A lot of people were bashing Destiny for absolutely no reason at all. This guy....smh excuses excuses. He didn't like Imani and just didn't want to hang out with her. All he had to do in LA was re-check his bags (if necessary), and he could've had a drink with her at the airport or nearby.

[@choymarie9672]

Wow, that is crazy how they were trying to paint destiny for ignoring him and going straight to sleep.. Dude just said they talked for like an hour&half.. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Producers really was trying to set her up.. 😮

[@JanelleScantlebury]

Yup production is nasty, I remember having an argument with someone about this,I told them Destiny and zay talked but they didn't show it because zay said he had a nice time and he was all smiles. The person told me no she disrespectful and wicked she just went in there and sleep she could've given it to someone else and alot of bullshit. Production screwed that girl over this whole show smdh

[@Two2too]

We know what the producers have to do, but people jump to conclusions off of a 1.5 minute edited scene.

[@Nekanailsit]

He makes no sense... How do you feel like you couldnt tell imaini it was frendship vibes based off of one conversation but told everyone else 🤔 that makes no sense. Hes contradicting himself. You literally said you couldnt base it off of the converstations you had so why even say it then 😒

[@JanelleScantlebury]

Oh please zay, you told that girl the same thing over and over and over. Stop playing the victim🙄

[@nicolestanford8154]

Right she even said that . She was tired . What i found weird imani said he was all about destiny 😢 like am so confuse

[@JanelleScantlebury]

@@nicolestanford8154 From watching this Zay wanted Destiny to be all about him, she still had a connection with Mike, which after movie night she was done with. Zay felt a way that's why he told her he wanted to explore. He never wanted to explore he just wanted Destiny to beg him to stay with her, so that's why I believed he was telling her the same thing 3 and 4 times.

[@nicolestanford8154]

That is actually a great take on that situation😂.

[@choymarie9672]

Zay is confusing, you don't know what the hell he talking about, cause he said he spoke to her and she kinda got defensive about it.. So why the hell would he want to talk to her again about the same thing over and over!? 🤔

[@jigiw]

@@JanelleScantlebury i agree 100% with you, he need to grow- up and stop with is explore? Destiny give him space to explore many times? why h's not explore?

[@Fan-qu8qy]

Those OG’s were shook! 😮. I laughed so hard here this handsome man comes out with Destiny on his arm. Kenzo face was priceless

[@Fran-kk8mg]

Did y’all even watch the show? The night they were sitting in soul ties he told her he wanted to get to know other women. They even ended the convo with a hug. He gaslighting like a bihh. He was intimidated by her and felt threatened by mike and hers relationship. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@JanelleScantlebury]

I wish I could like this comment a million times

[@niecyxTM]

Like literally the red wedding he told her and she said ok. Then again before the challenge before he kissed kassy. Then tried to talk about it again. She got the point!

[@whothecoolgal]

Right? It seems like she was sick or had a mental health break because she was away from filming after Kay Kay and Keenan left. She comes back the morning after Scott’s arrival and he’s pulling her again to have the same talk?

[@dlcrme]

They ended that convo saying that would discuss it more later because Destiny was exhausted and was taken aback by him asking to be open. I think he still felt they needed to discuss more but Destiny was already checked out after that.

[@lez2884]

@@dlcrmeAfter he kissed Kassy what else needed to be discussed.

[@nayp9548]

In his what 6 days, Zay had a pattern of rambling and not accepting responsibility. He blames Destiny for having a gazillion conversations over and over, and now he blames Johnnie and Scott for repeating his own words! Imani was in the same single 30-minute conversation with Zay the afternoon of the recoupling (their first convo) but afterwards she told the girls, how positive she felt; while Zay said behind her back that he did not want to force a relationship with Imani and only felt a friendship vibe. (Scott was sitting in proximity to hear the conversation - Zay said what Zay said!), What wasn't fair to Imani is you not having that conversation with Imani (just like you talked behind Destiny's back to Matia all the time) and having Marco and Bergie tell you to 'just enjoy a vacation' - Zay needs stop placing blame on Scott and Johnnie and his your behavior.

[@lisabella221]

He salty

[@JanelleScantlebury]

Very salty, and he always tries to make himself the victim

[@daonlyboriqua11]

Like we seen it happen in 4K and hes still lying lmao Yall had the stupid conversation up in soul ties right after the Red Wedding dumping. When he not only had zero cares in the world about how she was feeling in that moment but made it very clear he wanted to talk to other people. She told him okay he can do that but shes not waiting around. They hugged and it was over. Then he goes and insist on having the rejection convo over and over again in the following episodes cause he didn’t get the reaction he wanted from her. Of course shes gonna walk away. He wanted to push her to giving him an outburst so he can continue painting himself as the victim and her the villian. He ran around the villa running his mouth about her too. We SAW you why get on here and continue to lie lmao

[@dlcrme]

He acknowledged they discussed it multiple times but I guess he felt like he wasn't being fully heard. During the Soul Ties convo she kinda shut it down because she was not in the right head space and he sprung it on her out of nowhere. I guess he thought once she had more time to think about it, they would check in again. I think they just have two very different communication styles and needs.

[@user-kp2rv4rr5n]

@@dlcrme They had the conversation after that massive dumping. She heard him out and said okay. There was no need to keep having conversations about it. He was dragging it because he wanted screen time since none of the other girls wanted him. Zay is just an idiot. There were just a few days left and he was talking about exploring other options, what options? Also no means no. If she said she didn't want to talk then he should've respected that instead of forcing her to talk. Zay doesn't respect women's boundaries and it's clear.

[@uchennamgbaraho3623]

But didn’t he tell Destiny he wanted to be open after the red wedding and then after she came back from being sick from the hideaway so it wasn’t just that one time.

[@bee3467]

And also before a challange or something. 3 times total

[@niecyxTM]

Then the last time on the beach like hang it up zay! Gaslighting 101

[@marleemall]

Yeah Destiny was sick and Zay did not care at all

[@Two2too]

After Mike left, Zay was trying to make Destiny jealous by saying he wanted to know other people, but there was no one there for him to go to🤣

[@runnerX007]

are ya'll ever gonna do a livestream about the finale? when you said "see you Monday" last week I thought that's what you were talking about, but maybe you just meant for the interviews?

[@pffulton]

Low energy from this guy

[@ShakedownsStory]

This man is delusional.

[@TrustinHewhoknows]

So basically he didn’t value Imani until after the fact….😢

[@zulphaprincess828]

your an amazing man but stop gaslighting her

[@summersum5881]

Let me say it forYou!!!!!! are weird there I said it..

[@itsbrittanywym5356]

The LI cameras didn’t do Zay any justice - he is fine!!

[@judithdavis9191]

OMG Zay I live in Pittsburgh PA like 15 minutes from me. OMG your are so handsome Mamamia

[@lunababy4259]

Stop embarrassing yourself he doesn’t want you at your big age

[@usernameeeeeeeee1055]

[@user-vm7ul2xn8n]

[@judithdavis9191]

OMG Mamamia. I think he is a very kind hearted very decent respectful guy. I appreciate this man. We need more like him. ❤

[@noonaame4963]

I like Zay

[@judithdavis9191]

No way Elizabeth. Zay is cool. He's so handsome OMG. He would be mine if i was his age.

[@MyAccountForCommenting]

Destiny stans have entered the chat.

[@user-kp2rv4rr5n]

We aren't about to let that lying, gaslighting alt right weirdo twist the narrative. So yeah we are here.

[@judithdavis9191]

He's a great man. I like him so much. He is by the airport in my area, it's 15 min from me. OMG you are the most amazing man. So true in your heart. Destiny did this with every man. She is a very difficult person. I seen exactly how rude destiny was to Zay. He is correct. 💯%

[@modelstar14]

Hes not going to pick you

[@Two2too]

Maybe you should have gone on the show to see if he would have picked you.

[@OCR461]

Nope.....go watch it again

[@MigueltheMogul]

Zay and Jonah were the TWO HOTTEST GUYS this season! And Mike is third

[@Jflores4411]

I feel bad for him tbh. He shoulda came before Mike and Mike should have came in to casa. He would have been a better bombshell.
