"Love Island" UK Star Wins Fans With Her Views On Motherhood
This season of Love Island UK is a chaotic mess (per usual), but through it all, there's one person I've loved as a fan since the beginning: Yasmin.
From standing on business when she's disrespected to schooling everyone with her immaculate posture, she is The People's Princess.
However, there is one recent episode that made me love her even more than I already do, which I didn't think was possible. And it's none other baby challenge!
The baby challenge — where each couple takes care of a "baby" for a day — is, in my opinion, one of the worst episodes of the series because the show is called Love Island, not Baby Island!!!!!
And though that might seem like a small thing because there are plenty of women and men who don't want to have children (a 2023 Pew Research survey found that 57% of men say they want kids, and only 45% of women do)... Living a child-free life isn't something that is often talked about on a reality TV dating show where the goal is to hopefully find someone to marry. But thanks to Yas, and a couple of the other girls, the Mallorca winds on Love Island are changing.
And it wasn't that she just said funny jokes about not wanting to have kids!
And viewers at home absolutely LOVED the child-free representation they were seeing on screen:
And the best part? Yas wasn't the only woman who said she doesn't want kids! Megan also wrote down that she wants "0" kids, and Toni is in the same boat (for now, at least).
So, congrats to Love Island for having one of the best baby challenge episodes in YEARS!

And, of course, you can watch this episode and every other episode of Love Island UK on Hulu anytime!
