Love Island's most outrageous conspiracy theory yet as fans claim one star is an 'AI bot' after string of 'glitchy' moments - but have YOU noticed them?
Love Island fans have shared what might be the most outrageous conspiracy theory in the show's history.
Viewers of the ITV2 dating show have claimed that one of the Islanders is an ' AI bot' and was suffering a string of 'glitchy' moments while in the iconic villa.
The sexy singleton in question is none other than Yasmin Pettet, 24.
The commercial banking executive, who is currently coupled up with Shea Mannings, 25, entered the villa alongside Emily Moran, 24, and Malisha Jordan, 24, earlier this week and has certainly ruffled a few feathers amongst the cast.
She has gone after 25-year-old Megan Moore's man Dejon Noel Williams, 26, and also laid it on thick with 29-year-old Helena Ford's beau Harry Cooksley, 30.
But her perfect posture while chatting with her co-stars and standing by the firepit has raised a few eyebrows.
One fan took to TikTok to share the bizarre theory with a selection of clips and the caption: 'Guys I'm scared... I think she's AI.'
Meanwhile others have taken to X, formerly known as Twitter, to say the same thing.
'Yas is actually AI.'
'This Yas girl gotta be AI.'
'I saw someone say Yasmin is AI and bro she is literally not real.'
'Yasmin is the certified first Love island AI icon #Loveisland #loveislanduk.'
'Are we sure Yasmin isn't AI robot? #LoveIsland.'
Another said on Instagram: 'AI Yasmin, we needed her.'
Yasmin has been bringing the drama this season - and fans are loving it.
The beauty left Dejon shocked when she asked if he'd consider a threesome with her and Toni Laites, 24.
She's also not been afraid to get to know other guys - including Harry.
The pair snogged during last night's episode, leaving his girl Helena fuming, as well as her man Shea.
During a recent challenge Yasmin kissed two other boys during the course of the game.
When she pulled Shea for a chat around the fire pit to check in, he told her: 'You made me look like a mug.'
Yasmin replied: 'Yeah, that wasn't my intention, it was just a game that I felt everyone else was playing way too safe.'
One wrote on Instagram: 'Yasmin speaks the truth tho and she is gorgeous.'
'I love Yasmin.'
'Ngl I actually loveee this girl!! Yasmin.'
'The Yasmin show... is exactly what she wanted and she's certainly got it!'
Before entering the villa, Yasmin said: I'm looking for a guy who is fit, has a nice body and who is funny with a bit of banter.'
When asked what her ick is, she revealed: 'A guy that's stingy.'
Love Island airs on ITV1 and is available to stream on ITVX.

AGE: 26
FROM: London
OCCUPATION: Semi-pro footballer and personal trainer
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? Someone who is beautiful on the inside and out, looks after themselves and is healthy
CLAIM TO FAME? My dad being an ex-professional footballer. I've met all kinds of famous people through him. When I was younger it was weird because he was just my dad, but we'd go to a game and fans were asking for photos. I've met David Beckham, he was really nice.
Megan Moore
NAME: Megan Moore
AGE: 25
FROM: Southampton
OCCUPATION: Payroll specialist
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? I'd like to meet someone who is tall, with a nice tan, nice eyes and a nice smile. He needs to have a good fashion sense and a really good, funny personality that I can get on with

NAME: Tommy Bradley
AGE: 22

OCCUPATION: Landscape Gardener
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? A girl who is very ambitious, with a big personality, caring, but also someone that doesn't take themselves too seriously. I don't know if that's asking for too much, but I want a bit of everything. I haven't got a specific type in terms of looks, though.

WOULD MAYA HIRE YOU FOR YOUR FLIRTING SKILLS? I think she'd hire me because I'm a good flirt. I always ask guys on a night out to guess which country I'm originally from. If they get it right, they can get my number.
But they never guess correctly so it works really well if you don't want to give a guy your number. I'm originally from Guinea Bissau. If they're close and I really fancy them, I'll give them my number anyway.

FROM: Gloucester

OCCUPATION: Cabin Crew
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? Somebody funny or Northern. I feel like Northern people have much more banter than Southerners. If you look through my previous dating history, you'll see I clearly go for personality. You can pretty much laugh me into bed.
WOULD MAYA HIRE YOU FOR YOUR FLIRTING SKILLS? I would say hire but then quickly fire soon after. It would only be a temporary contract.
NAME: Megan Forte Clarke
AGE: 24
FROM: Dublin
OCCUPATION: Musical theatre performer and energy broker
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
Someone who doesn't take themselves too seriously and has a sense of humour. If they're not bad looking, that's always a plus.
I love a boy that's a bit pasty, like Timothée Chalamet. I don't mind scrawny, or a bit of a 'dad bod'. I'm 5ft1 so any height really.
CLAIM TO FAME? Me and my friends made a Derry Girls TikTok for Halloween and it went a bit viral around Brighton. Sometimes I get stopped in the street about it. I've also done Panto.

OCCUPATION: Construction Project Manager
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? Someone who is tall, charming, witty, with big arms, a good smile and just really funny.

WOULD MAYA HIRE YOU FOR YOUR FLIRTING SKILLS? Definitely hire. I ask girls if they want to go halves on a baby. It doesn't work, but it gets them laughing. It's an ice-breaker, not a serious question of course!
NAME: Toni Laites
AGE: 24
FROM: Connecticut
OCCUPATION: Las Vegas Pool Cabana Server
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? I'm looking for darker hair, definitely muscular but not too muscular. Super fit. Clean hair cut. Someone that can make me laugh - I'm super outgoing. And someone that's quite active. Maybe one day we could start our own family together.
I WANT TO DATE A BRITISH GUY BECAUSE... I've lived in three different states and I'm still single. It's time to try something new! I have some British friends and they're pretty charming. I think all Americans love a good accent. British men are just more polite, with better manners.
NAME: Shea Mannings
AGE: 25
FROM: Bristol
OCCUPATION: Scaffolder
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? She needs to be bubbly and we need to have that initial spark. She needs to have a nice personality - like I think I have - so that we match together. Also, I have a little boy, so I'll be taking him into consideration with who I couple up with, too.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? Someone with emotional intelligence for one. Someone who is really confident but not cocky. They can hold a room, communicate… oh, and biceps!
WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST ICK? Bad manners, being rude, not saying please and thank you. I'd rather someone be overly polite than not say it at all.
NAME: Harrison
AGE: 22
OCCUPATION: US college soccer player and student
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? Personality is a big thing, so it depends who I vibe with in there.
WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST ICK? I don't like it when girls have celebrity crushes. If I'm with a girl I want them to have eyes for me, not talking about another guy when we're watching a film, ha!

Shock moment Harry tries to break up Love Island couple telling girl ‘you're The One'
Mollie Quirk, Senior Showbiz Reporter Published: Invalid Date, A VILLA hunk tried to break up a Love Island couple telling the girl 'you're The One' in a shocking moment. During Friday night's episode, Harry seemingly made a move on an old flame after smooching Yasmin last night. 4 4 4 At the start of the series, Harry had his sights set on Shakira before he snuck out of the bedroom and had a steamy night with Helena. Things then ended between Harry and Shakira, though he did tell her he thought they would have "unfinished business". After coupling up with Helena, things seemed to be going well before his head got turned by new girl Yasmin. This week, Harry had some steamy chats with Yasmin, with the pair even sneaking off to the hideaway during the day for a snog. But now Harry is keen for his old flame, Shakira, who he seems to have "unfinished business" with - as he previously predicted. In tonight's episode, Harry made a move for Shakira again and even told her she's "The One". Pulling Shakira for a chat, Harry asks how she's feeling. "Initially, you were number one for me," Harry said in a candid way to the stunning brunette. He then said that he doesn't think he would do the things he does if they were together, because she "wouldn't stand for it". "It was you," Shakira confessed, "And still is you. But it's your behaviour for me that I can't tolerate." Love Island first look: Are Harry and Shakira back on the cards? Harry then admitted that he wanted to spend some more time with her and rekindle what they had at the start. "If that could possibly be arranged?" he pleaded. Shakira then said: "It could be arranged." Love Island 2025 full lineup Harry Cooksley: A 30-year-old footballer with charm to spare. Shakira Khan: A 22-year-old Manchester-based model, ready to turn heads. Megan Moore: A payroll specialist from Southampton, looking for someone tall and stylish.

He was released with no further action taken and denies any wrongdoing. Sophie Lee: A model and motivational speaker who has overcome adversity after suffering life-changing burns in an accident. Blu Chegini: A boxer with striking model looks, seeking love in the villa. "Shakira and Ben were my favourites. Even Shakiras mum said she doesn't like Harry." A second added: "I've said all along half of Harry's behaviour is because he doesn't want to be with Helena he wants Shakira." While a third penned: "Harry is such a player. I would not trust him a thing he says." The brunette beauty is currently coupled up with Ben, though things between the pair haven't been great of late. Ben has made some comments to Shakira that have proved to be problematic. At the beginning of the series, he chose another girl and said it "humbled" Shakira when he did so.
