‘FBoy Island’ Stars Tamaris, Mia and Louise Break Down Finale Twist: ‘We Never Fumble the Bag’
Katcy Stephan SPOILER ALERT: This piece contains spoilers for the finale of “FBoy Island,” now streaming on HBO Max. Just as “FBoy Island” stars Mia Emani Jones, Louise Barnard and Tamaris Sepulveda prepared to make their final decisions, host Nikki Glaser presented the three leading ladies with a surprise third option: They could choose neither of their remaining two men, and instead keep the $100,000 for themselves. In the end, only Tamaris chose the money, while Mia and Louise gambled with FBoy contestants Mercedes Knox and Peter Park, who both opted to split the prize money with them. The ladies chatted with Variety ahead of the season finale to reflect on their experiences, and give an update on their love lives. “I had in the back of my head, ‘Maybe I should just screw him over before he screws me over,’” Louise recalls of her final choice. “But I felt like that would be horrible to Benedict, because he’s also a great option. And so I decided it wouldn’t make sense for me to take the whole $100K.” Mia came much closer to accepting the cash, revealing that she took over 40 minutes to make the call.
