Huda Mustafa is officially out of the villa and breaks her silence on her experience on Love Island USA.
Huda has been a hot topic online since she stepped into the Love Island villa. From crash out moments, to her beauty on screen, shes kept viewers torn on whether to join Team Huda. During her time on the show, we also saw a more vulnerable side of her as she opened up about being a mom, while shedding a few tears here and there.
After leaving the villa, Huda was shocked to learn she had amassed over 7 million followers across platforms. She even gained a passionate, though controversial, fanbase known as Huda HQ. While loyal to her, the group has faced heavy backlash online. Some have dubbed them Huda Rats or Hudlims, accusing members of being racist or of attacking fellow Islanders who had any conflicts with Huda during her time in the villa.
In a recent interview with Entertainment tonight, the Love Island USA star reflected on her time in the villa. Huda shared that she often felt bullied and like she was going crazy, adding that shes relieved others were finally able to see what she was going through while in Fiji.
People online quickly flooded The Shade Room Teens comment section after Hudas interview. Many called her out for not taking accountability, especially for her actions in the villa. On the other hand, others defended her, saying reality TV edits make it hard to fully understand her experience.

While Season 7 may be over, the internet is still buzzing about the Love Island finale. Two moments involving Huda are still making waves. One was when she layed in bed counting down, waiting for Chris to come cuddle her. The other was when the two decided to cut ties during their final date. These moments have left the timeline flooded with think pieces about the whole situation.
