Love Island fans were left cringing at their TV screens during the latest episode of Aftersun after a guest made a “nasty” comment about Mehdi Edno.
The hit spin-off show returned for another instalment on Sunday (June 25) with Bristol babe Maya Jama back at the helm.
Joining Maya to discuss the latest shenanigans from the famous villa were Indiyah Polack, Sam Thompson and rapper Stefflon Don.

But things took an awkward turn when the Hurtin’ Me hitmaker was quick to pass judgement on Mehdi – who entered the show on day one.
And it’s fair to say Aftersun’s host Maya, the studio audience and viewers at home were left stunned at Stefflon Don’s quip.
“I don’t know if he even likes females, I’m not going to lie,” she said.
Looking rather shocked, Maya replied: “Oh no,” as the studio audience gasped before Stefflon went on.
She added: “I’m not sure you know. Or he likes both. He’s giving a bit of both.”
Trying to quickly move on, Maya chimed in and said: “He can do whatever he likes.”
The rapper’s outrageous remark didn’t go amiss from viewers at home, who reckon show producers were in panic mode as soon as she said it.
“Maya’s reaction aswell was killing me. She probs had producers shouting in her earpiece,” said one viewer on Twitter.
Another even joked that Maya was getting fired because of the moment.
“Maya being fired after bringing stefflon don on as a guest on aftersun and her calling Mehdi fruity,” said another viewer.
“I know the producers were shouting in Maya’s earpiece,” said a third person, while someone else agreed: “The producers are screaming in Maya’s ears.”
Other viewers were quick to condemn the rapper, with one person raging: “That was really unnecessary. We should not be questioning ppl’s sexuality in 2023. Whitney, like Ella, needs a new guy. Let’s leave it at that.”
A second penned: “I don’t even like Mehdi but this was disrespectful and very distasteful.”
“To go on live TV during pride month and openly speculate about someone’s sexual identity is so wrong and so nasty,” proclaimed another angry viewer.
Medhi is currently coupled up with Whitney Adebayo on the ITV2 show.
But that didn’t stop the French hunk from snogging every girl in the villa during the rather sexy heart race challenge on Sunday (June 25).
