Vasana Montgomery has issued an apology statement after she was removed from Love Island USA following a resurfaced video of her saying a racial slur.<\/p>\n

In the video<\/a>, she\u2019s shown using the n-word on two different occasions. In one, she says, \u201cknock knock n****\u201d whilst playing a shooting game at an arcade. In the other she\u2019s rapping along to a song whilst using it. Both videos were posted to private accounts prior to the cast announcement, so Peacock would not have been able to view them during the casting or vetting process afterwards.<\/p>\n
