ITV2 Love Island's Yewande says couples are fake and islanders are playing games

Axed islander Yewande has spoken out on the "game playing" couples in the villa.

Yewande left the villa tonight, after Danny coupled up with new girl Arrabella. 

After leaving the villa Yewande said that there were several couples playing games.

The scientist said: "I think there are a couple of people in there playing a game – a lot of people aren’t there for the right reasons. I’d probably say there are only two genuine couples. Michael and Amber and Curtis and Amy."

Yewande also had some harsh words about Danny and Arabella. 

She said: "A bombshell coming in, it’s very hard and it’s difficult to know their intentions. I hate it when a bombshell comes in saying ‘I want to get to know everyone’, because that is a lie. You know who you’re going for.

"She knew she wanted Danny. I feel like if he does get to know her, it’s not going to work.

"There are so many factors – they’re so different, and the age gap. You have to be realistic. He’s just starting his life – he’s only 21. They are in two different phases of their lives. In the villa, it’s very easy to forget."

But Yewande had nothing but praise for Amber and  Scouser Michael's relationship.

She said: "I love the way it started because the minute I walked in and coupled up with Michael, he said ‘there’s something about Amber that I love so much.’ I was friends with Amber and she was like ‘he’s not my type.’

"Gradually you could see her getting nervous around him. The way it’s developed is so organic, which is the way it normally happens on the outside. It’s so magical to watch it happen."

Yewande said she would love to go back in the villa to find love and continue the friendships she'd made.

Summing up her time in the villa Yewande said: "I really believe that everything happens for a reason and I wouldn’t change anything. If I did, I wouldn’t know the outcome and I wouldn’t know if it would be any better or worse.

"It was a rollercoaster of emotions, up and down. I learnt so much about myself. I made amazing friends and I wouldn’t change anything.

"The biggest thing I learnt about myself was that I can open up romantically and I can show a little bit of affection, which is something I struggled with in the past."

Yewande appears on Love Island: Aftersun on Sunday 30 June at 10pm on ITV2.
