Love Island's Yasmin: Her age, Instagram, job and more revealed

Love Island's Yasmin: Her age, Instagram, job and more revealed

Cosmopolitan17 hours ago

We may only be in week two of Love Island but it appears we may have found the ultimate bombshell for the season, as newbie Yasmin Pettet is bombshelling like no other. The 24-year-old entered the Villa at the end of last week and has caused quite the stir thanks to her forward energy and going after exactly who and what she wants.
Since entering the Villa, she's divided viewers with some calling her out for stepping on other peoples' toes, while many are loving the bombshell energy she is bringing, with even Love Island voiceover Iain Stirling praising Yasmin's work on the show.
In a recent TikTok, Iain said: "10 years in the game, and we've got a new elite Islander on our hands. Yasmin, congratulations, you're doing God's work."
Yep, it's safe to say we're obsessed and this is everything you need to know about the bombshell that is Yasmin Pettet.
Yasmin is 24 years old and her birthday appears to be in February.
From the looks of her Instagram it appears Yasmin is a Pisces, this means she's a water sign. Pisces tend to be "empathetic, mystical, pleasure-seeking, romantic, imaginative and impressionable," which, from what we've seen so far, definitely seems to match up to the vibe Yasmin is getting off.
Yasmin currently works as a commercial banking executive.
Yasmin is based in London.
Ahead of going into the Villa, Yasmin starred in an official Love Island audio described video where she described what she looked like. She revealed she is half English and half Persian.
Also revealed in the audio described video, Yasmin is 5 ft 5.
Ahead of going into the Villa, Yasmin told ITV she wanted to find a guy who is: "fit, has a nice body and who is funny with a bit of banter."
She also doesn't want to date a stingy guy.
If you want to find out even more about Yasmin head to her Instagram at the handle @yasminpettet111, where she regularly posts pictures from her nights out with friends and at boujie dinners.
She does indeed, however, right now there's no posts on her account at the handle @yasminpettet111.
Right now Yasmin is officially coupled up with Shea.
What hasn't happened more like! In the week she's been in the Villa, Yasmin has been busy. She entered during the fifth episode and interrupted the boys' night alongside other new bombshells Malisha and Emily.
The trio got to know the boys, which was being streamed back the girls in the Villa in real time and Yasmin chose to take Harry away for some one on one time to get to know him. They seemed to get on very well, but upon arriving back in the Villa, Harry pulled back a little bit.
Yasmin then got to know the other boys and formed a small connection with Shea, who chose to recouple with her during the next time around the fire pit.
However, following her recoupling, Yasmin then started getting flirty with Dejon and spending more time with Harry. And in last night's episode after many flirty conversations with Harry, the pair snuck off to the Hideaway where they shared multiple secret kisses while in the hot tub.
Their kisses were then revealed during the game at the end of last night's episode leading to shock from the rest of the group. It seems that wherever Yasmin goes, so too does the drama, and we are so here for it.
Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX

'White Lotus' star Jason Isaacs reflected on managing money 'immaturely.' A financial planner breaks down how to avoid doing the same.

For a movie star, Jason Isaacs says his financial situation isn't what you'd expect. "People will think I have huge stockpiles of money," the "White Lotus" star told Vulture in an interview published on June 16. "But sadly, what I've done rather immaturely is expand my outgoings to match my incomings and pretty much spent everything I've earned over the years." The English actor has more than 168 credits on IMDB dating back to 1988, including iconic roles such as Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter film adaptations and Col. William Tavington in the 2000 hit "The Patriot." But while Isaacs has long enjoyed a high-powered and lucrative career — Business Insider previously reported he, and every other top-billed actor on the show, earned $40,000 per episode of "White Lotus" — his admission is indicative of a common financial misstep that plagues high-earners: lifestyle creep. "It's really common to have lifestyle creep, and it's basically this phenomenon: When you earn more money, you spend more money," Robert Persichitte, a certified financial planner, told Business Insider. "People will see extra money in their bank account, and then they'll spend it, and then they get used to it, and it gets kind of locked into your lifestyle — and it becomes really, really difficult to get out of it." Representatives for Isaacs did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider. 'Do you want to be rich, or do you want to be wealthy?' Lifestyle creep is most insidious when you begin spending your extra income on big-ticket items like expensive cars, fancy homes, or recurring subscription expenses like gym memberships, Persichitte said. That's not to say more modest luxuries like spa services or a trendy wardrobe can't add up, but he said those types of transactions are easier to stop splurging on if your financial situation changes. "It's a very common scenario: You get somebody who has their first high-paying job, and they get excited, they go out and spend it, and then about six months later, they realize they hate that high-paying job," Persichitte said. "If you bought a new car or bought a new house, that is a very, very difficult decision to walk back." Isaacs is far from the only celebrity to experience a problem with lifestyle creep. Al Pacino, in his 2024 autobiography, said he went from a $50 million fortune to "broke" because he didn't control his spending. Other stars — from Michael Jackson to Mike Tyson — have also racked up tremendous amounts of debt despite having multimillion-dollar incomes. While it may be tempting to adopt a more lavish lifestyle or emulate your favorite celebrity's spending habits if you receive a promotion or financial windfall, Persichitte cautions against it. Persichitte recalled a 2008 Time interview with Flo Rida, in which the rapper said mogul Rick Ross advised that, in order to make more money, Flo Rida should spend "with the confidence of someone who knows he's going to make a lot more." "I wouldn't recommend that," Persichitte said. "And the logic to me is: Do you want to be rich, or do you want to be wealthy?" The difference is that a rich person's financial situation hinges on their next paycheck, which means a job loss or emergency or an impending prison sentence — which was likely in the future for Isaacs' character in "White Lotus" — could make it all crumble. In comparison, Persichitte said, a wealthy person has long-term stability because they've prioritized sound investments that allow them more control over their finances. The easiest way to avoid lifestyle creep is to have a plan for your money so it's not just sitting in your bank account, Persichitte said. Whether that be a 401(k) or locking some portion of your funds away in a CD account, nearly anything is better than having your liquid cash available in your checking account — but "the more invisible, the better," he added. "The further away you can keep that money from the checking account, the less likely you are going to have that lifestyle creep," Persichitte said. "If your net pay doesn't go up, you don't feel rich, and you don't feel the need to spend." Speaking to Vulture, Isaacs said that he has turned down multiple roles over the years that would have offered him a more substantial nest egg to lean back on. While he said he doesn't regret the moves "careerwise or artistically," he acknowledged it is a financial sore spot for him. "There's a number of things I could have done over the years that would've made me rich," Isaacs said. "And now that I'm toward the autumn of my career, I think maybe I'm an idiot and I should have done some of those things and just banked it, because other people do."

Servers blast parents whose kids make their jobs hell: ‘It's not a McDonald's PlayPlace'

Parents are being served up some serious etiquette lessons. A server says many in the industry dislike when mindless moms and dads dine at restaurants with their unruly kids in tow. But while other patrons may direct their ire at the offspring, many professionals say parents are the ones who should shoulder the blame if their children misbehave. 'Servers don't want to shame families or discourage them from going out to eat,' Alana Fineman, a comedian and server who posts restaurant skits on TikTok, told 'Parents are usually…trying their best.' However, Fineman, who hails from Southern California, says there are some mistakes moms and dads do make in restaurants. 'The phrase, 'The customer is always right' is dying out,' the server dished. Below, the errors that reveal more about the parents than they do about their children. Part of being a kid is making a mess, but when parents leave it to the bussers to clean up, that's when it becomes a problem. 'It's one thing when a baby throws food from his high chair — it's another when kids rip open sugar packets and dump them on the floor or finger-paint with ketchup on the walls,' Fineman said. 'That usually means that a parent is not paying attention or allowing it to happen.' If a kid throws up or there's food all over the walls and floors, it's the busser that cleans it up. Most restaurants don't have the space for children to be running around wildly, which could lead to destruction. If a child runs into a server, broken glass can end up on the floor, food can fall and there's the potential of delayed orders and injuries. 'If you're carrying a tray of five martinis or plates of boiling-hot food and a child runs in front of you, you can drop it on the floor or onto a person,' Fineman said 'Kids shouldn't run through a restaurant — it's not a McDonald's PlayPlace,' she declared. During an incident at her restaurant, there were kids that 'climbed over a fence and onto the street, where they threw rocks onto the dining patio.' While no one got injured, an employee at the restaurant 'did the parenting' and lectured the children. When kids get to a certain age, they're able to express themselves and order their own food. Oftentimes, the parents will say to their child, 'Tell the lady what you want.' And while Fineman mostly finds this kind of conversation 'funny and endearing,' it can sometimes be an issue if the child won't speak for themselves — and the parent persists. 'Every so often, a parent says, 'We're not moving on until you learn to order,'' Fineman explained. 'I can't always be a part of it when I'm really busy.' Typically, picky eaters aren't a problem for servers at restaurants — unless the parent has big expectations, Fineman said. She claimed that some parents will get 'irate' if the restaurant's menu is restrictive or if the chef can't make a very specific meal. 'If it's a slow day, they might be able to…but not every time,' says Fineman. 'There needs to be a contingency plan for what your child can eat.' There's apparently a 'fascinating phenomenon' where parents don't include their children in a reservation, not realizing that they, too, count as guests — even if they'll be using a high chair, taking up the same space as a regular chair. Fineman guessed that perhaps some parents do this to not have to pay automatic gratuity for larger parties, but she believes that most simply don't realize. This could lead to a problem on busy days when the family will ultimately end up waiting longer for a table that can accommodate them. 'There can be an unfortunate domino effect in the restaurant industry,' Fineman said. 'Miscalculating three people can affect the next 45 minutes.'
