Love Island USA<\/em><\/a>\u2018s JaNa Craig<\/strong> poked fun at the PPG group chat she shares with her former Islanders shortly before her now-ex-boyfriend Kenny Rodriguez was accused of making rude comments about her in a private text chain.<\/a><\/p>\n

JaNa, 28, was asked about her bond with fellow Love Island USA<\/em> season 6 stars Leah Kateb<\/strong> and Serena Page<\/strong> in a profile published by Elite Daily<\/em> <\/a>on Friday, August 1, to which she quipped, \u201cIf only you guys knew what we say in that group chat. We would get canceled so quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

The interview, which took place before JaNa\u2019s split from Kenny<\/a>, 24, highlighted the PPG (PowerPuff Girls) friendship.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, we love our other girls from season 6, but there was this unspeakable bond between me, Leah, and Serena,\u201d JaNa added. \u201cWhen the cameras were turned off, we were still there for each other \u2014 it wasn\u2019t just a TV screen type of thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

JaNa, Leah and Serena, both 25, have remained close since filming<\/a> their season of Love Island USA<\/em> in June 2024. They ended up in the top 3 when the show came to an end, with Serena winning with boyfriend Kordell Beckham<\/strong>. Leah and boyfriend Miguel Harichi<\/strong> were runners-up while JaNa and Kenny placed third.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, the trio and their respective partners reunited to film Peacock\u2019s spinoff show Beyond the Villa<\/em>. JaNa and Kenny ultimately called it quits while new episodes of the series continue to air.<\/p>\n

\u201cHi my loves. Thank you for all your love & support. It means the world to me. As you know, Kenny and I [are] no longer together,\u201d JaNa wrote via her Instagram Story on Tuesday, July 29. \u201cPlease know that I have seen all the breakup theories and none have matched up to how terrible, disgusting and disappointing it truly is. Discovering that someone you loved isn\u2019t who you thought they were and that the relationship you thought you were building hasn\u2019t been genuine since day one has been truly devastating. Thank you for respecting my privacy and please know as a child of God, I will always be OK.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kenny subsequently issued his own statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe past few days have been incredibly difficult. I\u2019ve been quietly sitting with a lot of emotions and doing my best to process everything privately,\u201d he wrote via his Instagram Story at the time. \u201cBreakups are never easy, especially in the public eye. Sometimes, despite how deeply you care for someone, you come to the hard truth that the relationship was not something that could last long-term.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThey got a text \u2014 and found love in the Love Island USA villa. The beloved British dating show made its way across the pond in 2019, following a crop of American bombshells searching for The One in a luxury tropical villa. In season 1, eventual winners Elizabeth Weber and Zac Mirabelli had a connection [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Shortly after Kenny broke his silence, JaNa made it clear that their breakup was not amicable.<\/p>\n

\u201cStfu you manipulative liar,\u201d JaNa wrote via her Instagram Story. \u201cYou not taking accountability and telling people the type of person you really are is insane to me!! My first statement was me being nice. Do not piss me off.\u201d<\/p>\n
