London’s Soho was sizzling with drama last night as Love Island heartthrob Jamie Rhodes was spotted getting cozy with not one, but two villa bombshells, Andrada Pop and Emma Munro. Meanwhile, his ex, Yasmin Pettet, was partying just around the corner, in what’s being called the ultimate snub after their not-so-amicable split.
The former couple, who captured hearts during this summer’s Casa Amor twist on the ITV2 dating show, secretly called it quits last month. Despite their claims of parting as friends, their frosty avoidance in Soho last night tells a different story. While Yasmin dazzled at the grand opening of Clays Soho, a chic new cocktail bar, Jamie was stealing the spotlight at a nearby event, flanked by Andrada and Emma.
The trio turned heads on the red carpet, with Jamie looking effortlessly cool in an all-black outfit, topped with a sleek brown leather jacket and dark sunglasses. Andrada, the Irish stunner, set pulses racing in a jaw-dropping green dress with a thigh-high slit, while Emma oozed sophistication in a chic brown two-piece. Social media went wild when Andrada’s Instagram Stories showed Jamie playfully posing between the two beauties, his hands resting on their legs. Later, the group was spotted laughing and sipping drinks together, even diving into a quirky ball pit bath for a cheeky photo op.
Jamie and Yasmin’s romance had been a fan favorite, sailing smoothly to a third-place finish on Love Island. But cracks began to show after their awkward appearance at the National Television Awards (NTAs), where The Sun revealed Yasmin was seen holding hands with The Traitors star Freddie Fraser at the after-party. Fans were left baffled when the couple later posted videos insisting they had already split before the NTAs, despite Yasmin gushing about their relationship on the red carpet earlier that evening. “We’re really good,” she told The Sun with a beaming smile, even hinting at their shared excitement for attending such glamorous events together.
A top TV insider spilled the tea to The Sun, revealing the real reason behind the couple’s carefully orchestrated breakup narrative. “Being in a couple post-Love Island opens doors to lucrative deals,” they explained. “There were likely discussions behind the scenes to keep their romance alive for as long as possible.” But when Yasmin was caught cozying up to Freddie, the facade crumbled, forcing Jamie and Yasmin to confirm their split. “Jamie didn’t want fans thinking Yasmin cheated,” the source added, “and she didn’t want to look like she was mistreating him.”
While Yasmin parties on, Jamie seems to be moving forward at full speed, turning heads with Andrada and Emma, both of whom stirred up plenty of drama in the villa. Andrada famously pursued Dejon Noel-Williams, while Emma’s history as Harry Cooksley’s ex kept viewers glued to their screens. With sparks flying and Soho as the backdrop, it’s clear Jamie’s race for love is far from over—and fans are here for every second of it!
