Love Island: Yes, Yasmin Does Have A 'Secret' Twin Sister
Lovingly nicknamed YasGPT for her deadpan delivery and perfect posture, Yasmin Pettet has fast become one of season 12's most popular islanders. Despite a rocky run navigating romances with Harry Cooksley and Ben Holbrough – both instances that saw her earn the title of 'elite islander' in voiceover star Iain Stirling's eyes - the 24-year-old is now happily coupled up with Casa boy Jamie Rhodes, 26. And if one Yas wasn't iconic enough, there's a clone on the scene. The star recently revealed during her date with Jamie that she has a twin. To anyone chronically online, this may not come as a revelation. Yas's twin Zara – who some have nicknamed 'ZaraBot' - has created a TikTok account, where she's updating fans about her sister... In one video, Zara was seen impersonating some of Yas's most iconic moments. One clip saw her burst out laughing trying to recreate the moment Yas demanded Harry 'shut the fuck up and kiss' her. Another saw Zara's impression of her sister's run-in with Ben - saying, 'Waste my money, waste whatever, don't f*cking waste my time.' 'You even sound alike,' wrote one viewer in the comments, as another added, 'I thought Yasmin got dumped and I missed a whole episode!' In another video, Zara revealed that while they may look identical, they're actually fraternal twins. This means that rather than coming from one egg that split, Zara and Yas came from two separate eggs. Fraternal twins are no more genetically alike than any other siblings born at different times. Zara explained, 'I can kind of appreciate that we look similar, maybe we sound similar, but to us, we're not. We don't see each other when we look at each other. We don't see how other people can see that we're identical.' Zara's account has certainly blown up, with over 40k followers. Responding to a comment reading, 'You need to come on as a bombshell,' she joked, 'I'm really glad that we're all on the same wavelength here, because I agree. I literally thought it [would] make great TV if they're like, 'A hot new bombshell,' and then it's me that walks out, and everyone's like 'Oh my God, she has a twin!' We are seeing the vision. But nobody called me, nobody wants me.' And while Zara might not be a bombshell, we may see her enter the Love Island villa soon. 'The meet the family episode is coming up,' she revealed, 'so fingers crossed YasGPT stays in the villa, because then I can get my five seconds of fame. No one tell her this, but I'm actually really missing her. I miss my sissy, and I would like to go on and see her.' The news of twin Zara did some as a shock to some fans, given Yas hadn't seemed to open up about her family prior to her date with Jamie. However, while Love Island seems to have kept it on the down-low in their editing, dumped islander Malisha has shared that Yas wasn't exactly keeping it a secret. Speaking on the Spill With Will podcast, Malisha said, 'She has mentioned that she had a twin. I don't know if I should be spreading her business but yeah, she has a twin. Apparently, her twin's worse than her.' Charlotte Roberts is a news and entertainment writer at Grazia UK. She spends her days covering everything celebrity, culture, and entertainment.

Love Island fans just finding out Casa Amor star was on X Factor
Love Island beauty Yasmin Broom has been turning heads in the Casa Amor villa - but she's no stranger to fame as she was in a girl band which split after lockdown Love Island stunner Yasmin Broom has spilled the beans on her pop past, revealing she was once part of a girl band. The 26-year-old Manchester beauty is among the six bombshells set to shake things up in the Casa Amor villa. But Yas isn't new to the spotlight; she graced our screens on ITV's The X Factor back in 2016. Yas was part of Four of Diamonds with Caroline Alvares, Lauren Rammell, and Sophia Saffarian, who made it to the live shows on the hit talent show. Post-X Factor, the group landed a global record deal with EMI, marking them as the first girl band to do so since the iconic Spice Girls, reports OK!. In Monday's (July 7) Love Island episode, Yas opened up to Giorgio Russo about her musical journey: "I spent a bit of time in London, like four years. "Before I was a DJ I was a singer, in a grid band. We were on The X Factor. We came eighth place." Giorgio probed about the band's breakup, to which Yas disclosed: "Lockdown, cause we just couldn't perform or anything." Fans were gobsmacked by Yas' revelation, taking to social media to express their astonishment. On X, previously known as Twitter, one viewer exclaimed: "Just found out that this Casa Amor girl was on the X Factor in the girl group Four of Diamonds in 2016. I knew I've seen her face before." Another fan reminisced: "I used to love four of diamonds." A third chimed in: "FOUR OF DIAMONDS MENTION YES YAZ #loveislanduk #loveisland." A fourth social media user exclaimed: "She was in FOUR OF DIAMONDS ? ? ? #LoveIsland." Another chimed in: "YAZ MENTIONED THE X FACTOR AND FOUR OF DIAMONDS! real ones were obsessed with them at one point #LoveIsland". After scoring a record deal, the girl group Four of Diamonds released their debut single 'Name On It', collaborating with Afrobeats star, Burna Boy, and followed up with tracks like 'Stupid Things' featuring Saweetie and 'Blind'. In 2019, the band warmed up arenas for Rita Ora's UK tour and graced television screens with appearances on Blue Peter and Britain's Got More Talent. They kept up the momentum by dropping more tunes through 2019 and 2020 and inked a new contract with Fascination Records before parting ways not long after. Since the band's split, Yasmin carved out a solo career as a DJ, spinning at numerous UK festivals including Manchester's Parklife, before jetting off to Love Island.

Love Island fans brand Islander the biggest ‘game player' – and it's one of the girls
LOVE Island devotees have credited one of the girls as being the villa's biggest 'game player' - and saluted her mad moves. Fans have commended Advertisement 4 Former villa villain Yasmin has turned things around and is now an 'iconic' game-player Credit: Eroteme 4 Yasmin has played the game 'like a man' and fans are here for it Credit: Eroteme Viewers took to Reddit to applaud 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. Advertisement Read more "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." Advertisement Most read in Love Island "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." Advertisement "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." Advertisement "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 Due to her outrageous antics, fans were convinced Advertisement She asked , and talked non stop about sex - despite saying . 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.
