fandom. Just hours after JaNa described the breakup as 'terrible, disgusting, and disappointing,' Kenny responded with his own message, taking a more measured tone.
In a statement posted to Instagram, Kenny wrote, 'The past few days have been incredibly difficult. I've been quietly sitting with a lot of emotions and doing my best to process everything privately. Breakups are never easy, especially in the public eye. Sometimes, despite how deeply you care for someone, you come to the hard truth that the relationship was not something that could last long-term.' He concluded, 'I'll always be grateful for the time we shared and the memories we created. I release this chapter with no ill will, only a hope that JaNa's path forward brings her nothing but happiness'.

JaNa's earlier statement offered a starkly different take, thanking fans for their support but insisting that the 'reality is even more appalling' than any internet rumors and suggesting that the relationship had not been genuine since day one. She wrote:
"Hi my loves, Thank you for all your love & support. It means the world to me. As you know, Kenny and I are no longer together. Please know that I have seen all the breakup theories and none have matched up to how terrible, disgusting and disappointing it truly is. Discovering that someone you loved isn't who you thought they were and that the relationship you thought you were building hasn't been genuine since day one has been truly devastating. Thank you for respecting my privacy and please know as a child of God, I will always be okay."
The once fan-favorite couple, who captured hearts during season 6 of Love Island USA and appeared to flourish beyond the villa, called it quits in late July. While Kenny opted not to address JaNa's harsh accusations directly, he made it clear he wanted to move on without drama or resentment.

"Large Indian Pani Puri": Internet Reacts To Viral Giant Rice Ball In Japan
Recently, a food vlogger shared a video on Instagram offering foodies a peek into the preparation process of an enormous ball-shaped delicacy at the Mara Daigaku restaurant in Tokyo. The video shows a person cooking a big ball of dough in a pan filled with a generous amount of oil. With a spatula and a sieve, he continues stirring the dough ball until it takes an enormous shape of a rice ball. Once done, he transfers it into a basket and repeats the process with another dough. Next, the cook serves the riceballs to a customer. When the fluffy riceball was pressed, it broke open from the centre, revealing the hollowed middle part. The caption read, "A Giant Sesame Dango-The Largest in Japan! The dough, which started out the size of a fist, grew to twice the size of a face! At one point during cooking, a hole appeared, and the air whooshed out like a balloon deflating. I thought it was a failure, but as they kept rotating it, the hole disappeared, and it kept getting bigger! It was amazing to watch. The inside was completely hollow, with a chewy glutinous rice cake stuck to the bottom."
