Love Island has been hit with 1126 Ofcom complaints in its final week amid bullying claims and fans left fuming over the result
Love Island has been hit with 1126 Ofcom complaints in its final week.
The ITV2 final aired this week with Jess and Sammy taking the crown in a shocking result. It looks like fans were not happy with the result, as 219 complaints were made to Ofcom from viewers who objected to the result. Earlier in the week, 913 complaints were made, most of which were about Mitch’s treatment of Abi with fans sharing their concern for her welfare.
For the episode on Tuesday July 25, fans rushed to Ofcom to complain about Mitch’s treatment of Abi. He had famously criticised her throughout the series after they split up and he decided to crack on with Ella B. Fans fumed at Mitch’s treatment of the flight attendant, especially in relation to his comments following the Grafties.
Other fans also fumed over the result, saying that Jess and Sammy shouldn’t have won. Whitney and Lochan, who placed second, were said to be favourites to win. Tyrique and Ella came third whilst Molly and Zachariah came fourth.
