his type as he prefers more “natural” looks.
• Contestants also reacted to Laura recounting Filip’s momentary lapse on Tatum’s name from a Private Suite visit, which Tatum viewed as a deliberate provocation before smoothing things over.
