Viewers took to Reddit to applaud brunette bombshell Yasmin Pettet.
One admiring fan wrote: "Yasmin is playing the game like a man. This is why I love her. Her joking with Dejon about a threesome, followed by the conversations about sex.
"Meg is so angry, Yasmin and Toni are unbothered and think she is being ridiculous. (I agree).
"The Beer Pong game where she kissed both Dejon and Harry? Ben? Women totally bothered and upset that she had the audacity. She shrugs and is like, it's what the card asked me to do.
"It's when she pulls Shea the next day for a chat to 'check in' and he's all pi**y that she's mugged him off and embarrassed him, despite them being open and ok with getting to know other people. She could have done it 'more respectful'.
"I love it for her. Like I'm really waiting for her to ask one of the men if they are on their period or if they are having 'big feelings'."
A second added: "Conversely, having got to know her more I think Yas was playing a role and just saying stuff for shock factor/to spook the girls when she said about coming between married couples and hasn't really done it.
"Whereas I 100% believe Helena would target a married man because she gets so much validation from feeling she's been 'chosen' over another woman."
"Even if any of what Yas says is true you can tell it doesn't come from a male-centric place whereas Helena it's all for the men.
"It seems like Yas says and does what she does because it's what she wants to do in the moment, where Helena does things because it's what she thinks it's what guys want.
Love Island fans have worked out 'real reason' behind Conor's shock brutal recoupling decision
"Yas hasn't changed too much but Helena continues to get more and more sexual as the show goes on because it's getting attention," noted another.
A fourth penned: "I will be obsessed for life if she reveals she is doing it for research or a thesis."
"And the irony is she's turned out to be one of the biggest girls' girls in there and she's not even trying to force that image that's just who she is," noted another.
"I love watching her, she's become one of my favourite all-time Islanders.
"Came in with no mission of gaining the 'favourite girl' by being a 'girls' girl, nice girl', and instead had her guns blazing with blunt comments embracing her sexuality and unbothered by harsh p***es aimed to humiliate and 'tame' her to be more trad.
"I don't think she expected to go far in the game and was probably anticipating to be dumped earlier, but here she is almost to the finish line of the game."
"Will she find love there? Probably not. Was she looking for love in there? Probably not.
"Did she go on for influencer fame? Probably not with just 27K Instagram followers and 10 total posts and no TikTok posts. Did she go on Love Island just to experience it? I think so," remarked a fan.
Show fans previously accused her of being planted by producers, ranting 'she CANNOT be real!'
Due to her outrageous antics, fans were convinced Yasmin was a Love Island 'mole' and had been put in the villa by producers to stir things up.
She asked Dejon for a threesome, propositioned Harry and talked non stop about sex - despite saying she had only slept with two men.
Fans previously branded Yasmin "the real villain" of the villa and slammed her when Shea picked her over Toni and Malisha.
They were called out as being "fake" and should have been "sent home".
Not too much is known about Londoner Yasmin, as she's wiped her social media accounts.
The 24-year-old hails from London and works as a commercial banking executive — a career that sets her apart from many of the Love Island 2025 contestants.
Yasmin said previously she is 'looking for a guy who is fit, has a nice body and who is funny with a bit of banter'.
LOVE ISLAND CONTINUES TONIGHT AT 9PM ON ITV2 AND ITVX.
