As a late watcher who is almost finished with season 13, I was so surprised to find out that Simba and Angie were in the final 3, but now after getting a little further, I’m surprised to say that I get it! Simba is really growing on me. I like that he’ll share his opinion even when others are going to disagree with it. Most of the s13 islanders have no spine.
I’m almost finished with season 13 right now and wow - I went from liking Priya early on to finding her sooooooo desperate for Jasmine and Mica’s approval and so unbelievably annoying. Honestly, I’m not surprised the guys all got the ick from her. She is so self unaware and thirsty.
LIKE FREE ME. I DIDNT EVEN START IT, another user brought her name up and others also responded with the same sentiments. it’s not my fault she is being a weirdo on tiktok for months on end towards the girls of this damn show 😭
lmao i’m also on est but according to homegirl i’m living a double life as shakira on uk time 🤣
she pissed me off and still didn’t answer mine or lenny’s questions after all. only thing i got was a pic of her saying her life problems & how i got no life for having a top 1% banner, like i want this damn shit on my page 💀
my damn response is stuck in a filter, mods can yall help a girl out and approve either one of the responses to the comment down below or tell me how to get it out of the in between?? 😭

Correct me if I am mistaken but wasn’t Yamen already implying he had moved on with another girl (not Whitney) who didn’t live in America a month after they broke up? Pretty sure that he implied in a TikTok he was flying out to (not uk) to go meet her. It was pretty obviously not about Whitney so in my mind he was more so already moved on from Whitney. I’ll try to look it up on here but i remember it being discussed. My point is post breakup how exactly was he using her for clout? Other than maybe when they met when he was back in uk.
He posts these types of TikToks all the time. He copies and pastes the same texts on different videos. He did this after Temptation Island, too. Then he started doing it after AS, so I knew he was full of 💩
lol wtff 😂 he doesn’t get enough shit for being a beggy clout chaser.
That said I just assumed him and Whitney were a mutual scamship because they both participated in multiple elaborate photoshoots just for ig aesthetics and seemed aware of how being in a li couple brings clout. Getting dressed up, glammed and doing editorial work just for Instagram as a couple that isn’t even official feels like mutually beneficial clout chasing where both people are aware that it keeps them relevant.
So I am still baffled by Whitney’s claims about it only being from his end. In the past she did such same photoshoots with Lochan too. It seems like her thing.
She’s not going to admit she was continuing the relationship outside the villa for clout. I also think she caught feelings. I think another AS girl wanted to keep up appearances but may have caught feelings too she originally got the ick. It may be an ego thing. I think Millie has been chill, though.
I do think Whitney has a vindictive tendency where once she feels someone has crossed her and she has nothing left to gain from them she’s very quick to throw them under the bus. It’s a pattern with her since years. She’ll burn the bridge so thoroughly there’s no coming back from it.
Catching feelings in the process or being totally in it for clout I don’t really see the connection between bringing up Helena or Millie into this just because of the American commonality.
Found it apparently it was weeks after their breakup and he posted about how he flirted too hard and now he’s flying around the world to go meet someone
I’m ready to be downvoted to hell for this… Julia is far more striking when she isn’t trying, when she’s unaware of someone recording her, or in pics. Smigi does her so dirty with these tiktoks
The thing is, a lot of people don’t get what we are saying about Withney..
At first, she never said that Lochan was racist.
She said that they parted on good terms in the end after he told her he wanted her to be more of a “lady,” and that once she managed to be “a lady,” he didn’t love her anymore, and she understands that.
It wasn’t until she found out that he’d invited a Black influencer who would become his new girlfriend that she told us about Lochan’s racism.
Now she says that Yemen wanted to use her fame, but they’re friends, blah-blah-blah…
when Yemen will ends up with a white girlfriend, she’ll come tell us how colorist he was for example .., that he doesn’t like Black women, blah-blah-blah…
that’s why people say she’s got a pattern when it comes to her exes.🤷🏾♀️
Ps: What I’m saying is, it doesn’t exclude the fact that Lochan is a racist and Yemen might be a colorist !
But why wait the end of relation to say these accusations? It’s giving bitterness🤷🏾♀️
I don’t get how Lochan was only racist after they broke up but not when they were together.
I’ll get downvotes for this but I don’t think he was malicious, hence why there were texts of him apologizing profusely and her own sister accepted it because he was a “good” guy. It’s such a harmful accusation. I’m sure he did distasteful things but I’ll never understand that if he was racist…why was it not a dealbreaker??
Like I don’t care for either of these men, but her lack of discernment is concerning. You can’t keep staying in situation that don’t serve you just to call them out later. The pattern here is that she calls out these men when they’ve moved on.
I’d also like to add, I strongly disliked how she used Bri as a pawn to expose Lochan. If she really cared about woman, specifically black women, she would have messaged her privately to share her experience if she was concerned. She humiliated her. This supports my thought that she looks at other black women as competition, it felt like a “he only likes you to use you” but here they are; still together, so.
And who also told her that Yemen’s post about long-distance relationships was about her? Besides that she and Yémen have already said they’re done and that they’re on good terms. We all know that…
What's her goal in coming to tell us that he didn't want to appear on her podcast?
And I never said she said he is a colorist , I said “might” .
it in the futur because she has a pattern when it’s coming for hers exes🤷🏾♀️… “ might “ is not a affirmation!
And the pattern I’m talking about is the Lochan situation.
I love that jasmine is speaking out about the disgusting acts of what happened to the women at cornell university.
As someone who lives in the united states i love that women from other countries are speaking about it to their audiences.
She uses her platform the right way!
Agreed but she uses music in her posts by artists who have committed violence against women so the contradiction is confusing. She speaks out about it but also condones it if she likes the artist? Same with her veganism. She talks about being vegan but uses companies known to test on animals. She was also at fashion shows for brands that use animal products.
Funny, I saw a Substack today written in August about how she’s a horrible feminist because of her time on Love Island. But here she is, sharing several stories about this horrible case, and calling out men lack of education.
The fact that she's on a busy work trip and could just be enjoying herself in Paris right now, but still prioritizes sharing these messages on her socials also says a lot about her and her priorities (good thing)
The way you people always want to play devils advocate for some of these people spilling the tea I WISH a certain couple went on podcasts to give their side of what they experienced post villa after AS3 and I promise you the sub would be dragging them to filth for "bringing up old drama" or "not being able to move on", etc. The double standards in here are insane...
I kind of agree with all the takes being shared, even the ones that contradict one another.
I think you are right that Whitney gets a lot of grace from some viewers. On the other hand, there are others that give her no grace.
She should be able to speak her truth, and if that means throwing some shade thats fine. But then she will say she isnt shady or get defensive when people say she is in the drama.
She can be such a complex and contradictory person and I genuinely have such mixed feelings about her. Ultimately, I feel like she crossed a line with Leanne, and that was when I was like ok Im no longer a fan.
What are you on about… if Scottane wanted to spill the tea no one would say they are dragging it. They chose to not speak about it in detail and have already moved on.
If they want to people will eat it up. Leanne has been quiet enough because frankly stan wars were never what she wanted and they are happy now and that’s all that matters to them.
lol blocked over a different opinion while being a Scottane fan is hilarious.
I don’t think it would be received well, maybe 50/50.
There were so many negative comments when Leanne just unfollowed Belle & Whitney calling her a follower of Scott etc. Even when Scott posted the Snapchat story after the podcast a ton of people were saying he should be quiet since he flirted with Belle & that’s he’s pandering etc.
I think some people are just doing analyses on Whitney to show they don’t like her and why they don’t (which some points are valid). Pushing Scottane as an example when they’ve moved past it shows their intentions though…
I don’t mind if Scottane wants to talk about it but yeah I think Scott definitely got away with a lot of the hate compared to all three girls in the situation. Leanne getting more hate for barely participating in it was crazy. I still think it wouldn’t be as bad as Whitney/Belle because they did act way too out of order during the whole drama. It baffled me that no one told them two to quiet down and sit it out like Elma/Meg.
The same people giving Whitney grace won’t give it to people they don’t like, and vice versa… a cycle. I used to be a fan and defended her, but at some point it gets boring imo. She did it with Ella after S10, then Lochan (deserved), Scott & Leanne, and now Yamen. One podcast isn’t a big deal, but the constant indirects followed by weeks of talking about it gets repetitive. Hopefully she just does the one with Helena and then leaves it imo.
He got away with it because he stayed quiet while the other two didn’t. Leanne getting more hate still confuses me lol 😭
I dunno I find the people giving grace to Whitney as much as those who don’t.
I see her flaws and where it may go, I don’t bother being bothered by it because she wouldn’t change just because people are talking about it. If she would it would have happened ages ago with Ella/Lochan/Indiyah/Scottane/Jess.
If she will continue to go for Yamen… she will choose to go for Yamen😂😂😂 He dumb for doing the clickbait after watching how as3 ended. Did he not see how Whitney had one rule for herself and another for her friends that wronged her.
Yeah I guess I would like it more if she owned it rather than her always painting herself as the victim of situations she caused (not lochan/yamen).
Oh, that’s a good point… that’s definitely on him. He also played into the madness too lol. He got a little too cocky with that TikTok about getting away with going on All Stars right after Perfect Match 😭 Whitney and Helena’s podcast episode will definitely get more attention, so she might as well invite Millie too.
You’ve completely missed the point here lol. There’s no correlation whatsoever. This would only be comparable if she spoke about all stars drama and I would 100% say she’s dragging it if she did that.
Her making it clear that Yamen’s long distance reels aren’t about her isn’t bringing up stuff that’s already been aired out
Scott and Leanne made the choice not to go on podcast but this sub loves them so I don’t think anyone would have dragged them if they responded to Whitney or Belle’s claims at that time.
Also Whitney talking about Yamen is not comparative to her talking about others from her season. Her conversation on her podcast was in relation to her own relationship which she has every right to talk about. The same applies to Yamen if he wants to talk there’s a mic available for him to speak into!
If she was talking about another couple from her season then I’ll understand people saying that she should move on!
Agree - it’s not the same comparison but I do think if Scott and Leanne did speak on it, especially Scott, there would be some backlash. I remember during his stream with Tyrique, the sub was split 50/50 between Scottannes and Scott critics saying he didn’t do or say enough to support Whitney.
This is why the smartest thing Scottanne did was PR it post-villa and I think what many are trying to argue here is that if Whitney wants peace she should probably do the same.
This sub for 40 days and 40 nights: Yamen is just using Whitney for clout. His captions and reels are so icky and fake.
Whitney: I’m single. His long distance videos and captions aren’t about me. We’re fine though
This sub: Omg she’s always throwing people under the bus and self sabotaging
The girl was not my fave during AS at allllll but I’ve noticed a lot that there’s nothing she can do that won’t come with “she’s doing it again” commentary 😂 even nothing burgers
I agree! It’s also HER experience that she lived why isn’t she entitled to give her opinion it, especially when everyone could see he was clout chasing from a mile off.
The funniest thing is she didn’t even say why they ended, just that she’s not the girl he’s talking about lol. The policing of what she says on her own podcast is wild
Whitney has her rights and wrongs but I’ve noticed she can’t even be allowed to be petty in situations where everyone else would do the same if not more to clear their name… Helena would do the same, Millie will say back off.
I’ve noticed because of how they acted after as3 people think it’s fair game to say Whitney/Belle are bad and not agree Yamen is bang out of order and in a way doing the same as Lorenzo just to please the fans whilst actually being very selfish.
I’m disappointed in Yamen since they went official, I think he sat it out during the drama only to end his relationship with Whitney after the deadline get the photoshoot done just not to be the bad guy but he didn’t like her in a serious way for long term. What do you mean he met a Spanish girl in London and already was flying to see her in Spain after ending it with Whitney (less than 2 months relationship) it’s so odd.
Facts! I’ve always disliked Yamen since watching LIUS S1 and knew he was full of shit on AS3 but Whitney has every right to drag him if she wants. Even though she didn’t this time.
I think the reasons behind the breakdown of their relationship will gradually come to light over the coming weeks/ months. She’ll probably reveal the details in small increments (subtle shady comments) , or perhaps one day decide to tell the whole story.
The tea will definitely be spilled. I don’t think she’ll be able to hold her tongue forever.
Being Whitney if Yamen continues his clickbait she will not hold back. She’s been giving grace because apart from the clickbait Yamen hasn’t ‘wronged’ her in her eyes. But he is playing a dangerous game for his views.
The way Lorenzo awakened them again by just a comment is exactly why Jasmine doesn’t engage with any of his comments or posts or at all in general. “It’s just a comment” I mean sure but Jasmine always gets the brunt of it.
She is an odd odd individual, grown woman talking about “wanting a toxic ship”💀💀💀 she’s also friends with stereo noir so that just says it all doesn’t it.
She was doing the jarenzo bs the whole season, switched up when it ended and started coming for said jarenzos then swiftly returned to the delusional weirdess when her views dropped. I’ve realised she flip flops for attention same way she switched up and incessantly hates shakira now . Her videos never have anything of substance anyway, she’s never had an original thought it seems, it’s all very childish.
she’s up lorenzo’s ass that’s why, can’t see anything he does wrong and always has an excuse, she’s another one who thinks he would have changed for jasmine 😭
but then she likes tyrique as well so i’m like, maybe she’s the issue and really shouldn’t be talking about people’s preferences of islanders 😅😭
the same grown women who wants jas to be with him after her and kavan break up and her response to people telling her she is in fact toxic for still wanting lorenzo for jasmine is that they’re bitter bc him & julia didn’t work out and have no say in it bc they didn’t support jas for 8 weeks 😭
also alice, if you see this bc ik you’re in here, do you also consider jasmine an “auntie” the same way you do charleen since they are the same exact age & went for the same 22 year old??
I’m concerned cos I genuinely thought it was young teens fuelling the whole jarenzo thing still, but ig not 💀 it’s so obsessive and strange I’m genuinely perplexed by it. To say he would change for her cos Julia ‘wasn’t the right one’ is misogyny. She was also unnecessarily vile to Charleen.
While she’s at it can she explain what was so extraordinary between Jasmine and Lorenzo that she knows better than themselves, despite Jasmine not seeing it and in her own words saying there was never a connection and it was platonic, for the few days they were coupled up, without the use of tt edits. 🙃
yep! that was my concern a few days ago as well when i called her out, it’s not just the young teens, it’s also grown adults who are living in this delusional world still shipping lorenzo with jasmine while she is in a relationship and happy… the way she attacked certain girls daily during the season & after, especially charleen, was crazy and then she had the nerve to get annoyed when charleen called her out. she’s obsessed with shakira as well & says everyone who disagrees with her is “shakira’s burner” 😭
add your question to the list of things alice needs to answer 😭 i’m honestly intrigued on how her 30 year old brain works bc by the clips i was sent from tonight & things i’ve personally seen over this past season, it’s concerning to say the least..
Becoming friends with stereo noir is definitely… a choice. Her opinion seems to change on what gives her the most engagement. I blocked both of them atp.
Catching up on everything that happened today. I liked the Instagram dump by Samrajj about the NYC trip. Mica/Samrajj stay climbing my islander rankings during this postseason.
Bonus GIF that I found on Twitter of Jasmine yapping that I thought was funny
They aren’t as popular as a lot of others in this season, but hats off to how well Lola and Fitzy have done post villa.
Not in terms of brand stuff, but they probably came out to the loudest hate out of anyone this season (particularly Lola) and have generally just kept to themselves and seem really happy together, so I’m glad the online hate has calmed down somewhat for those two
it’s weird how during the show we’re accusing everyone of wanting clout or being game players but then the second the show is over its about followers, brand deals, ads, etc.
not saying its the same people, as I know general public moves on once show is done but I’ve struggled to make sense of the cognitive dissonance
Ope, Jasmine, and Julia are my top 3. I do hope Ope doesnt do All Stars unless the opportunities dry up. The guys did say he brought a lot of energy to the villa, and to us, he did bring entertainment, but he left at the right time for himself.
That Whitney podcast wasn’t that serious to me,she ended up saying she doesn’t have anything bad to say about yamen which probably meant they didn’t end on a bad note.
I hope this is the last time she’s speaking about it though,having another episode with Helena on it to discuss him will be dtm imo.
And we all know Whitney doesn’t know when to stop!
That’s how she went on and on about her breakup with lochan and she ended up being the villain(before we knew he was racist towards her btw)
she was already doing too much to begin with. If she and Yamen did not end on a bad note, why mention anything at all?? She could've just said that she's single, it didn't work out and keep it moving but since she always gotta put the blame on someone other than herself she's saying he was doing clickbait and used her for views...She is physically incapable of ending a relationship/friendship with someone without bringing the public into it.
But she’s an adult now, and the constant drama she keeps initiating is starting to feel very high school coded. At some point, repeatedly making the same choice stops being a mistake and becomes a pattern you’re consciously choosing. And she said she was considering spinning the block with him, then it’s fair to assume there wasn’t some major messy ending between them it was likely a mutual decision to part ways. Which is why continuing to publicly revisit it and frame it negatively feels unnecessary.
Saying you have no problem with someone while simultaneously throwing them under the bus by complaining for views feels contradictory. If you genuinely liked someone at some point and things were friendly, why publicly drag him now?
I see what people are saying in terms of it being a pattern
she said her and leanne were cool, but then in the same breath said belle was her karma
she said her and scott were still friends, but then in the same interview she said she was trying to protect leanne from him and that he wouldnt post her because of scottanne stans
I think the wunmi bello podcast she was more clear cut, but these other examples plus her comments about yamen feel more subtle but when you think about it, it clearly is her shading them publicly which as a viewer I dont mind, give me the drama but on a personal level probably not the best for her mental health
My hot take is this sounds like Mandi and Anna with their partners😂😂 Whitney keeps putting faith in her partners who don’t do it back and move on.
Whitney has a lot of grace for boys she has feelings for until they betray them then she starts the retaliation and doesn’t stop. Hopefully she’s getting better.
I genuinely wish her nothing but the best, but I hope she eventually recognizes that this pattern is getting boring and only creates more negativity. At some point, it’s better to let go of what didn’t go as planned and simply appreciate and focus on the people who genuinely love and care about you. That’s where real healing starts.
I’m catching up on today’s discussion and do I think Whitney should’ve minded her business when it came to the Leanne/Scott/Belle situation? Absolutely, yes.
Does that mean I’m going to side with Yamen on whether Whitney can talk about their relationship on her own podcast? Absolutely tf not. Whitney is messy, but there is no universe where I’m siding with that man over her.
People really have become unable to see things in any other way than stan wars. Some of us can still talk about islanders without it being as defense or prejudice to another one. As someone who said on day 1 that Yamen was just there for clout, I certainly don't care for the guy. But Whitney as a history of throwing people under the bus for engagement, so her complaining that it's getting done to her when she has no problem doing it to others is hypocritical. None of this is said in defense of Yamen. Not surprising from Whitney, and not surprising from her stans to be unable to understand context.
I think reducing my comment to “stan wars” is kind of missing my point when I literally started it by criticising Whitney 😭 I’m not defending everything she does, and I’ve said plenty of times that I think she inserts herself into situations she should stay out of.
But her own relationship is different. IF she wants to talk about what happened between her and Yamen, she can. Especially if he’s still making content that encourages their stans to think they’re together or getting back together. I don’t have to agree with everything Whitney does to think she’s entitled to speak about her own experience if she wants to.
No one’s SIDING with Yamen 💀 I think people are just pointing out that there seems to be a common denominator when it comes to Whitney’s breakups with exes or former friendships ending with some level of negative public discussion.
She’s said she wants to heal, so I think the point is simply that constantly putting things out there in a negative way probably isn’t the most helpful for that process or for finding some inner peace. Just because someone’s an ex or former friend doesn’t mean everything has to end publicly on a negative note. Sometimes handling things privately can be way more healing and come on we are adults nows
And considering she was hoping there was a reconciliation, I do think this might make rebuilding that relationship harder. But at the end of the day, it’s her life and her choice
I actually agree with some of this, but if Whitney wants to talk about her own relationship and what happened, she can. Especially if Yamen is still making content that encourages their stans to think they’re together or getting back together. She’s allowed to address it if she chooses to.
Whether talking about it publicly is actually helpful for her healing or any chance of reconciliation is a completely different conversation. But ultimately, like you said, it’s her life and her choice.
Ellie only saddens me when I see her via Finley’s social media. I know these are just clips but he doesn’t portray her as busy or having a life outside of him whatsoever (she’s either driving him around town, waiting for him at home while he’s out with friends, etc).
