Peacock’s ‘Love Island: All Stars’ is nothing without the drama and the changing couplings, and that is what keeps it interesting. Season 3 was no different, and while there were some mellow and nice pairs, it was the drama that took center stage. In the midst of this was when Whitney Adebayo and Yamen Sanders got together. It was not the easiest situation, as it broke some pre-established relationships and also got in the way of certain friendships, creating tension in the villa and shifting the dynamic among the contestants.
Whitney and Yamen’s Coupling Stirred a Lot of Drama in the Villa
Whitney Adebayo was one of the first contestants on the season and had some good pairings. Her first connection with Jack Keating fizzled out after a while, and then she got together with Konnor Ewudzi. He was completely taken with her, but when he came to Villa US during Casa Amor, Whitney met Yamen Sanders for the first time. There were a few stolen glances, but she was still with Konnor, and that was holding her back. However, when it was time for the beer pong snogs game, she and Yamen shared a kiss, and that is where things began.

When the other contestants returned, Konnor was disappointed to see Whitney with Yamen, and she told him that she was no longer interested in him. At the next recoupling, Yamen chose her as his partner, and it seemed they would just focus on their connection. But that was not the end of it all. When Leanne Amaning pulled Yamen for a chat, Whitney felt it was a betrayal of a friendship and confronted her. As the eliminations continued, the pressure did not seem to be off the couple, though they have stood by each other’s side through it all.
Whitney and Yamen Have Continued Their Journey Against Many Odds
Whitney and Yamen have seen some subtle testing times around them, but there has been nothing that has pulled them apart. They are one of the few contestants in the villa who have actually been seen getting to know one another and seem like they are truly fond of each other. While there is always the chance of things getting between them, so close to the finale, it seems less likely. They are also one of the few couples to have even won a date this season, and it shows they have what it takes to make it all the way. While no one knows what the future might hold, one can easily compare them to being one of the strongest couples of the season, who genuinely like each other and could take the relationship to another level as well.
