Huda shockingly reveals she almost drowned in the pool during tense Love Island USA finale
She opened up about her terrifying near death experience
Huda has revealed that she almost drowned in the Love Island USA pool during the finale, and now it makes more sense why she wasn’t spotted swimming in it before.
During the Love Island USA finale, it’s standard for the remaining couples to jump in the pool together, however Huda admitted in an interview with Elite Daily that her choice of outfit wasn’t exactly the best for such an occasion.
She revealed: “Oh my God. I was f*cking drowning. I swear to God, that dress heavy as f*ck. I was like, ‘You guys, I’m going to sink.'”
It didn’t exactly help that Huda doesn’t know how to swim, as she explained all she knows how to do is “doggy paddle” and at just 5’3 the pool was a lot deeper than she is tall.
Luckily for Huda, her Love Island USA co-stars Nic and Pepe helped to rescue her from her near death experience, as she recalled: “I was trying my best, like, ‘Jesus, give me a break.’ I was over here trying to doggy paddle, keep my head above the water, try to f*cking breathe.
“I was basically drowning. Pepe and Iris were right there, and Pepe was holding Iris. He grabbed me first, and then they passed me off to Nic.
“They both just held me afloat until I could step on the ground. They were being good friends in all honesty.”
Huda also addressed the iconic moment where she was pictured holding onto Nic in the pool as he and Olandria were kissing.
She explained: ” I laughed so hard when the camera panned to me holding onto Nic and Olandria,” she says. “I’m the third wheel in every relationship.
“It’s so f*cking funny, but they were all including me on their own. It’s not like I was pushing. Everyone’s like, ‘Huda, come here. Huda, come here.’”
