However, one face removed from the drama is scaffolder Shea Mannings.
The 25-year-old from Bristol was dumped from the villa in previously aired scenes.
Taking to Instagram, Shea addressed his time on the show - while answering fans' questions.
During a Q&A in his story, one fan asked the villa alum: "Any regrets from going on the show?"
Shea replied by writing: "Picking Yas in the recoupling", accompanied by a laughing emoji.
But it got even more awkward when Shea was tasked with shaking the hand of the islander he believed was playing the biggest game.
His co-stars were stunned when he reached across to shake Yasmin's hand.
He added: 'Maybe she's put it on me to try and stay in the villa.
'I'm not sure, we'll have to see how that goes.'

Yasmin didn't deny Shea's shock claim and simply replied: 'Fair enough.'
Elsewhere, another follower asked the ex-islander: "Why did you never pull Shakira for chats?"
He answered: "We had quite a few chats. The producers just chose not to show that for whatever reason."
While appearing on spin-off Love Island: Aftersun following his elimination, Shea reflected on having been attracted to Shakira.

Love Island star reveals they are expecting a child in surprise update as they share adorable photos
Love Island star Theo Campbell revealed he is expecting a child in a surprise update on Tuesday. The hunk, 35, who first entered the villa back in 2017, shared a series of adorable photos to Instagram to announce the happy news. In a stunning photoshoot with his girlfriend Olivia Kaiser, 33, they posed by a lake with Olivia displaying her growing bump. The couple, who competed together on MTV's The Challenge: Battle of the Eras last year, revealed their baby is due December 5. They captioned the update: 'Our sweetest little secret. We've been enjoying some time off the grid — embracing the quiet, the love, and the magic of what's to come. 'Now it's time to let you in on the journey… Our little one is arriving soon.' The news comes one year after the couple first went Instagram official with their relationship. Theo also shares a son called Aries, who was born in February 2021, with influencer Sapphire Yhnell. At the time Theo revealed he 'wasn't expecting' to become a father at his age as he discussed becoming a parent for the first time. The reality star, who was 29 at the time, said that he had thought he'd wait until he was '35 or 36' before having children but that being a dad 'isn't as scary as he thought it would be'. Speaking on FUBAR Radio with hosts Bobby Norris and Brooke Odun, he opened up about his son. He said: 'Do you know what? I wasn't expecting it at first. I've always said, I was going to wait until I was 35, 36 and then just knock out three in a row. 'But it's not as scary as I thought. I thought it was the hardest thing in the world, the scariest thing, the biggest thing. It is the biggest thing, but it's not that hard. It's not that scary, you know?' The star kept the pregnancy a complete secret until the birth, something which 'wasn't easy', but admitted that he's pleased he was able to do so. Theo went on to explain that Sapphire, who is also mum to five-year-old son Tai, lives with their son in Wales. He said: 'My baby, he lives in Wales and I live in London. So on Sunday's I have to travel 130 miles, about two hours.' He revealed last year he was set to appear in the show's All Stars spin-off but was axed just hours before entering the villa. Theo even filmed the show's glossy promo before reportedly being downgraded from the main cast to a bombshell and replaced by fellow hunk Luis Morrison. He slammed the producers for 'wasting his time' on Friday in a since deleted social media post. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, he shared a clip of Kaz Kamwi following her shock dumping from the villa on Tuesday - amid the show's diversity row. Theo wrote: 'Imagine wasting 5 days of your life after being pursaded to start LI [Love Island] filming and the rest, for them to say a day before you're supposed to flay out, nah just come in 2 weeks... huh? No thanks'.

Gregg Wallace hit by 50 allegations claiming star pulled down trousers and groped colleague as he's fired by BBC
GREGG Wallace has been hit by misconduct claims from 50 new people, it was sensationally revealed last night. They include allegations that the star - now sacked as MasterChef presenter - groped one show worker and pulled his trousers down in front of two others. 5 5 One of the two described it a 'predatory' encounter. She also claimed a boss dismissed her report of the alleged incident as she was over 16 and 'not being Jimmy Savile-d '. Another woman claimed Wallace groped her bottom while he spoke to ex co-host John Torode at the bar, during a wrap party in 2013. The bombshell claims emerged after a nine-month sexual misconduct investigation into the star, who denies any wrongdoing. And the claims come after Wallace, 60, stepped down as MasterChef presenter last November. He exited the show after 13 people accused him of making inappropriate sexual comments. Wallace - who has also fronted Celebrity Masterchef, Masterchef: The Professionals and Saturday Kitchen - came out fighting yesterday after it emerged he had been axed. In a lengthy online statement he insisted he had been cleared of 'the most serious and sensational accusations'. On Instagram, where he has 220,000 followers, Wallace said: 'After 21 years of loyal service to the BBC, I cannot sit in silence while my reputation is further damaged. 'The most damaging claims were found to be baseless after a full and forensic six-month investigation.' Gregg Wallace offers advice to fans for £200 But hours after Wallace's online post, BBC News revealed the new claims against him during a probe by independent law firm Lewis Silkin. It was hired by MasterChef production company Banijay to conduct a thorough investigation. The BBC said last night it had not seen the Banijay report. But its story said the corporation had been contacted by people across a range of shows and settings. Most allegations were said to centre on inappropriate sexual comments, though 11 women are said to have accused him of inappropriate sexual behaviour. That behaviour is said to include groping and touching. The allegations raise fresh questions for the Beeb and Banijay over their oversight of Wallace's alleged behaviour and their duty of care to staff. One woman - called Alice by the BBC - claims Wallace took his trousers down in front of her in a dressing room. She accused TV veteran Wallace of 'disgusting and predatory' behaviour. Another, using the name Sophie, says she was left feeling 'absolutely horrified' and 'quite sick' when he allegedly groped her. Others who contacted the corporation with fresh claims about the star include a participant on Saturday Kitchen, which Wallace hosted in 2002-2003. The morning cooking show was, at that time, produced in-house by the BBC. During a dinner ahead of filming in 2002, 'Sophie' claimed Wallace put his hand under the table and onto her groin, saying: 'Do you like that?' Another woman is a university student who says she met Wallace in a nightclub with friends in 2013. She claims that - after she asked to take a photo with him - he reached under her skirt and grabbed and groped her bottom. The BBC reported that another woman alleged that Wallace put his hand up her dress at an industry ball in 2014 and groped her. And a junior worker claims that - in 2012 - Wallace dropped his trousers in front of her. She alleges he was not wearing underwear. 5 A string of men have also claimed they witnessed Wallace making inappropriate sexual comments, it was reported. A former male cop has also said he tried to raise concerns about Wallace's sexually inappropriate language to the BBC in 2023 but was stonewalled. And other recent claims include a 19-year-old MasterChef worker who says she tried to complain about Wallace's comments about her body in 2022. The BBC said many of the women were young freelancers who felt unable to complain about Wallace's behaviour at the time amid fears it would hamper their careers. But one - 'Alice' - said she voiced concerns to bosses but claims they were dismissed. She worked on MasterChef between 2011 and 2013 when she was in her 20s. At the time, the show was produced by Shine, a company now owned by Banijay. She alleged that Wallace once asked her into his dressing room, saying he needed help getting into a black-tie outfit. She claimed he pushed her down onto a sofa, pulled his trousers down and told her he wasn't wearing any underwear, the BBC said. She reported what had happened, she says, but was told by a senior production member: 'You're over 16, you're not being ' Jimmy Saviled '.' Gregg Wallace - MasterChef scandal in Brief GREGG Wallace has stepped down from his MasterChef hosting role after a probe into alleged inappropriate behaviour. But what's the situation? Regular MasterChef host Gregg Wallace is currently the subject of a probe after an investigation was launched into his alleged misconduct over a number of years. Gregg has been accused of making sexual remarks to 13 colleagues including Beeb anchor Kirsty Wark - accusations he denies. The 60-year-old has now stepped away from the BBC show while historical misconduct allegations against him are investigated. Yet the former greengrocer spoke out on social media to blast the "women of a certain age" who he claimed were behind the allegations. The cooking show's production company, Banijay UK, has said law firm Lewis Silkin would lead the investigation into Wallace's alleged misconduct. Alice said she felt let down and left with the impression she should 'be grateful and get on with it' due to her lowly role. She has contributed to the Banijay inquiry, the BBC said. A woman - 'Anna' - claims Wallace pulled his trousers down in front of her as she worked on a photo shoot with him in 2012. The alleged incident occurred when they were alone together in a dressing room area - and she could see he was not wearing underwear. Wallace is said to have changed into the clothes she was holding from before she left. She also claimed Wallace made lewd comments and was 'touchy-feely'. Anna said she felt 'undermined' , unable to complain due to her junior position. She told the BBC she had spoken up after being angered by Wallace's Instagram video last year which saw him claim allegations had come from 'a handful of middle-class women of a certain age'. The Beeb reported her as saying: 'Is he saying it was OK to behave that way with younger women, like I was at the time?' Another MasterChef worker, Sophie, claims she was groped by the presenter at a wrap party at the end of the 2013 series. She described the incident - which she claims happened as she was talking to Wallace and then co-host John Torode - he was about as 'a full-handed squeeze'. She added: 'I turned around and it was Gregg.' There is no suggestion Mr Torode was aware of the incident. Again, the woman feared complaints would be ignored. Sophie has also contributed to the Banijay inquiry. Some new allegations happened away from television - one of them in the mid-to-late 2000s in Nottingham during a book tour. Publicist 'Esther' said Wallace pushed his way into her hotel room, took off his clothes, and then asked her: 'Exactly what is it that you do?' She says she was shocked and made it clear she was not interested, telling him: 'That's not part of my job.' Esther claims he then says he climbed into her bed and fell asleep - prompting her to sleep at the edge of the bed, with her clothes on. She claims that - when he woke up - Wallace put his hand on her bottom and commented that she had a 'nice arse'. She ordered him to leave, and he did, it was reported. Esther did not complain at the time, but has contributed to the Banijay inquiry. Yesterday, Wallace said: 'I will not go quietly. I will not be cancelled for convenience. I was tried by media and hung out to dry well before the facts were established.' He also accused the BBC of 'peddling baseless and sensationalised gossip masquerading as properly corroborated stories'. On Instagram, he said: 'I recognise that some of my humour and language, at times, was inappropriate. For that, I apologise without reservation. But I was never the caricature now being sold for clicks.' The BBC News report also said some people had got in touch to insiated Walace's behaviour amounted to 'jokes' and 'banter'. But a cameraman, who worked on the BBC show Eat Well For Less in 2016, said he heard Wallace make inappropriate comments in front of the production team. This is alleged to have included asking a gay female director about her 'lesbian clothing'. He said: 'It's not banter, it's not how you should behave in a professional workplace,' the BBC reportded. A recent report into the BBC found that a small number of its stars and managers 'behave unacceptably' at work, and that bosses often fail to tackle them. In response, the broadcaster said it would introduce reforms, and its chairman Samir Shah said he would draw 'a line in the sand'. Banijay has said that it will not comment on the accusations until the report is published.
