What did Kendall lie about on 'Love Island USA'?

As it turns out, Kendall lied to Nicole about that NSFW nude video of himself that leaked online following the Season 6 finale. Kendall had told Nicole that the video was "from years ago" and involved "someone [he] trusted, an ex-girlfriend."

However, Nicole later reveals to the cast that she learned from JaNa that the video was actually filmed just days before Kendall entered the Love Island USA villa, and it was with someone he met on a dating app.

Nicole tells viewers the "video is not OK" and "nobody deserves that." But then she turns her focus to Kendall, saying, "I think if you say you love somebody, in the moment when you're telling me about something, you need to be honest."

"I was there for you," Nicole adds. "That's why I haven't spoken up. I haven't said anything because it's f--king awful what you've been through. But you also weren't honest with me about it."

Kendall admits he "should have been honest with Nicole in that moment," but he wasn't ready to tell her. He explains, "My life was turned upside down, and I just wanted to have you there. And that's why I said that."

Nicole responds by saying she "stood by" Kendall, but it was then that he lied straight to her face. Kendall quickly clarifies that he "didn’t want to lie" to her.

Are Kendall and Nicole from 'Love Island' still together?

Despite their challenges, Nicole and Kendall are still together — but they definitely need to have some important conversations to move forward and keep their relationship alive.

Social media is clearly taking Kendall's side after the leaked video incident.

While Kendall's leaked video (and his subsequent denial) certainly threw folks for a loop during the reunion, social media seems to disagree with Nicole's response to the situation. One user clearly sided with Kendall in the comment section of one of Nicole's Instagram photos, writing, "Team Kendall. She never liked Kendall. It was all smoke & mirrors. Check how she distanced herself from him as soon as they left the island & arrived in LA (Before the video drop)."

Another echoed similar sentiments, writing, "Girl that was so messed up. You made it ALL about you. God forbid he just went through the most traumatizing thing of his life and all you’re worried about is how you look." Another commenter added, "Nicole how is Kendall supposed to worry about your feelings if he was the one that got exposed????"

Clearly, social media has a strong opinion on the Kendall and Nicole video incident and isn’t holding back!
