LOVE Island star Leah Kateb has responded to calls from fans for her and Kanye West to link up.
The reality star opened up about her romantic life outside the villa during an appearance on Call Her Daddy with Alex Cooper.
During the discussion, Alex asked Leah, 24, if she had ever dated any professional athletes.
Leah is from Calabasas, California, where many celebrities live.
“Who hasn’t? They’re so easily f**kable my grandmas probably f**ked one,” Leah said.
“Sorry, that was rude. Grandma has not f**ked one!”
Asked which sports, Leah said basketball and football but did not name the stars.
“But only one [football player]. I think he literally sings now or something. They won the Super Bowl though. He chimed in,” she said.
“I f**ked him because I was dying over my ex.”
Alex then asked Leah about rumors that she and Kanye, 47, should get together – if they haven’t already.
The rumors stemmed from a TikTok video claiming that Leah once dated a rapper.

“Should I move on?” Alex followed up.
“Can you?” Leah responded.
“Ask me more about Rob [Rausch], suddenly I want to talk about him!”

SPEAKING OUT
Leah had no shortage of. things to say about her ex-boyfriend on the podcast.
She and Rob were linked on Season 6 of Love Island.
They had a major connection early on in the show and left a lasting impression on fans.
Rob opened up to Alex on Call Her Daddy, sharing his side of the relationship on the show.
During the podcast appearance, he claimed that he and Leah are still friends.
Leah made it all the way to the Love Island finale alongside her partner Miguel Harichi.
She moved on with Miguel after Rob formed a connection with other women, including Andrea who was brought in as a bombshell and quickly eliminated.
Leah confessed on Call Her Daddy that she was “mortified” by some of the comments Rob made about their relationship during the show, including him saying that he felt “no sexual chemistry” with her.
Rob denied ever saying that, however.
“Every bad thing I ever thought about myself literally just swarming in my head,” she said.
“I’ve never felt that embarrassed in my life. I felt so unwanted, so gross.
“Literally every bad thing I’ve thought about myself was confirmed in that moment.”
Leah said she didn’t know why Rob said what he said, asking why he would specifically say that about any woman.
“I feel like it’s taken me a while to get to a place where I’m like, oh, I feel good about myself of how I look,” she said.
“I’m very critical about myself. And I think that it just took me, I don’t know, I think it put me in a very bad head space. I’ll jut tell you that.”
She started tearing up, saying that Rob’s words were “hurtful.”
“I wouldn’t have guessed he felt like that,” she continued. “It was just shocking.”
Alex also got emotional, admitting that all women could related to what Leah was experiencing and feeling in that moment.
“You feel so embarrassed by…I thought we had something here and you literally are off of me,” said Alex.
Rob also had kind words for Leah on the podcast, telling Alex he thinks she’s “an amazing person. so f**king funny.”
Viewers were rooting for Rob and Leah to get back together all throughout the season.
“I want Rob and Leah back together. The chemistry is too raw I’m sorry!” one viewer wrote in a post on X earlier this year.
“I’m rooting for Rob and Leah. Like why can’t they just be together?!?!?” Asked another fan.
