More than 14,000 Love Island complaints rejected by Ofcom

More than 14,000 complaints about the latest series of Love Island have been rejected by Ofcom, including some regarding bullying and raising concerns about contestants’ mental health.

Ofcom received 14,167 complaints about the ITV reality series, including 24 about spin-off show Love Island: Unseen Bits, with the highest number of complaints coming on July 24, which saw 3,549 complaints relating to alleged bullying behaviour towards contestant Shakira Khan.

Other complaints related to further alleged bullying of Khan, as well as fellow contestants Toni Laites, Yasmin Pettet, Meg Moore and Helena Ford, concern over contestants’ mental health throughout the series, and Dejon Noel-Williams’s behaviour towards Moore.

бяха отправени спомагателни недоволства по отношение на продуцентите на шоуто, които връщат състезателката Меган Форте Кларк назад в програмата, откакто тя беше изхвърлена от вилата, и хипотетичното съревнование и дискриминация, основана на пола.

An ofcom, че представител, който се отнася деликатно. Тези прочувствено заредени или конфронтационни подиуми могат да разстроят някои фенове. Но съгласно нас отрицателното държание във вилата не беше показано в позитивна светлина, а състезателите бяха видени да поддържат или да се извиняват. Khan and Harry Cooksley finished as runners-up.

The show is presented by Maya Jama and sees contestants move into the show’s villa in an attempt to find love and win a £50,000 prize pot.

Previous Love Island winners have included Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Davide Sanclimenti, Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer, and Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies, who have since split up.

Couples who, despite not winning, remain together include Olivia Buckland and Alex Bowen, Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury and Dami Hope and Indiyah Polack

ITV declined to comment on the complaints.
