Love Island fans demand 'bully' be removed from villa and threaten to call Ofcom

Less than two weeks into the 2023 summer series of Love Island, ITV viewers have already threatened to make complaints to Ofcom over the as the drama heats up in the villa.

Unimpressed viewers are particularly concerned with the 'bullying behaviour' they have seen happen before their eyes.

Fans of the ITV2 show have taken to Twitter in this week to call out producers for 'allowing Molly Marsh to be bullied' by other contestants after an 'uncomfortable' few days in the villa.

Amid the ongoing love triangle between Molly, Mitch, and Zachariah, some viewers have called out Molly for being a 'game player', however, others have called out the way in which some of the other girls have treated her as she continues to navigate who she has stronger feelings for.

On Wednesday night, Whitney called Molly the 'biggest game player' after the challenge, as Tyrique dubbed the blonde a 'people pleaser' to Zach over the love triangle with Mitchel.

Molly was also called the 'two faced one', with Jess making a comment about Molly when she left the room after she decided to sleep outside to get away from Mitchel.

After Jess's harsh comment, and the other islander's behaviour towards Molly, several Love Island viewers took to Twitter to threaten to complain to Ofcom over Molly seemingly being singled out and 'bullied' in the villa.

"Jess is not a nice person. She’ll be gone soon. All mouth, glad to see her storm off tonight couldn’t happen to a nicer person!!! She’s that mean girl from school with fake friends. Bully - Love Island producers seriously have a word," one fan fumed.

"Jess is a bully. What’s with this hate for Molly? Feel like calling Ofcom over this," another echoed.

"Regardless how you feel about Molly, you can't deny the fact that Jess is an insecure nasty bully. There I said it," someone else raged.

While a fourth added: "Ofcom will be getting LOTS of calls after this episode tonight. Blatant bullying."

More fans even suggested that producers should remove Jess from the show over her 'telling' behaviour.

The Mirror has reached out to a Love Island spokesperson for comment.

Love Island continues at 9PM on ITV2 and ITVX.
