Love Island fans slam Ben's 'horrible' behaviour after explosive row with Yasmin

Love Island fans have hit out at Ben's 'horrible' and 'immature' behaviour after he called Yasmin 'irrelevant' in an explosive row. The 23-year-old taxi driver was coupled up with Yasmin, 24, and they were seemingly getting close under the covers in bed before everything suddenly went south.

On Thursday night, Ben told the boys he wasn't interested in Yasmin anymore before telling her: "I feel like we went from 0 to 100 real quick, and I’m going to be taking a step back." He later admitted to Shakira he never had proper feelings for Yasmin and claimed she initiated intimacy between them while in bed and was "all over him".

Shakira went to tell Yasmin what Ben told her and Toni encouraged her to confront him for his behaviour. "Someone needs to give Ben a piece of their mind and you’re the perfect one," Toni said.

Yasmin went to speak to Ben but he kept putting her down and interrupted her to ask her: "Are you done ranting?" Yasmin remided him it "wasn't the Ben show" and the "world doesn't revolve around" him.

"It's taking everything in me not to snap," she said. While walking away from the tense row, Ben shouted at her: "This is amazing content... You've just given Love Island three weeks of content," as she branded him immature..

He didn't stop yelling after her, telling her "no man wants you in here" before claiming: "Yasmin is the most irrelevant girl I've ever met."

Fans were furious by how Ben was behaving and rushed to social media to slam the taxi driver, with one person writing on X: "Ben is genuinely disturbing, like his behaviour is horrible."

"Ben resorting to insults. Immature. Bye Felicia," another said while one reminded him: "'Yasmin’s the most irrelevant girl i’ve ever met' ben your only screen time has been whenever you disrespect one of the girls or when shakira dumped u."

"Nah ben is actually a disgusting person. the way he just spoke about yas and treated her there was genuinely one of the most uncomfortable things i’ve sat through. he is a real nasty piece of work," one posted.

Others praised Yasmin for how she handled the situation, with an impressed fan commenting: "'You’re a fucking idiot' PERIOD YASMIN DRAG HIS ASS!! He really tried blaming Yasmin for everything what a loser he’s just weird…"

Another quoted her: "'you think it’s the ben show and it’s not' oh yasmin is eating him up."
