PACIFIC HARBOUR, FIJI: Carsten "Bergie" Bergersen is certainly the most person in 'Love Island USA' Season 5's villa. But, is he being bullied because of being too innocent? It seems things are not going well between Bergie and Victor Gonzalez. The latter is indeed seen bullying Bergie with his words.

Bergie is clearly not creating drama in the house. But, being too innocent and sweet is itself the drama. Him not doing anything is pulling a lot of girls in the villa. But, this is definitely creating insecurity among other men. So, are they ganging up against Bergie?

Is Victor bullying Bergie?

In Episode 9, we see Carmen Kocourek saying to Victor, "I don't think anyone should be speculating on my feelings, I will share them when I want." To this, Victor lashed out and said, "I don't care about your feelings, I already apologize." He then looked towards Bergie, sitting near Carmen, and lashed out at him. Victor said to Bergie, "I don't want you to keep making s**t happen." Seeing Victor talk in such a rude manner shocked Bergie. After the verbal feud, Carmen went to Victor saying, "Bro, don't come heated yelling at me."

Well, this was not it. Victor furthermore continued lashing out at Bergie. He said in front of other fellow contestants to Bergie, "Why do you have to go to her like a puppy and tell her that I've belittled you."

'Need Victor to chill out'

Seeing Victor be all angry and say harsh words to Bergie made a fan claim, "I’m gonna need Victor to chill out on making Bergie face red." Another wrote, "Victor Victor Victor, just because bergie is quiet doesn’t mean you should bully him, I’m sorry your ego is bruised over a man you didn’t see as a competition. Now it hurts, do better and stop crying." A fan asked, "get victor out now… he’s exhibiting toxic masculinity on both carmen and bergs and he’s also bullying them… that’s not ok." Another called out, "Get victor out he is too old to be a bully." "Victor with soooo many (red fags) he liked “helping” Bergie at first cause he didn’t see him as a threat. Now that Carmen is actively pursuing Bergie, Vic literally cannot handle it," wrote another.
