Isaiah Campbell plans to ask Sydney Paight to be his girlfriend on tonight’s episode of “Love Island USA” — after he was called out for comparing her to “natural beauty” Phoebe Siegel.
“I just don’t know how to go forward,” Paight tells Campbell in Page Six’s exclusive preview, suggesting that the diss is too painful to move past.
“Do I end it before I get even more attached than I already am and get just hurt again?” she asks her man.
“Sydney, you mean a lot to me and I would never really be comparing you to anything else,” he responds, expressing remorse for what he said behind Paight’s back.
Paight was made aware of Campbell’s comment during a recent game that unveiled viewer feedback — and their scathing social media opinions — to the Islanders.
“It would suck for Sydney to find out Isaiah was comparing her to Phoebe’s ‘natural beauty,’” one tweet read, causing Paight to spiral.
Paight previously forgave Campbell for briefly re-coupling with Siegel, only to realize that he made a mistake amid the temptation of Casa Amor.
“And I didn’t talk bad about you,” the stunning redhead tells Campbell in our clip, her face full of tears. “But clearly, you did. It just hurts.”
Paight admits in a confessional she has to “sleep on everything” before making a decision about how to proceed with Campbell.
Meanwhile, the handsome waiter-turned-model is hoping to take their relationship to the next level.
“Tonight’s going to be a big night for me,” he tells castmates Timmy Pandolfi and Jesse Bray. “I also wanted you to help me in making Sydney my girlfriend.”
Next, the guys are seen placing pink rose petals around the villa as Paight ponders what’s in store.
“I think something will go down tonight,” she says while getting ready with her girlfriends. “I’m just not sure what.”
Campbell tells the camera that he wants to show Paight he is “invested” in their connection and is striving to be “the man [he] should be” for her.
“I’m really nervous. I will be showing Sydney that she is my everything,” he adds. “This is a huge moment.”
“Love Island USA” — hosted by Sarah Hyland — is available to stream on Peacock. New episodes drop Tuesday through Sunday at 9 p.m. ET.
