Love Island Contestant Tierra Davis Linked to 2018 Restraining Order

Resurfaced court records have focused attention on Davis’s past after her Casa Amor pairing drew strong viewer backlash.

Overview

  • The court documents, obtained by TMZ and reported by multiple outlets on Tuesday, June 30, allege a 2018 incident in which a then-16-year-old filed for a restraining order against Tierra Davis.
  • The filings say the complainant alleged repeated harassment, physical assaults and a threat that Davis would "shoot" her, and a temporary restraining order was granted at the time.
  • A judge dismissed the case in December 2018 after reviewing evidence from both sides, leaving the allegations unresolved in court.
  • Davis joined Love Island USA Season 8 as a Casa Amor entrant and was chosen by KC Chapman in the recoupling, a move that sparked backlash from fellow contestants and viewers.
  • The alleged victim reportedly said she only recently learned of Davis’s casting and wished her well, and outlets have contacted Peacock for comment with no public response so far, a development likely to drive more media attention to the show.
