Iris and TJ were spotted hugging for eight seconds, before Austin came and picked her up into a cuddle, a TMZ video shows. They reportedly went on a walk and talk for about two hours before going into his place to meet the other Islanders.

Her friends dropped her off at TJ’s place, and in the video, you see him come out to meet her on the street. Pepe didn’t go straight to Los Angeles with the rest of the Islanders and instead went home to nearby Orange County to see his parents and his dog.

TJ recently came out to say he’d be lying if he “wasn’t put off” seeing Iris and Pepe together, but did admit he wanted to chat to her to make a final decision about her. He even said that he “didn’t care about the prize money because she was the prize for me.”

Pepe just revealed him and Iris are meeting up

Pepe confirmed that he only has eyes for Iris right now, which is “how he dates”. Pepe and Austin were actually with Iris and TJ when they all reunited, but Austin didn’t show up to hug her until after their private moment.

He drove Iris home when they got home, FaceTimed her as soon as he reached his place, and had plans to meet her later that night in Los Angeles. Pepe also confirmed that he wants to rekindle his friendship with Hannah outside the villa.
