Blu Chegini, 26, is following pretty much everyone from his series on Instagram - except for one person.
The hunky former Islander does not follow Yasmin Pettet on the photo-sharing app.
This is surprising because Blu and Yasmin had a very flirty conversation before she went exclusive with her man Jamie Rhodes.
"I was interested to meet you because I feel like you are a good looking boy and we're kind of similar in a sense," Yasmin said to Blu when he made his return.
"You have this sexual energy and so do I," she went on.
"I like it when you stick it on," he responded.
"You can stick on me for sure."
He later offered to give Yas a 'little tour' of his mum's sex shop in Marbella.
He even talked her through the kinds of toys that are sold there.
The chat did not go unnoticed by Jamie, who found himself trying not to rise to the bait at the time.
Watch the tragic moment Yasmin's family told her white lie about cat Miaow Miaow in the Love Island villa
But despite his flirty conversation with Yas, Blu doe not follow her.
Though he surprisingly follows Jamie.
It is also shocking because he had an issue with Toni Laites, but is following her and Cach Mercer after their triumphant win on Monday.
This comes after we revealed the penultimate week in the iconic Love Island villa left 1,153 fans up in arms over " bullying behaviour".
Love Island's biggest Ofcom complaints
Love Island has been hit with thousands of complaints over the years - here are the most moaned about moments
Dani's tears: In 2018, Ofcom received 2,644 complaints when Dani Dyer was left in floods of tears over Jack Fincham during the Casa Amor.
Viewers felt the show had been manipulated to make it appear Jack was going to cheat, when in fact he wasn't. And poor Dani didn't learn the truth for days.
Maura fury: Although she later won over the public, Maura Higgins got off to a bad start in 2019. After arriving as a bombshell, she made a beeline for Tommy Fury - who was coupled up with Molly-Mae Hague - and tried to kiss him while straddling him on a daybed. 709 people accused her actions of being 'sexual harassment'.
Faye explodes: The 2021 series of Love Island remains the most complained series about yet. 4,330 complaints were made to Ofcom after Faye Winter received a postcard from Casa Amor, which appeared to show her fella Teddy Soares kissing a bombshell.
But a whopping 24,763 complaints flooded in when Faye came face-to-face with Teddy again. Faye's shocking outburst even sparked a reaction from male domestic abuse charity, ManKind Initiative, who branded her 'unacceptable'.
Bish bash: The following year, the fallout from Movie Night sparked 3,617 Ofcom complaints. Fans of the show were horrified by Luca Bish's harsh reaction when Gemma Owen was shown speaking to bombshell Billy Brown.
Muggy Mitch: Almost 1,000 Ofcom complaints flooded in from viewers unimpressed with Mitchel Taylor's treatment of Abi Moores.
They felt he was 'targeting' her and even urged Love Island bosses to check on Abi's 'mental health and welfare'.
The complaints about bullying were linked to Toni and Shakira, Meg, Dejon and Blu.
618 viewers logged complaints for this episode.
The following day on July 31, the majority of complaints related to Dejon's behaviour towards Meg.
A total of 289 viewers took their concerns to the regulator in the form of a complaint.
Meanwhile, on August 1, fans were concerned about one of the couples again.
The majority of complaints for this episode related to Dejon's behaviour towards Meg.
The total number of complaints on this day were 144.
Just last week we reported how Ofcom had received 9,000 complaints for the previous week.
In total 9,339 contacted Ofcom with their concerns.
While 298 complaints related to the way Blu spoke to Toni and 55 complaints were about Megan returning to the villa.

Olly Murs shares the reason he can now 'relate to his mum's sadness' over his 15-year estrangement from his twin brother Ben
Olly Murs has revealed that becoming a parent has helped him to 'relate to his mum's sadness' over his estrangement from his twin brother Ben. The singer, 40, has not spoken to his sibling since he missed his wedding in late 2009 to take part in The X Factor semi-finals. And in a joint interview with his wife Amelia for The Sunday Times Magazine, Olly shared that since they welcomed their first child, daughter Madison, last year, he's had greater understanding of the impact the fall-out had on the family. He said: 'Now I'm a parent I can relate more to my mum's sadness that my twin brother, Ben, and I have been estranged since 2009, though I've got nothing but love and respect for him.' 'This year I've been on tour and I've got a new album out later in 2025. I joined Robbie Williams on stage in June and it was great to catch up with him — he's been like a big brother to me over the years.' Olly and Amelia are set to welcome their second child together later this year, after tying the knot in 2023. The singer added that he's planning to be much more present this time around, after leaving home just days after Madison's birth to support Take That on tour. He said: 'Two days after Madison was born I had to go on tour supporting Take That. Amelia had lots of support around her as her mum came to stay and my parents live near us in Essex, but it was hard and I felt guilty. 'We both understand that my work isn't like a regular job — but second time round I'm not going anywhere.' The Dear Darling hitmaker previously shared the long-term impact his fall-out with his brother has had on him, admitting he 'struggles with loneliness.' He told The Times last year: 'When you've been in the womb with someone, you struggle with loneliness. I had to deal with it when my twin and I went on our separate lives. 'I was desperate to be around people, could not sit in a room alone.' At the time, Olly did not give any indication of whether he and his brother will ever be on speaking terms again but did share that his life goal is now to be the best husband and father he can be. He added: 'My aim in life is to be a great husband and father - that's where my future lies. I'd love my career to continue as it is, but when you get married and become a dad, you just want to be the best for them.' In a joint interview with his wife Amelia, Olly shared that since they welcomed their first child last year, he's had greater understanding of the impact the fall-out had on the family Following the fall-out, Ben also distanced himself from his parents and their sister. On their feud, Ben told Daily Mail in January 2017: 'I was very close to my parents, but fame and greed changed everything. 'My parents wanted this bright, shiny Olly with the money who can give them the VIP lifestyle. They liked hanging around with Simon Cowell, or going to Bon Jovi concerts – they loved their VIP selfies. 'I'm not interested in anything like that, I have a lovely life with my wife and kids.' But Olly is still keen to make amends with his brother at some point. On burying the hatchet, the media personality explained: 'I still want to make that change with my brother.' Asked by Lorraine Kelly in 2018 if he though the rift could ever heal, Olly said: 'I hope so, of course, it's mad because every year I think about it, (will it be) nine years, 10 years. 'I did text him for his birthday but he changed his number. Christmas has never been the same.'

We're one of the world's tallest family, everyone is over 6ft – people stare but it earns us over £7m a year
AN ENTIRE family – ranging between 6ft 3in and 6ft 10 in height – have revealed how they are now making millions together as the 'tallest family' online. Marie Temara is known for her impressive frame, which sees her pull in $10m (£7.4m) a year. 6 6 But the influencer is not the only one in her family capitalising on the unique trait – nor is she the tallest. Marie's mum, 63-year-old Christine (6ft 5in), used to work as an emergency operator but now spends her days taking snaps of her UK men's size 13 trotters to sell online. Meanwhile, basketball brothers Troy, 27, and Shane, 29 – who are the tallest at 6ft 10in and 6ft 9in – are in competition with each other to see who can bank the most bucks. Right now, Troy is in the lead with $100,000 (£74k) annual earnings compared to Sean's $50,000 (£37k) a year. Dad, and former electrician, Michael, 65 (6ft 3in), quit his job after making $50,000 (£37k) sharing behind-the-scenes content with his family 'It's been my dream to live and work with my family and see them every day – I love it,' said Marie, who has three million Instagram followers, @marietemara. 'There's a bit of rivalry between my brothers, but because I'm a woman, I'm expected to make the most money – since short kings love a tall girl. 'They're just grateful to benefit from their height in any way they can. 'We definitely didn't have that much money growing up. 'It was pretty hard, but my parents did a really good job of giving us everything that we needed. I used to hate my height but now it's a niche that rakes me in £100k a year 'They just never had any money to buy anything for themselves and always put us first. 'That's why I love to see them doing so well now – and having so much fun with it!' Although Marie's content is on the saucier side, she makes family-friendly videos with her parents and brothers. The model was the inspiration for the family's success, having first signed up to OnlyFans four years ago after quitting her $100,000 a year accounting job. Christine and Michael were both making $35,000 (£26k) a year in their respective 9-to-5 jobs when they signed up to the site. She said: 'My parents both hated their jobs. 'They were overworked and underpaid. 'My mom was always stressed out with the long shift work hours, and my dad was sick of driving over two hours to work every day for minimum wage. 6 6 'I'm really lucky that they have all been supportive since day one. 'At first, it was just me filming by myself, but I was living at home and my parents were always around, so they would pop into the background or help me set up shots. 'Eventually, I started asking them to join in little skits, and they were such naturals; it just made sense to keep going. 'I thought they'd say no or be embarrassed, but honestly, they were all up for it straight away. 'My mum was excited, my dad thought it was hilarious, and my brothers saw it as a fun challenge. 'One of the first videos we did together was a height comparison where we all stood in a line, tallest to shortest – which is still pretty tall 'We also did a skit where we pretended to struggle to fit into regular-sized furniture, and people went crazy for it. 'That's when we realised, 'Okay, this could be something big'. 'We're now known as the tallest family online.' Known as the 'tallest family online', Marie and the others usually make videos to show off their height – such as reaching for items, bumping their heads on door frames or trying to fit into tiny cars. They also do other pranks, dances and skits about everyday struggles that tall people face. Marie, from Florida, US, likes spending time with her parents so much that they've recently purchased two properties next door to each other. The model's mansion set her back $2m (£1.5m), while the neighbouring house where Christine and Mike live cost $700,000 (£520k). Marie added: 'Earning this much is something we never thought would happen. 'So we're very grateful and happy. 'It's all light-hearted and relatable, and our followers seem to love the family content too. 'Sometimes it doesn't feel real – but it's a great feeling to be able to provide for my family, retire them and financially set up my future for myself and generations to come.' 6

Popstar behind iconic 00s hit looks unrecognisable as she dons massive shades and hotpants for Boardmasters performance
THIS NOUGHTIES legend has proved she still knows how to bring the hits with a killer set at Boardmasters festival. First shooting to fame in her early 20s, this now 47-year-old has become known for her unique voice, catchy chart-toppers and unique sense of style. 9 9 Touching down in Newquay, Cornwall, this weekend for the three day event, the singer took to the stage in an all-green outfit composed of a khaki-coloured halterneck with hotpants and furry green shawl. Completing the look with a pair of white cowboy boots with silver flower adornments, this star looked every inch a Maneater as she took to the stage. Have you guessed who it is yet? It's Nelly Furtado! The Canadian songstress is beloved for her singles including I'm Like a Bird, Say It Right, Maneater and Promiscuous. She has two multi-platinum albums in the UK – Woah, Nelly and Loose – as well as two number one singles. First launching her career with the legendary I'm Like A Bird, Nelly has become one of the defining performers of the early 2000s. Appearing before Central Cee headlined the event, Nelly became a must-watch set as she gave it her all on stage, hiding her eyes behind tinted sunglasses and wearing her hair in a super long and slick ponytail. Last year, she released her seventh studio album, aptly titled 7, which she worked closely on with her eldest child. Since first topping the charts, Nelly has become a mother of three – a 21-year-old daughter Nevis with Jasper Gahunia, and a seven-year-old daughter and six-year-old son with rapper Hodgy. 'I'm lucky [Nevis] comes in the studio with me and helps me out as well,' she told the Call Her Daddy podcast in November last year. 'I didn't even recognise her!' say pop fans as 00s star dances on TikTok 'There's nothing better than having that creative connection with your child and being able to work on something special together.' She added: 'It's been a journey—one we've taken together. Just like working on it together and growing in the process: Me rediscovering my passion for music in the studio, and her kind of discovering her own passion for it.' 9 9 9 9 9 9
