In tonight's episode of Love Island, Yasmin Pettet, 24, decided to pull her current couple partner, Ben Holbrough, 23, for a chat. Although she went in with the intention of squashing any underlying tension, things soon got heated. She accused him of saying negative things about her to the boys behind her back, as she hinted that he didn't appreciate her enough. He seemed to blame her for choosing him in the last recoupling, to which she replied: "Who else would I have chosen at the end of the day?" The private taxi driver responded: "I haven't really been feeling you to be fair." She was completely taken aback by his comments as she sarcastically snapped back: "Okay, I'm glad you're honest about that now." Flicking her hair in disgust, she added: "That's like really helpful." He then dug himself deeper as he explained: "I gave it a go because I felt like I had to." When she said that she felt like he did not really give their partnership a proper chance, he then said: "I didn't really want to, to be fair." Love Island fans claim Ben 'looks like he's being held hostage' after surprise new couple is revealed The argument seemed to escalate as she was not happy with how Ben seemed to hide his true feelings, saying: "Don't f****** waste my time." He then insulted her further with his responses "You're lucky Shea even picked you. To be fair, I think you're lucky you're even in here now to be fair. "No one rated you when you were in here let's say. You've only come out your shell because you're in a couple with me." She then accused him of being dramatic and thinking everything is 'The Ben Show'. Before storming off, she snapped back: "The world doesn't f******* revolve around you. "I'm trying so f******** hard to be nice to you and it's taking everything in me not to snap and say something sarcastic and really b*****." Yaz said: "You're so immature," as he remarked that, "no man wants you in here." No-one rated you when you were in here lets say. You've only come out your shell because you're in a couple with me. Ben Holbrough As she walked away, Ben shouted to the rest of the villa: "Eh, she's made content for the next three weeks lads." After watching what could be one of the most hard-to-watch arguments in Love Island history, fans took to social media to slam Ben in droves. Writing on X - formerly known as Twitter - one fan wrote: "Ben resorting to insults. Immature. Bye Felicia." A second claimed: "Ben is the type to only respect women he finds attractive. Nasty piece of work," along with a puke emoji. "I don't think Ben did himself any favours in the chat," noted a third viewer. As a fourth fumed: "Watching Ben speaking to Yas was one of the most uncomfortable things I've seen in a long time. It wasn't good content or drama, it was genuinely just vile." And a fifth added: "Yasmin did not deserve that from Ben. Vile!" 5 Yasmin accused her co-star of wasting her time Credit: ITV2 5 He declared that he only wanted to get to know her because he felt like he 'had to' Credit: ITV2 Love Island continues on ITV2 and is available to stream on ITVX.
