"Love Island USA" star Charlie Georgiou entered the villa as one of the season's first bombshells.
However, his quest for love with Hannah Fields, 23, was cut short in a dramatic recoupling during episode 12, which saw him sent home after receiving the fewest votes from his co-stars.
Now, in a new interview, the British reality star is discussing the moments leading up to his departure and is also expressing his disappointment with a few of his cast members, specifically Amaya Espinal, 25, and Cierra Ortega, 25.
'Love Island USA' Star Charlie Georgiou Is Frustrated With Amaya And Cierra For Voting Him Out Of The Villa

"The votes are what sent me out of the villa that day. It was the votes," Georgiou told Decider. "They could have saved me. They did not save me. It is what it is," he continued before explaining what disappointed him most.
"I was disappointed in Amaya's vote and Cierra's vote," he added, explaining that he and Fields had supported Espinal during her lowest moments in the villa.
As for Ortega, since she and Georgiou entered the villa together, her vote to send him home stung even more.
"Cierra [and I] came in this together, and she knows how long I was trying to find a connection and how happy I was when I had it. At the end of the day, I think I was just the easy vote for them," he said. "They didn't want to have to deal with the wrath of their friends. They didn't vote for the guy that had the weakest connection. I think they just voted for the guy they thought would be the easiest to get rid of."
Georgiou Hit It Off With Fields On 'Love Island' Before The New Bombshell Entered

Before his departure, viewers saw Georgiou and Fields experience some turbulence in their relationship following the arrival of a new bombshell, Pepe Gonzalez.
Prior to the vote that sent Georgiou packing, he and Fields had a moving conversation, which he described to Decider as "beautiful."
"We spoke. We found out more things about each other on a deeper level. That conversation went on for a while and it was beautiful and we were so happy after it," he said. "I was like, 'Wow, this is it. I'm gonna get to experience this real Love Island journey now. We're gonna do this together. Whatever comes at us, okay. If we mess up along the way, it's all part of the journey.'"
He continued, "So, I was just ready for this journey, and then it was just completely cut short in a tragic way, like, in a really brutal way."
Fields' Energy Was Attractive To Georgiou

Georgiou also discussed what initially led him to pursue Fields inside the villa. "She was high-energy, she was funny, and I really loved her aesthetic," he said.
"She had a bit of a twang to her accent. We were just instantly into each other, we found a lot [of] things [in common]," Georgiou said, adding that the unseen moments of their connection were what made him fall for her even more.
"... the bits you don't see [in the show] and those little things that make it fun. I think that's what it was – attraction and energy," he explained.
Was Georgiou Surprised That Fields Moved On So Fast After He Left The Villa?

Elsewhere in his interview, Georgiou spoke candidly about his surprise at seeing Fields move on to Gonzalez so quickly after leaving "Love Island."
"Part of me feels like it should have been me there. So, yeah, it did [surprise me]. Of course it did," he said. "I think it would hurt anybody. But I knew that's what would happen. You get forgotten in there. You've got to move on. It pains me, it sucks. I don't think it's how it should have been. What can I do? There's nothing I can do. It's hard."
Georgiou Feels 'Robbed' Out Of His 'Love Island' Experience

He stated further that even though he wishes he were still in the villa to get to know Fields on a deeper level, he understands that she must move on with her life.
"She's gonna continue her journey now," he said, adding that knowing she'll get to connect with other guys "pains" him since he was "robbed" of the chance to develop something more serious with her.
"Mine was genuinely taken away from me. It wasn't like she chose someone else and I was dumped. Okay, hands up. That's it, I walk away. I was robbed. I don't know [if we'll reconnect]. We'll see. I've got to channel my emotions and move in a way that's best for me now. And she's gonna continue her journey," he finished.
