Love Island Australia winners Yana and Kye were left with a $30,000 prize after Dylan took $20,000 from the pot during the ‘Love or Money’ challenge, and Yana has revealed what the two-time Islander spent the money on.
The challenge, which took place in the final week, saw host Sophie Monk offer the remaining Islanders a cash prize of $20,000, but taking it meant they’d have to leave the villa immediately. Dylan decided to take the cash and bail, meaning his partner, Kodi, was dumped as well.
During the Truth Bike segment, which aired in the finale, Kodi was asked if Dylan had split the money with her, to which she replied “No”. Dylan jumped in and said she could expect some, but Yana has since confirmed that he chose to keep it all for himself.
“He didn’t even give her anything. He sent a photo of his new car to our group chat, showing off what he spent it on, and we all just had a crack at him being like, ‘You’re a dog,'” Yana told Chattr. “It’s also a sh**tbox.”
Yana’s revelation about Dylan is especially interesting, considering that he told 9Now that he is using the money to fly home to Ireland to see his sister,
“My sister lost her baby this year and she wants to fly home to mum. That’s all she wants to do but her and her boyfriend are getting sponsored so it’s a lot of money. I’m gonna pay for flights in February to spend three weeks at home with mum,” Dylan told the publication.
What will Kye and Yana spend their Love Island prize money on?
Kye and Yana’s portion of the prize money was considerably lower than previous seasons, thanks to Dylan’s move.
While Kye told Chattr that it was frustrating that the amount had been reduced, he understands why Dylan made the choice he did.
“It made sense for him to take it; there were three solid couples in the end, and it was probably the right decision in the moment. But, also, now that we have won, it’s a bit disappointing.”
Yana added that it’s “a bit s**t now that we’ve won.”
Kye pointed out that Yana was clearly a fan favourite this season, and for that reason, he wants the money to be spent on her.
“Yana’s now made a massive Christmas list, with a lot of Louis Vuitton on it, and I think we winning was definitely because of her, so I think I’ll treat her for Christmas this year,” he said.
