Rob Rausch from Love Island USA was recently seen with Nessa Barrett, despite his earlier statement that he's "not ready" for a relationship.

Rob and the singer were seen together in the same car just a few days after the reality dating show's finale, however their current relationship status remains unclear. The pair also recently began following each other on Instagram

Leah Kateb, known for her turbulent fling with Rob in the villa, took notice of the drama. A TikTok account, Celeb Snapz, reported that Leah added their post about the drama to her TikTok favorites. 

A fan commented: "Leah adding the Rob Nessa post to her favorites isn’t a big deal like she might just have wanted to share it with their ppg gc and talk shit about him BUT what really bothers me is if these delusional RobLeah shippers turn it into an edit and add some Tswift songs."

Despite the speculation, fans remain skeptical about their romance. Notably, Nessa was spotted in the passenger seat just before the release of her new single, "Passenger Princess." A fan on X, formerly known as Twitter, commented, "So the real reason Rob dropped Andrea is because Nessa’s management reached out to him for a PR Stunt. Okay."

Nessa teased the project on X by posting photos of herself with the same pink hair she had during her outing with Rob, where she was also in the passenger seat. Some fans are speculating that the TV star might appear in the music video for the song.

The news comes after fans shared screenshots showing Leah liking fan edits of her and Rob’s relationship.

Fans of the show were puzzled by the sighting, as the 24-year-old has been vocal about her reservations regarding starting a new relationship. Rob was eliminated from the villa in Fiji earlier this week, along with Kassy, Kaylor, and Aaron. 

He later participated in a sit-down interview on the Call Her Daddy podcast, where he explained that he is not eager to jump into a relationship, citing that he needs time to process his emotions after the show.

The reality TV star disclosed that he’s not eager to rekindle his relationship with Andrea Carmona now that the show has ended. 

 “I’ve been talking to her a little bit, but it’s not like – I think, I think once again, it’s probably better if we just kind of keep our distance for now,” he told host Alex Cooper on the July 24 episode of the podcast. 

"I think, right now, at this point in time, I’m pretty emotionally drained. I don’t know if I’m ready for anything like that."

He was also in a relationship with Leah and discussed their current status, saying,  "I think after everything, I think we will be amazing friends, and I think I’d rather just focus on that for now."
