The Irish star shocked people three years ago when she revealed she’s never had an orgasm. Growing up in a religious and strict household, sex and sex education was a taboo that Yewande never learnt about.
The former Love Island star has now teamed up with Channel 4 to bring together a documentary that’ll dive deep into female pleasure, confirmed Daily Star. Yewande struggled with a lot of anxiety and shame about sex and masturbation was preached to be ‘the dirtiest sin.’

Love Island’s Yewande on her sex education project
Yewande hopes that her efforts will help someone who’s been in a similar environment or has never experienced orgasms. She shared:

I remember one of the things I said to producers was 'don't tell me what we're doing' because I won't get a wink of sleep and be thinking about it every single day.
They would literally tell me the day before 'oh you're going to a sex party' and I think it was for the best.
